When Books Became Just Papers
I love books (not textbooks ya). I love to read. I love to write eventhough i'm no so good at it. When people love to read, defenitely they have their favourite author eh? So am i. I love to read Danielle Steel and VC Andrews. But somehow, the books they produced were less and less interesting lately. It never happen to me to be dissapointed after reading these two authors books but somehow i felt it when i finished reading DS 2 books, Safe Harbour and Answered Prayers. I tried to find why and i finally realize her plots and twists and problems even the endings were similar to each other. And when i check further, i found out both books were among the newest of hers. Is she running out of idea or what? It goes the same to VC Andrews. Father molest daughter, daughter love uncle, sister crazy about half brother and something like that.
It quite dissapointing for me because when this happens, i always thought they are now writing for fortunes and fames not for passions. It made me felt like i'm just buying a stack of papers with no literature in it. I hate to go to the bookstore and start finding for another author's and try to get used to their way of writing. I found that Nora Roberts' and Barbara Taylor's are quite interesting but somehow i missed to read my fav authors' piecework.
Untuk buku Melayu, aku cukup minat pada gaya penulisan Lamia Aimal, Ahadiat Akashah, Norhayati Ibrahim. Pada aku penulis-penulis ni cukup bijak membawa pembaca ke dalam dunia penceritaannya. Tapi selalunya konflik dan kesudahan dalam penulisan diorang ni agak mengecewakan. Mungkin terlalu sinonim dan amat mudah di agak. Klimaks tak begitu berperasaan. Mungkin sebenarnya aku dah letih dengan cerita cinta atau cerita kejayaan keluarga mengharungi tragedi dalam hidup. Aku mula rasa muak. Mungkin dah terlalu banyak.
Sekarang aku cuba mengubah haluan kepada buku-buku kisah benar atau biography. Teringin benar nak baca pasal Nicholas Tzar dan Geisha tapi belum berkesempatan. Khabarnya Geisha dah difilemkan. Harap aku dapat baca sebelum cerita tu keluar.
