Setelah
sepanjang tahun 2013 saya kalap mengikuti 6 Reading
Challenge alias tantangan membaca demi menyusutkan jumlah timbunan buku
yang belum terbaca (yang dalam kenyataannya jumlah timbunan malah semakin
bertambah), tahun 2014 ini saya akhirnya menguatkan diri untuk ikutan RC lagi.
Kali ini, blog PerpusKecil bikin RC yang unik banget, fresh dan sedikit bikin ngakak
saat membacanya. Gimana enggak? RC
ini telak banget menyindir para penimbun buku seperti saya. Setahun
minimal wajib membaca 14 buku dari 14 kategori yang sudah ditetapkan.
Berikut
ini 14 kategori dan judul buku yang insya
Allah bakal saya baca dari masing-masing kategori tersebut:
1. Visit The Country: Read a book that has setting in a
country that you really want to visit in real life. Make sure the setting has a
big role in the book and it can make you know a little bit more about your
dream destination.
Inferno karangan Dan Brown,
settingnya Italia, saya pengen banget ke Italia J
2. Cover Lust: Pick a book from your shelf that you bought
because you fell in love with the cover. Is the content as good as the cover? The Dash of Magic. Covernya
beginian hehehe
3. Blame it on Bloggers: Read a book because you’ve read the
sparkling reviews from other bloggers. Don’t forget to mention the blogger’s
names too! Anne and the Green Gables, ini racun
dari wa bajaj.
4. Bargain All The Way: Ever buying a book because it’s so
cheap you don’t really care about the content? Now it’s time to open the book
and find out whether it’s really worth your cents. The Magician Guild by Trudy
Carnavan
5. (Not So) Fresh From the Oven: Do you remember you
bought/got a new released book last year but never had a chance to read it? Dig
it from your pile and bring back the 2013.
Foucault Pendulum by Umberto Eco
6. First Letter’s Rule: Read a book which title begins with
the same letter as your name (for me, Astrid means A, and I can read anything
that started with the letter A). Remember: Articles like “a”, “an” or “the”
doesn’t count :)
antara mau baca the Dante Club atau Digitarium, saya belum memutuskan yang mana
7. Once Upon a Time: Choose a book that’s been published for
the first time before you were born (not necessarily has to be a classic book,
just something a little bit older than you is okay. You can read the most
recent edition if you want to) The Wizard of Earthsea
8. Chunky Brick: Take a deep breath, and read a book that
has more than 500 pages. Yep, the one that you’ve always been afraid of! Antara Inheritance atau American Gods atau Inkspell yang
semuanya di atas 600 halaman
9. Favorite Author:
You like their books, but there are too many titles. This is your chance,
choose a book that’s been written by your fave author but you haven’t got time
to read it before.
The Casual Vacancy by JK Rowling
10. It’s Been There Forever: Pick up a book that has been
there on your shelf for more than a year, clean up the dust and start to read
it now :) Dunia Sophie hihihi sudah 2 tahun
tertimbun
11. Movies vs Books: You’ve seen the movie adaptation (or
planned to see it soon) but never had time to read the book. It’s time to read
it now, so you can compare the book vs the movie. Menunggu film yang mau rilis
di 2014.
12. Freebies Time: What’s the LAST free book you’ve got?
Whether it’s from giveaway, a birthday gift or a surprise from someone special,
don’t hold back any longer. Open the book and start reading it now :D The Exploits of Gerand
13. Not My Cup of Tea: Reach out to a genre that you’ve
never tried (or probably just disliked) before. Whether it’s a romance, horror
or non fiction, maybe you will find a hidden gem! Macarin Anjing atau Cintapuccino.
14. Walking Down The Memory Lane: Ever had a book that you
loved so much as a kid? Or a book that you wish you could read when you were
just a child? Grab it now and prepare for a wonderful journey to the past :)
Comic books or graphic novels are allowed!
Lima Sekawan: Sarjana Misterius.
