books; bought/borrowed; which i haven't got any chance to read it yet


first picture: famous five (lima sekawan) and five find-outers (pasukan mau tahu) by enid blyton in indonesian translated version; these series (including secret seven and malory towers) were my favorite novels as a child, though up until now i still read it quite frequently sometimes; i bought it earlier at secondhand book shop which frequently invited to my campus.
second picture: soseki's grass on the wayside and light & dark, salinger's a catcher in the rye, and foer's extremely loud & incredibly close; i borrowed soseki's light & dark at my uni's library at the literature section, i have to return it at march twenty-third but i haven't read any pages of it yet.
third picture: dance, dance, dance, hard boiled wonderland, and a wild sheep chase by haruki murakami; my favorite author so far! i was fascinated by norwegian wood before i started to read his other works. to me, his works are simply amazing. it's delicate, whimsical yet magical at the same time; dance, dance, dance was borrowed from my friend and hard boiled wonderland also a wild sheep chase was borrowed from my uni library at the same time as soseki's light & dark. i have to return it at twenty third as well, but so far i only managed to get in the middle of hard boiled wonderland, leaving a wild sheep chase untouched.
fourth: tolstoy's anna karenin and the complete novel of jane austen, vol. 1 (it includes pride & prejudice, sense & sensibility and mansfield park); anna karenin was a gift from my dad when he was back from abroad years ago. i bought jane austen's one a long time ago because at that time that book was in 'sale' section. these two books are two of the longest-book-i-own-but-the-owner-hasn't-got-any-chance-to-read-it-because-she-keeps-procrastinating.
