Burning Sea: Bara Cinta Di Tengah Deru Perang (2009) - Plot & Excerpts
memutuskan nyerah menuntaskan buku ini, padahal dikit lagi... semuanya terlalu terang, mudah dilihat (hanya perlu sedikit menebak). tema yang dianggap bagus banget, serius, mewah, hanya eksplorasinya terlalu sederhana. sederhana bisa menjadi keunggulan sebuah cerita, namun tidak sederhana yang sifatnya kacangan, amat mudah dicerna, tak melibatkan daya pikir alih-alih suspen (padahal, cerita ini berpotensi utk hal-hal tsb). ini bukan buku yang jelek, hanya, barangkali saya tidak suka teh tawar. In the end I found myself wishing the Japanese would storm the beach, kill everybody and put me out of my misery. The plot could have been so interesting had it been written by somebody that can actually write. It was much too wordy with inane dialogue between all of these cast-aways. The characters weren't particularly likable, and there were too many stereotypes, coincidences and contrivances. I found myself skipping big chunks of it just to get the story to move along. The captain, Joshua drove me crazy with his angsty second guessing of everything he did.We read this for our book club and for once I wasn't the only one who couldn't wait to be finished with this book.
