Book Review- Bidadari Santa Monica


'Bidadari Santa Monica' is an Indonesian book which tells about a tragical love story between Pelita and Effraim, but it ends up with an unpredictable endings. 
Pelita was an illustrator in a magazine. One day, she asked to interview an artist, and this is her first time to met Effraim. As the time goes by, they were in love. But when they arranged their marriage, Effraim was died. Pelita decided to forget Effraim, until one day she met a harpist in Santa Monica, America. People called her as 'Angel of Santa Monica' or 'Bidadari Santa Monica'. Pelita is amazed with that angel's eyes. When Pelita is on her flight to Jakarta, suddenly she met the angel, and the angel asked Pelita to tell every single story of her life.. When they arrived in Jakarta, the angel gave Pelita a blue paint. What is the meaning of blue paint? But, after all, Pelita whispered, "thank you for loving me that much Effraim.."

Seriously, when I read this book, I was surprised with the endings and my eyes can't stop shed tears.. Even though there are some unreasonable parts in this book but overall, it is an amazing book. So, happy reading everyone.. :)
