In the middle of the year, it was hard for me to continue my reading because I didn't have any books left (just my excuse :p) and I couldn't afford to buy a new one (excuse. again). However, my will was so big to finish what I've started. Thank God, There was my friend whom I can borrow their books and iPusnas digital library app from the National Library of the Republic of Indonesia. On iPusnas, we can read a lot of ebooks for free! the minus is some of the books are limited or not available, so you have to wait until someone finished their reading. Overall, iPusnas was great and worth downloading.
Here are the book lists that I read in 2021;
7. July: The Happiness Project
Have you ever felt like life is flat? you are not feeling happy nor sad. That's what the author of the book felt like. She has a good job, a lovely family, and a caring friend. But, there was something missing in her life that made her plan something namely the Happiness Project. It was great to read how she consistently did what she wanted to do to make her life happier and has meaning. One thing I learned from this book is to appreciate and to take care of what we have. eaaa.
8. August: Omen
I really enjoyed every page of this novel. It tells about twin girls who don't look similar, one is feminine and the other one is a tomboy. What makes it interesting, they both were envious of each other and one of them was in danger because of jealousy. The plot was unpredictable and made me like huhhhh??? I thought you were kind?! But yeah people are always disappointing.
9. September: Happiness Inside
I love reading self-improvement books, one of them is Happiness Inside from Gobind Vashdev who called himself a heartworker. This book really makes us think from different perspectives which finally keeps us thinking positively. A positive mind leads to a happy life. There is one chapter from this book called "No complain day" that tells about a grandfather and his wife who laugh and are okay even though they had a bit of bad luck. The key to this attitude is to forgive and not to think about it too much and surely not complain. For me, it was a big deal because I like to complain about anything a lot. But, by reading this it really opens my mind to think more wisely and forgive if something bad happens to you because it might be good for you.
10. October: The Alpha Girls Guide
To all the girls out there who are feeling down or wanna know how to be independent, strong, and genius girls. This book is perfect for you. While I read this book, I felt more inspired which made me productive. But, something I know from this book is that I'm not one of the alpha girls and that's okay. Or I don't wanna be one of them? I don't know. #StillLookingforIdentity #Santuyperson
11. November: A simple life
"Happiness is wanting, enjoying, and appreciating what we already have"
A simple life is a collection of thoughts from Desi Anwar. She wrote about topics in daily life like hobbies, happiness and etc. But, behind it all, those little things, there are something precious to learn, to appreciate, and to be grateful about our life. So, if your life is full of demands, live with high expectations which make you overthinking, anxieties, fears, and other bad feelings, you should read this book to ease your mind.
12. December: The Great of Positive Thinking
This book only contains a collection of quotes from intellectuals around the world. If you need inspiration or just need something to put on your IG photo or something else, this book is good to read!. Here are my fav quotes from the book ;
"How much we can do depends on how much we think we can do. When you really believe you can do more, your mind thinks creatively and shows you the way"
" I have found that if you love life, life will love you back"
"Most people are about as happy as they make up their minds to be"
" Recall your little victorious and accomplishments, go over the reasons why you are glad to be alive"
Alhamdulillah, I was able to finish one of my resolutions this year. Reading a book really helps me to more focus since I always do things by multitasking #lol. I hope I can be more consistent to read more books in 2022 and not procrastinate.
