Christian Orland is dead, and everyone in his life is doing their best to understand what happened. Especially Woe, the sixteenth Fatality, who knows that she was assigned the wrong case when she stopped his heart, but also knew she had to do it, or risk being destroyed herself. Woe only handles expected death, and not many people expect to die in an accident. However, not many people have the history of Christian Orland. That history is now tormenting his brother Noah, the keeper of all of Christian’s dangerous secrets, his childhood friend Ellery, who he once swore he would love “until he died,” and his girlfriend Melissa, who can’t understand why she is the only person not haunted by ghosts. Woe teams up with the Fatality who she thinks should have had Christian’s case, and the ghosts of Christian’s past to try to solve the mystery of how he ended up as her case. As they try to unravel some of Christian’s lies, they begin to uncover something far more sinister. Together, the most important people in Christian’s life and death must work to restore order from the chaos his death caused in the lives of those who loved him, and in realms he could not imagine, before free will is lost forever. 

The Last Ghost excerpt

The sixteenth Fatality was surprised to find herself on a bridge, but that was where her appointment book told her to go, and thus, that was where she went. Not that she had a choice either way, but she didn’t mind, she liked the order, the predetermination of things. Car after car drove by, and she watched them, looking closely, knowing all the while that they couldn’t see her. A little after eight in the morning, she noticed a car moving erratically on the bridge. She watched as the car seemed to spin, and then crashed through the wooden guard rail and into the water below. She looked over the edge of the bridge as the car; front end first, began to sink into the depths. She peered down the road, waiting for another car to come, some passerby to notice the broken guard rail, someone to help the passengers. After a few minutes passed, she began to wait for someone entirely different.

Knowing that too much time had gone by for there to be a legitimate chance of rescue, she floated down to where the car had entered the water, looking around expectantly for the twelfth Fatality to come and bring a life to an end. He didn’t come. She started to panic, aware of the pain the people in the car must feel. She felt the familiar pulse of the appointment book as the realization began to overtake her. “This is wrong. This is not how it is supposed to be, ”she murmured, as she dove into the water, passed through the passenger side door of the car, and gently took the right hand of the young man, unconscious and bleeding in the front seat. Her icy touch went up through the fingertips, up the arm, and across his chest as it stopped the faintly beating heart. She pulled herself out of the water, dry, but still shivering, and walked back towards the bridge to wait. For a Fatality, she hated the process of death. She had heard that she did not have the glamorous part, that there were various other beings that could comfort humans. Beings whose presence was welcomed, as they said their last goodbyes, or made the pain stop. That was not her assignment. Eventually, sirens blaring, the rescue workers came, and it was with a dull throb that she realized they were already too late by the time that she got to the bridge that day. She had three other appointments that morning, all in hospitals, which was where she normally lingered. She knew some of the other Fatalities who spent time in hospitals, but was not in the mood to socialize with them, to tell them about her terrible day. She never truly felt like one of them anyway. Instead, she knew where she had to go, she just didn’t want to visit that place.

This was an enjoyable read! I have been having some health concerns so  have been laid up on bed rest so this book surely took my mind off of things! I liked the inventive plot of the story and the book had a unique all around feel about it. I didn’t enjoy the characters as much as the storyline so my rating is about a 3.75 but never the less, I feel that the writing style was good and unique! I always enjoy unique stories mixed with the paranormal and I am interested in reading Jamie Blake’s other works!

Wow, why you got to call me out like this?

Me: “Yeah I read all the time! I’m always reading a book-”

My books sitting unread on my bookshelf:

[rhythms-booktalk]

Judul : Ayana Journey to Islam

Penulis : Ayana Moon

Penerbit : Gramedia

Tebal : 156 hlm (+ cover dan daftar isi)

Annyeonghaseyo..

Hi, bookluv

Kali ini kita cerita tentang buku yang berjudul Ayana Journey to Islam

Overall, this book talk about gimana ceritanya Ayana yang memiliki nama asli Jihye (sebelum convert to islam) menjadi Mu'alaf

Lahir dari keluarga terhormat, yang nota bene berkecukupan dan berkecimpung di dunia politisi. Ayana kecil tumbuh dengan keluarga dan lingkungan tidak mengenal adanya Tuhan, bahkan dalam keluarga nya sendiri lebih sering membicarakan topik politik dari pada agama.

Saking dekatnya keluarga Ayana dengan politik, bahkan sehari-hari Ayana kecil terbiasa menonton berita dari pada film-film yang biasa di tonton oleh anak seumuran dirinya. Bahkan dia sendiri pernah berdebat dengan guru nya perihal politik, dan sempat menjatuhkan pilihannya sendiri terhadap salah satu calon politisi di umur 8 tahun.

Ketika seumuran dia apa yang kamu lakukan..?

Tumbuh dengan keluarga yang cerdas, ia dikenal dengan sokok yang pintar dengan banyak nya penghargaan yang ia raih, juara satu.? Udah biasa.

Suatu kali kakeknya yang sering bolak balik Amerika Serikat membicarakan topik perihal Islam di Timur Tengah, ketika itu sedang hangat-hangatnya isu tentang perang di Irak.

Nah, hal itu memicu keingintahuan Ayana tentang timur tengah, yang nota bene pemikiran orang-orang disekitar nya tentang islam sebatas terorisme dan hal negatif lainnya.

Perjalanan dia hingga mengucapkan syahadatnya, itulah yang akan kamu telusuri dari buku ini. Perjalanan yang mengubah kehidupannya 180°.

Satu hal yang sangat berarti bagiku sebagai seorang muslim ketika membaca buku ini adalah Terlahir dan tumbuh di tengah-tengah keluarga serta lingkungan Islami.

Seperti dalam salah satu Hadist Rasulullah saw. “Setiap manusia yang lahir, mereka lahir dalam keadaan fitrah. Orang tuanya lah yang menjadikannya Yahudi atau Nasrani” (HR. Bukhari-Muslim)
