As soon as I got my first paycheck from my first gig, I bought two books from The Book Depository. This book is one of them. I bought this book merely because the price was relatively cheap for an imported book (Rp 82k). I should say that I don‘t consider myself a fan of detective stories and I don‘t read Agatha Christie books. I do read some lighter ones such as Detective Conan and Enid Blyton‘s (Pasukan Mau Tahu and Lima Sekawan!). I‘m not a fan of crime/mystery movie/series either; I watched BBC‘s Sherlock Holmes out of my loyalty to the main actor, lol.So last week when I just finished Orwell‘s 1984 I wanted to read a lighter book, so no nonfiction. I only had three nonfiction books on my currently-reading list so I should pick another book. I thought reading this classic will be as burdening as my experience with The Tale of Two Cities, but turned out it was very fun! I like the illustration and the short story format make this book enjoyable. There are total of twenty three stories with its own curious plot.
