My bedroom right now is a mess! Haha, and it ain’t beautiful. Dirty laundry on the floor, printer on the bed, postcards and stickers all over my desk, my arms right now literally above them while I’m typing. But one thing that I promise today, no matter what happen, I’m not gonna let anything stop me from being productive. Actually nothing happened today, just some typical and reaaalllyyyy suck situation that I already used to it. Actually…I might severe from Monday Blues syndrome. Right now is Sunday night and I feel like I don’t get anything from my two days in a row holiday and had to go to work tomorrow, nooooo. Well, I actually got few things, but still, feels empty inside. Package from Penerbit Haru arrived to my house yesterday, I literally got a book for free and all I had to do is just post it on my Instagram, no commitment or target, wow now no wonder why so many people obsessed to be a selebgram. I’ll definitely post about it soon but right now I’m gonna blog about another thing… I think two years ago I’ve been to Periplus in Pondok Indah Mall before because I’m looking for an English adult coloring book (just looking, can’t find it anyway), oh and another visit was on the airport when I went to Singapore few years ago. This is actually the first time I went to Periplus since I really love reading imported books. Mostly I bought my books online. Dan ternyata di Periplus lebih murah yaaaaa dibandingkan di online shop hahaha. “Mulai saat ini saya berjanji tidak akan beli buku di online shop lagi kecuali bukunya nggak ada di Periplus…atau kalo covernya bagusan di online shop.” That’s my promise. And I got to say I was mind blown by the collection that they have in Periplus. I don’t even know what to buy, I really want Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them or Beauty and The Beast: Lost in a Book. Tapi entah kenapa pilihan jatuh ke Inside Out – Driven By Emotions. Yes I have watched the movie before but it’s not a crime to read a based-by-the-movie-book. Harus diakui bahwa sejak baca Frozen Heart-nya Frozen, gue jadi sangat tertarik untuk baca versi lain dari sebuah film, dan pilihannya nggak banyak. I hope this Inside Out book is one them. From the cover…I bet you can see that I really love it. It’s dark blue, and it’s hard cover. But this kind of doff hard cover (just like Frozen Heart and Fantastic Beast’s jacket) is not my favorite, it’s good, I have to admit, tapi bahannya terkesan gampang tergores dan…ringkih? Just by touching it akan langsung bikin nggak pede. Tapi tetep aja bagus designnya. Dan kertas dalamnya adalah yang membuat gue terkesan. Harganya murah banget untuk sebuah buku hard cover, bahkan pas gue beli itu Periplus lagi ngasih discount 15% Yang membuat Widi kagum adalah seluruh isi buku menggunakan kertas tebal dan glossy macam calendar dan bagian bawahnya semua berwarna. Menurutnya harusnya itu mahal, tapi menurut gue, Inside Out sudah not on season lagi sehingga (mungkin) harganya memang menurun. Tapi melihat fisiknya secara kesuluruhan buku ini emang kualitasnya tinggi banget. Dan designnya, memang nggak diragukan, bagus dan lucu banget. Yang gue suka adalah ada 2 halaman close up wajah dari kelima emotions itu as this book is told each chapter from their own perspective. Cerita dimulai dari POVnya Joy dan diakhiri dengan POVnya Sadness. Buku ini memang tidak mengandung terlalu banyak hal yang belum diketahui sebelumnya dari film. Hanya kita bisa ngeliat semua dari sudut pandang yang berbeda dan alurnya dikiiiiiiit doang yang beda. Waktu pertama kali baca dari sisi Joy, gue kira “Okay, ini menceritakan hal yang berbeda dari film, yaitu kelanjutannya.” Ternyata enggak. Setelah itu alur seperti semula aja. Just a better and richer perspective, like I said. And a much more chance to get to know the other emotions; Disgust, Anger and Fear. Karena di film banyakan Cuma Joy and Sadness ajah.
Ceritanya ringan, karena memang target pembacanya pasti anak umur sekolahan haha. I love reading children book. Tetep berasa petualangannya, tetep berasa dilemanya, but ah…as I do love the many POV that gave me different perspective and I love how each of the emotions gave me emotions like we do really feel their emotions (three emotions words in one sentence, four, with this one) I don’t feel like I read the book as Riley, but as Anger, Joy, Fear, Sadness and Disgust. Nggak tau gimana cara menjelaskannya lebih terperinci dan jelas lagi, tapi kalo baca bukunya pasti ngerti maksud gue apa, kayak, ketika si Riley marah, it’s not Riley that get angry, it’s Anger that get angry. Sounds confusing but trust me you’ll figure it out when you read the book. Still not sure is it a good thing or a bad thing because I don’t even know who is the main character of the story, haha. But I believe this book is still worth to give it a try, even there are not so many surprises that we might get. I still like it, because, bagaimanapun juga, it’s Disney. And tell me what do you think, either on the book or the movie, who is exactly the main character of Inside Out, is it Riley, or the emotions (five of them) or just one emotion?
