not without my sister

after a week, i finally finished the book - not without my sister written by kristina, celeste & juliana.. i don't know where do i start with the book review. it's too real to be true. i have mixed feelings reading the book. first, it was unbelievable. then, there were anger. next, i felt so depressed.. it's everything... i'm not into summarizing what's the story all about..but, the fact that this is a true story make it worst..nope.. the language is ok, the storyline is fine.. it's the true story that make it so true to believe. if the statement of true story is not there, i would say the book is so real to be true.. i would have love it..it should be that way.. it should stay as a fiction, non-reality, bombastic imaginery...it is not supposed to be a true story. and as these are true stories, true people, true hearts, true families... and to make it worst, it happen few years back, and might still happen around the world.. i find it very very disturbing. i was so depressed trying hard to complete the book. a friend of mine suggested to just throw out the book, but how could i... how could i just tossed it out when i was half way through..

it is beyond thinking. it is too much to digest. it is too depressing.. imagine this: completing the book is such a torturing moment and way too depressing to me.. how did they do it? how did the girls manage to survive? and am not suprised that so many life decided to opt for death... it is unbearable.
