Coffee shop would always be my favorite place to think and have a me-time. Back then when I was working in Besut, I used to go to Secret Recipe many times after school; sometimes twice or thrice a week, to the point where all the workers there recognised me 😆 I love siting alone in a cafe with my coffee, whether I was reading or writing or just watching people. When I read this one motivation book (I forgot which one), one of the things that the author suggests is to have a thinking place where we can develop our thinking skill or something 😄 Ever since then, I tried to find my own thinking place, where I can be creative. And apparently, coffee shop is my perfect thinking place. I have no problem siting alone in a cafe, watching people interact with one another. My housemate used to be so impressed with me so much for that as she said she cannot go and drink alone without being awkward. 😊 For me, I like that -- being alone and having a me-time while reading or writing with a cup of coffee to accompany me. I can be in there hours. Perks of being an introvert maybe. 🤓☕ . #mood #thoughts #coffeetime #bookstagram #ezzywrites (at Richiamo Coffee)

“Stop looking for me, and I will find you.” 💯

"We'll work on plans for those floor-to-ceiling library shelves you wanted to have. You know, the one that smells of both old and new books." -- Fleeting and Forever 🏢📚 One of my fave parts in F&F. I totally love the fact that @ninyatippett makes both heroines of CBB series; Cassandra and Aiko, as those who love to read. Also, Aiko being a writer makes her character very enjoyable to read. I am totally impressed with her strong personality as the plot thickens. 😍 Maximilian really makes me want to sigh all day long haha. He's so dreamy! The fact he's playing both as a carefree playboy in his billionaire world and also as an ever-so-brilliant undercover spy (sort of) makes me feel really anxious as I know something big will eventually makes him choose between fleeting or forever; his past or his present. A huge applause and congrats for you Ninya! I super loveeee this story and can finally let out the big breath that I'd been holding since the first moment I read the book. 😘 For every virtue, there is a vice; In a rush, there will be a restraint; And for a fleeting moment, it will eventually becomes forever. 🤓😆 #ezzywrites #ezzysbookreview #fleetingandforever #cobaltbaybillionaires

I always went into a shutdown mood whenever I finished reading a good book. Books that literally tear your heart apart and make you feel like you are just floating away. I always try to avoid complicated books, you know. Complicated for me here, refer to those books that do not usually end with happy endings. And even if there are happy endings, the plots always been a little crazy ride. Not the simple smooth one. Bcos in reality, life is not really a smooth ride. I’ve finished reading the 2nd book for Cobalt Bay Billionaires, Rush and Restraint, from one of my favorite Wattpad authors. Like in the 1st book, Virtue and Vice, the author included poems, like Pablo Neruda’s. In R&R, she includes poems from Tyler Knott Gregson. In R&R, Vivienne & Oliver have always known each other from little, & it’s safe to say that they will eventually be together in the end. But, as always Ninya is not the cliche-kind of author. Even tho I can sometimes predict the next thing, she always throws me off the balance with her creativity & always makes me want to throw something at the character. If in V&V it’s Sebastian, in R&R it’s obviously Oliver. And I absolutely loveee Vivienne. I think that sometimes people who you love the most also have the power to hurt you the most. Bcos those who we really love are our strengths as well as our weaknesses. No doubt about that. The fact that Vivienne & Oliver keep hurting each other even tho they really love each other shows that there’s a thin line between love & lost, rush & restraint, virtue & vice. Before I end this, let me share something from the book, “… life is always added up in the end no matter how short or long and complicated and ugly the entire equation was. So did people. We were the totality of our actions and choices, victories and defeats, hopes and fears.” A huge congrats for your book Ninya! So in love with your writings. Can’t wait for the next series. Max or Stephen? All the best. Happy reading guys!

To end this, I am forever grateful to have gone through all these, and probably more in the future. Why? As all teach me to be a better person, to learn humility, to never compare my life to others – as there are many people that probably suffer more, and the most important one to never take things for granted and to appreciate little things in life. Farewell 2016 👋🏼, bring it on 2017 💪🏼. May Allah ease. 🤓☺️

I would love to say that as I have an English degree, that’s what makes me love poetry or whatnots. Unfortunately no. I still remember when I was in CFS Nilai, we had to analyze a poem. It was a quiz. And I did it so terribly that I had to go and see my lecturer so that she would not be so angry with me. Thank God she was not angry, and yes thank God she cancelled that quiz. Ever since then, I realized that I had no sense in poetry. I really cannot see the meaning beneath the words and I was pretty sure that I would never understand the feelings beneath the words. Like what people always said, I was wrong. The feelings come after thousandth of reading, I would dare say. I read a lot. A lot here means everyday. A lot here means every waking hours. A lot here means – well you get what I mean. I am literally a walking example of every description you’ve ever read of – a girl who buries her nose in a book (or in my case, e-book), a nerd, a bookworm. That first time was when I was reading a book, I came across a poem that makes me feel like I could literally hear my heart breaks and makes me want to go inside the book and curse the characters. This is also the reason that makes me love poetry so damn much and the fact that I’m able to feel and understand the meanings beneath the words. I came across this poem when I was reading an online Wattpad novel by Ninya Tippett, Virtue and Vice. It is a romance novel, obviously. Instead of the normal cliche plot like every romance novel has, it has a slightly different one – the one that makes me realize that life is not just a bed of roses. Sometimes we forget that roses have thorns, and that in order for us to truly get to the beauty of roses, we have to overcome the flaws of the roses, the thorns themselves. For me, that is what the author is trying to convey, for every virtue there is a vice. For every happiness, there is a sadness. And for every love, there is lost. Thank you so much for your books, Ninya. I love all your books especially Virtue and Vice. And I am super happy for the second book of the series, Rush and Restraint. All the best! Happy reading guys! 🤓😁
