This is the first book written in english I've ever read completely and as this book is a good read, I will write my review here. Okay this is also my first book review ever.

The story was about Toru Watanabe, a young Japanese boy who fell in love to Naoko, his dead-bestfriend's girl. Naoko's boyfriend, Kizuki, killed himself once he was 17 years old. Since that time, Naoko and Toru had never seen each other for about two years, and they met again accidentally in Tokyo where both of them studied in university.

Lost in Sulawesi - Day 2: Toraja, the Land of Deads (Part 2)

Dari post sebelumnya:

Gue, Dara, dan Dana terbang ke Makassar dan langsung pergi ke Tana Toraja. Kami bermalam di rumah teman gue, Anggi, yang asli orang Toraja. Pagi ini kami pergi ke lokasi pemakaman pertama di Rante Lemo.

Menjelang siang, perjalanan kami lanjutkan ke Londa, di mana orang daerah tersebut memakamkan keluarganya di gua yang terletak di sana.

Kami menyewa sebuah lampu gas seharga Rp30,000 untuk membantu penerangan selama berada di dalam gua, serta seorang pemandu (dengan bayaran seikhlasnya yang biasanya, katanya, sebesar Rp20,000). Menurut pemandu tersebut, makam di Londa ini khusus diperuntukkan bagi anggota marga Tolengke.
