Even back when I was 9 years old and a teacher gave me a story book as a present for being top 3 of the class and I hated that gift.
LOL
and I also love History.
Just recently I finished reading A Diary of Young Girl by Anne Frank.
(not really the cover of the one that I bought but I'm too lazy to upload my version thus I Googled this and this cover actually came close to the real one)
It's a real diary of a young girl name Anne Frank who had lived in hiding during in World War II. (do Google Holocaust, Germany, Hitler and Nazi for further informations ;) )
I've heard of it during form 6, coz History was one of my big 3 subjects, and since then had been curious about this diary.
I wasn't really been searching for it (as stated in my IG acct :P) but when I saw the book at Popular, Miri, I didn't even think twice. I just took the book of the shelve and pay! (well, not really, I went around the store looking for more books plang before finally paying keke ) I recognized the title and when I read the synopsis, I just thought 'I gotta have this!' and I did.
I don't know what intrigued me about the book. i thought it'd be about a full account of how the Jews were being treated and killed but when I finally read it, it wasn't of the sort. Yes, she did mention has to how they (all Jews, really) were being treated and in only a few accounts about how people were killed or as we all know now as the Holocaust.
The diary was mostly about her thoughts, and how she felt about being in confinement in such a small place. when I was reading, I felt like I was invading her privacy. coz, terlalu deep. it's like when I wrote down mean things that I couldn't say to people but to my diary only. it was kinda scary seeing it from a different perspective.
When gets me most is that, I can relate to Anne. mostly about writing. We both feel that we are not that talented but we both love it and find comfort in it. So, the whole time reading that diary, I feel her. I understand her.
Here are a couple of quotes I love most from her dairy;
and with that I shall concludes my thoughts on this book.
To those hidden writers out there, this is not a waste-of-time book to read.
Give it a go.
