omg omg words cant describe how much i love this book!
tbh cyber investigation isnt my cup of tea but this book magically amaze me. penyelidikan yg seru buat diikutin, well built character, kritik sosial yg ngena BANGET, lil touch of psychology and profiling. hadu hadu haduuu and there's twist over twist aaaaaaaaaa much love!!!

PAGE TURNING BOOK!!!
kaya hhhh bagus bgt mau baca terus tapi di sisi lain  sayang bgt kalo langsung abis ntar ga nemu cerita bagus lagi huhuhu 
kata gue worth the hype si emang lah soalnya emang beneran bagus hiksss

N tuh mirip2 Sherlock gitu deh tengilnya, nyebelinnya, sombongnya astaga minta digeplak si tapi ya untungnya emg beneran pro. 

trus jujur tuh kaget bgt pas tau N ternyata slajnbhjhjdkj soalnya gue kejebak sama narasi author dan malah ngira pendiri yg ga pernah nongol itu si N haha

di sisi lain, Nga-Yee juga mirip2 dr. Watson yg kepo, sabar ngadepin partnernya dan dipandang bego sama partnernya juga hahahaha

AND I REALLY LOVE HER CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT!!!! the way she handle the "revenge" omggg sumpah dia berbesar hati buat maafin christopher dan adeknya. NGA YEE BEST GIRLLLLL!!!!

did i mention about social critique and philosophycal question about society???
isu2 yg dibahas keren sumpah huaaaa suka bangettt!!!! apalagi settingnya di hongkong! khas metropolitan di mana lo liat orang2 kaya nge wine sampe muntah2 tapi kalo lo minggir dikit ya nemu aja tuh kaum2 yg sewa apartemen kecil aja meronta2
TMI TAPI JUJURRRR deskripsi makanannya bikin ngilerrr huhuhuhu

big-book-fear yang gue punya seketika ilang dah pas baca ini soalnya kisahnya enjoy bgt buat diikutin
pokoknya keren bgtt huhuhuhu gatau gimana mau lagi mujinya huhuhu my compliment to the chef!!!

p.s. : make sure to read the trigger warning because oh boy oh boyyy there's a lot haha
