 Interperative Recount

This story tells about of 4 best friends who help each other in any
existing problems, namely is Julian,Devon,Agnes and Sophie. 4 friends not
being friends from elementary school simply Sophie and Devon, while
Agnes and Julian just transfer students from out of town. They start a
friendship due to their delay during high school. At the time Sophie and
Dvon have attended school because they wake up late, as a result the school
has closed the gates and make the two of them can’t get into class. When
they both were arguing, there was a boy who suddenly gave the idea in
order to get into the school, and then they’ll go , Devon invites one of the
girls who are too late, but their plan failed, and resulted in them all was
punished, and then when they are acquainted and start the friendship of
their foursome.

Their friendship is very compact in all things, but behind their

friendship, they also have each issue that is chasing shadows.Julian wants
to once as her brother Daniel , even beyond it and make it not want to
know the real her. Devon very sued her father to be the best football
players in order not to embarrass the name of his father, consequently
when Devon played football his love to the pressure to be like football.
Agnes still pursued by the shadow of her sister Jessica , who is deceased.
Because his parents still have not been able to forget about her sister, she
was depressed and caused due to having to live with the shadow of his
sister. Sophie felt like her mother should be a writer, eventually chose to
become a writer, but as time went on he was depressed due to the name of
his mother, who obliged him to become great writer.

As time progressed the problem they are chasing shadows they stop
when they are all mutually find a solution. Devon who dare to express what
was in her mind during at his father, Sophie finds the actual area or ability
that is photography, Agnes who dared to reveal the pain he to his father
and mother for her sister’s presence still expect.

The friendship that they wake up without them even realizing there is a
sense the attraction between men and women. Between Devon with Sophie
and also between Julian with Agnes, which resulted in all four of them a
relationship more than friendship.
 Evaluation

The advantages of novel is in terms of the conflict in his family each which
is quite draining emotions because all four of them are still not aware of
their abilities and just want to keep staring at the shadows that they can’t
reach.

The weakness of this novel is there are some less obvious parts of an
existing and also less exciting to the end. In terms of cover design is quite
interesting, but in the novel is quite monotonous in terms of design . While
in terms of the plot is very confusing because there are in each section
marked only small images that can not be seen.
 Evaluation Sumation

Conclusion :

Everybody have their own shadow but some people did not realize that
they had it, they only see the shadow of others. They can realize their own
shadow with just how high self-esteem and confidence is high as well so
that we do not continue to rely on the shadow of others without realizing
our own shadow.

Suggestion :

After I read this book I feel like I interest because this novel not only
discuss for love but this novel always have great story about friendship and
you can

Hopefully there is a sense of love for reading novels , a novel by Windhy

puspitadewi is very suitable for adolescents because not too many told
tales of romance.

This novel is able to makes the reader interested until the end of story. The
conflict is filled by moral value and this novel safe for teenagers. Try to
read this novel. So, enjoy it.
