Darkly Dexter

cover of indonesia edition

well, this is a novel that i read on December.
what attracts me about the novel is that the hero is really "unique".
the main role in this novel is Dexter Morgan, who works in laboratory as forensic team.
he's known as a friendly, handsome, and warm guy. he's considered as a nice brother by his younger sister, Deborah Morgan. he also has a fiancee, namely Rita, a widow caused by divorcing with his cruel ex-husband who has two children.
well, actually he's not that nice. he may be really nice with his step sister because she's the one whom his father left to take care of.
but he only pretends to be nice with others, included Rita. he actually doesn't love her. he kinda uses her for something he deeply covers. there are some reasons why he decides to make Rita as his special one, but probably, the main reason is that he loves Rita's children. well actually, he hates everyone but Deborah and kids.

like I said, he covers up something. that 'something' is that he has an alter ego, called by dark passenger by him, who always 'drives' him to hunt a prey for him to kill.
this happens because of his past, when he was still 3 years old. and his dead step father, Harry Morgan, who found him in the past know about his past and the only one who knows about his abnormality when Dexter was 14 years old. he firstly killed his neighbor dog who barked all time and caused his mother bothered.
Harry felt he could do nothing to 'delete' Dexter's abnormality. but things he could do was just controlling him and teaching him to kill bad persons.
the way he kills his prey is mutilating them and preventing his prey to bleed.
in addition, he hates blood because of his past. it will be revealed after you read this novel. ^^

and in this novel, he finds someone who has a same way with him to kill his prey, but is considered more artistic and beautiful by Dexter because of its neatness.
but the difference is the preys are only women. specifically I explain, bitchy women.
it's revealed later that the serial killer is his brother. and he will be faced with two hard choices.
wanna know more?
read it completely!
come on! it's worth reading!

Song Recommendation

well, I would like to recommend you my favorite japanesse song.
i think this song is good for you who haven't heard j-music before.
this is it :


this song is delicious way, performed by mai .k.
this is bout people should grow up and should be ready to face all problems as an adult.
this is an upbeat song, has a good beginning. and the chorus is really catchy. i also love the backing sound of the song by michael africk, in the beginning of the song, the chorus, and also the rap section. i think this is a good song for you as an introductory to j-music!!!

nb : the song can be played. click on the box in the right
