F
ashion blogger-slash-entrepreneur Diana Rikasari and illustrator Dinda Puspitasari officially launched their third book on Thursday.
Released as part of their #88LOVELIFE series, the book features 88 quotes and illustrations with "priorities" as the main theme.
During the book launch event, Diana said she never imagined the book becoming a trilogy. "This third book feels like completing the previous books' themes ["dreams" and "passion"]. [Since] I am married and have a child, it was not about achieving dreams, but also about helping my husband's and son's dreams. The third volume focuses on how to balance that."
Meanwhile, Dinda shared, "I think the books had a journey similar to our lives. I recently got married and have different priorities now."

However, instead of offline roadshows, the authors planned to focus on online promotion, such as Instagram Stories live sessions.
Diana and Dinda previously visited international book exhibitions to promote their first and second books, such as the Frankfurt International Book Fair 2015, London Book Fair 2015, Putrajaya International Book Fair 2016 in Malaysia and Tokyo Art Book Fair 2016. The first volume reportedly was awarded Best Non-Fiction Book of 2015 title from Malaysia's MPH Bookstore.
The #88LOVELIFE VOL. 03: PRIORITIES is set to be available at Gramedia bookstores starting March 13, as well as the MPH Bookstore this month.
Coinciding with the event, the dynamic duo also launched a new cover for their second book, #88LOVELIFE VOL. 02: PASSION. (jes/kes)
