Wrap Up July 2016
Hello guys,
This past month has been crazy and you know it.
My schedule have been terrible and a have very little spare time; and the few I
did have I use it to sleep whether I wanted to or not. That´s why the post had
been arriving not on its usual days and I have been reading so little, just 8
books.
However this month is not going to be better
regarding my reading time, mostly because on the 29th I am leaving
to Germany where I will be studding this semester. So I have to prepare so many
things, that I done even know where to start. But I will worry about later on. So
let’s go with my wrap up.
As usual if I have a review for any of the
books I am talking about will be linked and you can check it out by clicking on
its title.
This month had a very good reading started. It was
a rereading but I really enjoyed, I think that even more than the first time I read
it. This book could easily be the conclusion for The Mortal Instruments series,
but I am glad it goes on. I wrote a full review on Spanish which you have
linked on its title in case you Spanish and you want to check it out. However
my English review will be posted as soon as I have time.
I gave it 5 out of 5 stars.
I have so many issues with this book. The main
one being that I don´t know whether this is a children
´s book or an adults book;
I mean, I will put it in the latter category just because the heavy topics that
are deal within it but the main character behaves like I child. I am not going
to say that much besides the fact that I gave it 1 out 5 stars. You have my review
linked on its title.
I read this book because I participated on the launching
event of this book and even when it´s not my usual type of book I enjoyed the
reading. The story is about a farm guy who orders a mail order bride and how
the two of them meet and what happen with them. I gave 3 o of 5 stars and you
have my review linked on the title in case are interested.
I received an advanced reader’s copy of this
book via Net Galley and to be honest I am beyond grateful for it. I really
enjoyed myself while reading this book and I have not become crazy.
It turns out so interesting to see that the
thing you study on class (for those who don´t know I am studding a major in
Finances and Accounting) has a practical use besides the exercise that you have
to solve in order to past the tests. The book explains everything in such a
good ways; everyone will be able to understand it but, of course it will be
easy to understand for people who have a background in financial statement analysis.
I gave 4 out of 5 stars, and you can access my
review by clicking on the title.
El crucigrama de Jacob by A.L.
Martin
This book is just published in Spanish but I
will tell you a Little bit about it. At times is funny and at times is the most
boring thing you will ever encounter. Any way I quite enjoyed it mostly because
it was a birthday present of my friends, who bother to look for a book within
one of my favorite genre. And then people say that boys are not into the
details! I gave it 3 out of 5 stars.
Dragonfly in Amber by Diana Gabaldon
Definitely this is the book that I enjoyed the
most this month. I will be posting a review soon but I the mean time I will
told you about the amazing research work that it’s obvious after this book. Of course
it’s true this is a mix between fantasy and historical fiction and something
did not happen in reality but in general it’s very truthful to what was going
on during the period.
Obviously I gave this one 5 out of 5 stars
Voyager by Diana Gabaldon
The third installment in the Outlander sagas
was kind of a disappointment despite I enjoyed the book. It might be related to
the fact that its predecessor, Dragonfly in Amber was such a great book.
However this book was 4 out of 5 stars.
There were some parts I could not cease
laughing and there were some in which my heart was broke in hundred pieces. Any
way a full review will be uploaded with more coherent thoughts.
City of Fallen Angels by Cassandra Clare
Going on with y reread of The Mortal Instruments
I picked up this one which in my opinion is the worst book that Cassandra Clare
has ever written. I am not going to explain in further details because I have a
review prepare. Right now all you need to know it´s that I gave 2 out of 5
stars.
What have you read during July? Dou you have
any recommendations?
