23 Books and Emojis

Image
Hello Everyone,  The second of the promised posts is here. For this one I asked a few friends to send me the emojis they liked and with those emojis I will tell about books that I think about when see these emojis. With no further do, let´s get started.    This emoji make me think of a book that made me roll my eyes. There are so many books that could fit in this category but the one that I liked better is The Selection by Kiera Cass. It made me roll my eye because sometimes I feel like the characters could do something smarter. But honestly I enjoyed this book so much. This emoji reminds me of when I´ve done something and I do not want to be discovered. So for this book I will recommend one of my guilty pleasures. And that will be Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell. This book is so funny and such a quick read.  This emoji looks like thinking to solve a mystery. A mystery book that I´ve enjoyed so much is Think of a Number by John Verdon is ...

First Quarter of the Year Favorite Books

Image
So as today is the end of March and the end of the first quarter of the year I am bringing you my favorite books I read or reread during the course of these 3 months. I will be doing this for each quarter of the year to make it easy to choose my favorite books of the year. I got the idea from PreuseProject and I leave the link right here so all of you can see her video. So until now I´ve read a total of 39 books. Considering that my goal for the year was to read 50 I am quite ahead of schedule. However I am going to do a list with all the books I´ve read and then tell you which ones are my top 10 for this quarter.

Before I started to talk about my wrap up I will like to say that I will still posting on Fridays and I will try to posted as well on Wednesdays if college is not keeping me to busy, cause my few vacation days are over now. And as I previously say I will try to post other days besides those two if I do have time. But with no further do let´s go with the wrap up. This month I´ve read I huge amount of books; actually I would say that is the most I’ve read in my entire life in just one month.  This March I´ve read 21 books and I´ve read all the books I meant to. So I am going to start talking about these books now because otherwise this is going to be such a long post. The Strain by Guillermo del Toro and ChuckHogan The Strain was the first book I completed during this month and I was entertain at reading it but it wasn´t my favorite book. As I said on its review it’s a book that doesn´t tell anything. You can see my full review on this book by clicking on the title. I g...

All the Light We Cannot See

Hello everyone, Another Friday is here and here I am again. It´s been a very busy week with an econometrics test and a massive paper to deliver, cause in my university there is this little thing in which teachers decides to send homework one day to another (how nice is that?). Fortunately I have a few vacation days now and I will have more time to dedicate to the blog and my reading. Last Sunday I finished All the Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr. It took me a while to read this book but it wasn´t that I didn´t love the story or the writing style, that was nothing but brilliant. It was that this is the kind of book that you want to keep reading for as long as you can even when some parts of the story are so hard to read. This book is actually one of the most brilliant books that I´ve read lately and considering that belong in a genre that I do not usually read is a lot to say. I tend to dislike books that talk about the recent past (considering recent past from the las...
