It

Hey guys! How is everything working out so far in 2018? I hope you are doing well. Today I am here to talk about a book which I was dying to read but that unfortunately disappointed me. Set book is It by Stephen King. The story takes place in a little town called Derry. This town is violent, really violent; and there are some periods in which that violence goes even higher, that happens when It comes from wherever he is sleeping. The thing is that a group of kids decides to stop It and this is their story. I read this book back in November and I took me 15 days to read it, because, lets be honest: this book is huge. I don´t know how it is with the English edition but in the Spanish edition there is 1504 pages. The length was one of the things that intimidated me the most, but at the end I ended up picking this book up and somehow, I regret it. I am going to start by talking about the things that I did enjoyed about this book, and then I will go over the negative aspect...

I requested the second book for review and Simon & Schuster were kind enough to give me an early copy, which I am really grateful for. So as I got an early copy I thought it would be a great time to pick up The Fire Sermon. The story is set in the future after the radiation have had destroyed the world as we know. The children now are always born as twins. One of the twins is physically perfect, the alfa; and the other one is born with some kind of mutation, the omega. The alfas are the rulers and treat the omegas as garbage. In ...
