The Name of the Book

  Hey guys! How are things going? Have you read something good this week or did you read something that disappointed you? If it´s the first: congrats! Its amazing to find good books. If it turned out to be the second option, I am sorry, but I get you. In the December Wrap Up I told you about Sissi Empress on Her Ow by Allyson Pataki. I don’t know if you remember this, but this book disappointed me. However, I am bringing you the review in case you want to check it out. Truth to be told I was dying to read this book, mostly because of 2 reasons: I am deeply fascinated by everything related to the empress of Austria-Hungary a. secondly, because I found the fist book in this duology, Sissi The Accidental Empress, to be fascinating. You can check my review of the first book by clicking on its title. This duology tells us the story of the empress ever since she first meets Franz Joseph until she died. And guys, don’t freak out because I am not making any spoiler, as t...

Hey guys! It ´ s Wednesday and even when I am on vacation I did not want to miss our weekly appointment. So here I am willing to talk about books as every week. Today is the turn of The Accidental Empress by Allison Pataki. I have say this previously but in case you weren ’ t around I will say it again. I am fascinated with the story of Sissi and when I saw that this book was about her life I could not contain myself and I have to buy it. And I am so happy I did it. I had read man books about the life of the empress but none of them were more than a 3 stars rating, so when I read this book and love it, I was so surprised. Before I go on talking about this book let me tell you that as this book is very historically accurate I don ’ t think I am doing any spoiler cause most of it should ring a bell. And know without further ado let ´ s jump in the review. In this book, we follow Sissi as she first met her husband and the first years of her reign until they are crowned ki...

I´ve known for a while that Diana Gabaldon is one hell of a writer but after reading voyager I am more sure of it, if that´s even possible. Writing one good book is hard, writing to good books harder… Three within the same saga is a charm. I know that there is a huge number of good sagas but let´s be honest, if it was easy all of us will be published authors. Before I go on with the review I am warming you: this review will be spoiler free regarding the third book but it may contain some spoilers from the previous books. In case you haven´t read the previous installments on the series yet I will recommend you read my reviews of those Outlander and Dragonfly in Amber (you can access those by clicking on the titles), and I will also advise for you to read the books of course. Going on with the topic that we are all here for, Voyager I the third book in the Outlander saga and most likely a view of what is going to happen in season three. Although if you are followers of the sho...

Hello guys, This might be the last post for a while. I am moving to Germany and I don´t know how long is going to take me to settle thing up. Let´s hope won´t take long but, any way let´s go for the thing we are all interested in: books. Today I am going to be talking about the second book in the Outlander series: Dragonfly in Amber. I am warning you that it would be spoiler free if you have read or watched the first season of the show, otherwise you will be spoiled. If you are interested here is my review of the first book and a few comments on the first season 1 click here . Once I’ve fairly warn everyone I have to say that Diana Gabaldon it´s just a genius. Dragonfly in Amber starts in a weird way, 20 years after Clare goes back to her time and before you tell me I have spoiled you, I haven’t, this is within the first few pages of the book. As I was saying, because of the beginning we know that something big has happened because Claire won´t go away from Jaime, righ...

Hello Everyone, I might have mentioned that this month it´s been my birthday and besides the fact that I get to celebrate with all my friends in a very funny night, I am so happy because after 21 years of living in this planet I get books for my birthday. One of the books I get is actually the one I am going to be talking  about today: The Nightingale by Kristin Hannah. Honestly. I can only say good things about this book. The writing style is amazing. It is done in such way that you are able to feel so tender but ate the same time being horrified by all the things that happened during the World War II. The good thing about this book is how good the two main characters are portrayed. Both of Rosignol sisters are very strong women, but they were not like that when the book started. They both went through a journey to arrive to the point in which both of them are strong female characters. In one hand we had Isabelle, who is my favorite of the sisters, by the way. I l...
