Labyrinth of the Spirits | Carlos Ruiz Zafon

Carlos Ruiz Zafón passed away today. I am shocked and saddened that I'll never get another incredible work from him.

Now more than ever I feel compelled to track down all his books and read them.

"Stories have no beginning and no end, only doors which one may enter them."

Freespirit How sad. I loved his books😟 5y

Jas16 Oh no. I hadn‘t heard. That is really sad. 5y

PurpleTulipGirl Oh no....I loved “The Shadow of the Wind.” And he was only 55. 🙁 5y

AvidReader25 This breaks my heart. 5y

emz711 @PurpleTulipGirl did you read the rest? 5y

PurpleTulipGirl I think I read one other, but I don‘t recall enjoying it as much as SotW. I‘ve meant to read more of this books since, but *waves helplessly at Mount TBR* 5y

emz711 @PurpleTulipGirl omg do it! Shadow of the wind is closer in style to this one. Prisoner of Heaven is a whole nother animal and I feel like Angel's game is very specific and in your head kind of story. 4y

emz711 @Freespirit @jas16 @avidreader25 I know! Sorry if I ruined your day. What's your favorite book of his? 4y

AvidReader25 Shadow is my favorite, but I loved learning more of Fermin‘s story in Prisoner. 4y

emz711 @AvidReader25 Fermín is my favorite character! 4y

The Labyrinth of the Spirits: A Novel | Carlos Ruiz Zafon

The day has arrived! I‘m dropping everything to read the newest, and final, addition to the Cemetery of Forgotten Books series. I ❤️ Ruiz Zafon so much and it‘s killing me that I can‘t get home to this chunkster for another hour and a half. Please tell me AGT is on tonight so the family will leave me alone (said in the most loving way possible)! #ruizzafon #cemetaryofforgottenbooks #chunkster #newrelease

CoffeeNBooks Ok, so I'd never heard of this author. I just looked up some of his books and they sound really great! Which of his books would you recommend I start with? 6y

BlameJennyJane @CoffeeNBooks I‘d probably recommend Shadow of the Wind. It was first in the series and amongst fans it seems to be most popular- his opus. It is my favorite book. But I also love Angel‘s Game. They can stand alone, for sure, but there are little bits of the other stories woven throughout, which makes it fun too! 6y

CoffeeNBooks @BlameJennyJane Thanks! My TBR list just got even longer, lol! 😂 6y

BookwormM I have just started Shadow of the wind and I am in love 6y

zsuzsanna_reads I liked Shadow of the Wind, but ended up bailing on Angel's Game... #unpopularopinion 6y

BlameJennyJane @CoffeeNBooks this is the list that never ends... yes it goes on and on my friends... 🤣🤣 6y

BlameJennyJane @BookwormM so glad you are loving it! I don‘t think of it as an “easy read” probably because of the Spanish culture and keeping track of characters but I definitely found it worth the investment of time. I hope you do too. 😊 6y

BlameJennyJane @zsuzsanna_reads that‘s how I felt about The Prisoner of Heaven. I stuck it out but wasn‘t captivated the way I was with the previous two. I listened to Angel‘s Game on audio and that may have helped me with that one. 6y
