Little Life | Hanya Yanagihara

The story, the amount of tragedies that can happen to one person, seems totaly impossible. And yet I couldn't put the book away and I believed every single word of the story. I cries a few times and even reasoning with myself that it was too much to be believable didn't help. Wonderfully written, worth every second I spent on reading it (813 pages!)

I'm currently reading Stendhal in Spanish and I find it quite disappointing :/ Might be the translatin though...

Raging Heat: Nikki Heat | Richard Castle
post image

I don't know what I expected, but it's rather disappointing. The plot is exactly the same as some of original Castle episodes and the writing is rather poor.I seriously hope none of the writers that appear in the series as Castle's friends is behind it...

I'm finally starting "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them". I broke my rule with this one and have already seen the film and I loved every single second of it. I guess it's high time to admit I'm totally addicted to Harry Potter's universe

A beautiful Spanish edition. Let's see if the book is as impressive as Bayona's film. The kid actor (can't remember his name :/ ) was amazing!

I loved the film "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them", but then I'm a Harry Potter fanatic... I can't wait to read the screenplay!

I'm rereading "Fahrenheit 451" for Irun Book Club meeting. I love every single word of it. Unfortunately, the older I get, the more probable it seems to me... Not just an enjoyable syfy book anymore...

I had so many doubts about it but it actually worked! Can't wait to read the script of Magical Beasts!

"Almost two hours have passed. She still feels powerful, though she knows that tomorrow she may look back at what she's written and find it airy, overblown. One always has a better book in one's mind than one can manage to get onto paper."
