The Outsider | Stephen King

It's been my first Stephen King and I did really like it. It was entertaining and had well-done spooky moments, but the villain had not enough presence in the book for my taste and the ending was a bit disappointing, it feels rushed.

I liked the book, very instructive. I feel more mindful now. I counted the stair steps though :(

I didn't like the beginning, he started to talk about how great the Lean Startup method was without actually explaining what it was about, like a fraudster trying to sell you a miraculous medicine, but it turned that the book is a good managment book, I recommend it to anyone interested in the matter.

Las aventuras de Sherlock Holmes | Arthur Conan Doyle, Sir

Un clásico del genero de misterio/policíaco. Al ser una colección de casos se hace muy ameno. Es una buena introducción al género para cualquier lector (o incluso a la lectura en general)

Absolutely must have if you have that board, specially if you are a newbie.

It's definitely the CS student's best friend.

Interesting but repetitive as fuck. The first half hooked me, but I couldn't keep with the resting of the book, I mean, I finished it but I wanted to finish it so bad that I read the last part almost without catching what I was reading.

Es un buen kit de supervivencia para aprender alemán básico, me sirvió para saltarme el primer año de alemán (A1)

My interest in this book has been like a parabola: Interesting at beginning, a little tedious in the middle and interesting again in the end. Varoufakis repeats too much the agreement he wants to achieve, a better agreement for Greece (debt restructuring, etc.) but I understand it, as it is what happened. It's a great book to get an idea how things in the Eurozone, and in politics in general I guess, work.

TheBookBaron I have read it in Spanish and I thinl the translation could be a bit better sometimes. 6y
