Birthday Book Haul



What better way to come back to the blog than with a bookhaul? My family and friends really outdid themselves this year and I ended up with this amazing haul for my birthday. I am very excited to read them all but considering how many there are and how lenghty (looking at you War and Peace & Fortunata y Jacinta), it is more than likely I won't be able to get through them before the year ends. Last year I gave myself the challenge and did it but I am not sure about this year. Will try though.
  • Guerra y Paz by Leo Tolstoy.
  • Fortunata y Jacinta by Benito Pérez Galdós.
  • La escritura indómita by Mary Oliver.
  • El palacio de hielo by Tarjei Vesaas.
  • Todo el mundo puede ser ANTIFA by Pol Andiñach.
  • El legado de las diosas by Katerina Tucková.
  • Long Live the Tribe of Fatherless Girls by T Kira Madden.
  • The Covent Garden Ladies by Hallie Rubenhold.
  • By Ash, Oak and Thorn by Melissa Harrison.
  • Wake, Siren: Ovid Resung by Nina MacLaughlin.
Have you read any of these? 
Happy reading!

Book Review // The Improbability of Love by Hannah Rothschild

The Improbability of Love  by Hannah Rothschild { Goodreads } Published by Bloomsbury in 2016 Paperback edition; 479 pages { BookDepository } The Improbability of Love follows a bunch of different characters all involved in different ways with the art-world scene in London when a very famous painting –which gives name to the novel – is found by Annie, the main protagonist we could say, in a thrift shop. Don’t be fooled by the cover which screams chick-lit through and through; the novel deals with so much more.

Weekend Reads

This weekend I'm planning on finishing El día de año nuevo y otros cuentos maravillosos  - a short story collection by Vladímir Odóievski that so far it's simply okay nothing really special- and reading a chunk of Outlander . I'm halfway through the latter and so far, it's a very enjoyable read; I started watching the TV show last year when it premiered but stopped after some episodes because I wanted to read the book. I'm finally caught up with what I saw and from now on I don't know what's going to happen which makes me wanna read even more. What are your plans for the weekend?
