Weekend Reads (3)


I’m still reading these two books because 1) I haven’t got so much time these past couple of days and 2) they are so good I wanna take my time with them. A year ago I read the first two books in the Mistborn trilogy and I didn’t pick up the third and final installment straightaway because I needed a break. The second book was heartbreaking. Little did I know I was gonna wait more than a year to get to The Hero of Ages. So far, so good. I love the magic system and the characters as much as the first time.

Fairytales for Wilde Girls though it’s the real deal this week. I picked it up on a whim: a recommendation on Goodreads and oh boy…. It’s so good I can’t even. The writing style is perfection and the story is so fantastical. I highly recommend it and I haven’t even finished it yet!

Also, there is some news blogging-wise. I’ve been having troubles with Google+ comments for a while but I didn’t want to disable them because that would have meant losing all my comments. However, I decided to install Disqus just because I was so fed up. And indeed I lost all previous comments but I hope this new system works alright for everybody (and my sake) and it can make up for this inconvenient. Sometimes blogging gets on my nerves. You don’t know how many times I screamed yesterday to my computer. Anyways, I hope you don’t mind the change so much. Let me know how it goes as to continue with this new one or get back to the old system.
Have an awesome weekend!
And 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?
