La reina descalza
La reina descalza | Ildefonso Falcones
2 posts | 9 read | 1 reading | 9 to read
Ildefonso Falcones nos propone un viaje a una poca apasionante, teida por los prejuicios y la intolerancia. Desde Sevilla hasta Madrid, desde el tumultuoso bullicio de la gitanera hasta los teatros seoriales de la capital, los lectores disfrutarn de un fresco histrico poblado por personajes que viven, aman, sufren y pelean por lo que creen justo. Fiel reflejo de unos hombres y mujeres que no agacharon la cabeza y que alzaron la voz para enfrentarse al orden establecido.

I visited one of Helsinki's bigest bookstores this week. They had sale for paperbacks so I took these and few others home with me. 😁❤ #BookHaul

Cinfhen They are both #chunksters 😱 6y
Martta @Cinfhen Indeed! Also both have a story lines situated in a location I've not read too many books about: Spain and Shanghai. Can't wait to read these! They feel very promising! 😊 6y

Martta @Cinfhen That is the best! From Spain I've only read Carlos Ruiz Zafon and he writes about it so beautifully. Hes strength is definitely to bring the locations alive almost like a another character side by side to his human characters. I don't know if these boiare as good as that but I suppose I'll find out while reading them. 😊 6y
Martta *these books are as good.. 6y
RebelReader @Martta I enjoyed Valley of Amazement and The Barefoot Queen is sitting on my TBR to be read before the end of the year! 6y

Mehso-so

The premise of the book is interesting and some of the characters are well written but I expected much more from the book. Very descriptive sometimes unnecessary. Brutal but honest. Girl power throughout. 3/5
