Origin | Dan Brown

I was obsessed with #danbrown during the #davincicode fever and read some of his other work back then. Haven‘t read anything by him since. His last #book #origin uses the same equation of #codes, #art, #suspense and #religion to tell a story that could be very much true. Nothing new but still very entertaining. #recommendedreading #books #booknerd #bookstagram #instabooks #booklover #bookworm #audiobook #ladeloslibros 💜📘

“¿Usted lleva un diario, Antonio?
Le dije que no, que los diarios siempre me habían parecido ridículos, una vanidad o un anacronismo: la ficción de que nuestra vida importa”.

En eso pensaba cuando conocí a #JuanGabrielVasquez quien me regaló un “abrazo latinoamericano”

Olive Kitteridge | Elizabeth Strout

I still can‘t explain how so many “everyday” things could make me love this book so much. Each character has a story and each story is, in some way, related to this Olive lady who is so anti heroine and lovable at the same time. As I read it, I could see real people, imperfect, with frustrations and issues who make it more relatable and intimate. The writing is wonderful. 📔💜

UrsulaMonarch Great review! 7y

It's here! I got #orhanpamuk 'a signature in my #Istanbul book. Super excited to have met him. Have you checked your local library/bookstore to see if exciting authors are visiting your town?

I'm still getting use to the fact that in most #audiobooks all characters have the same voice 🤷🏻‍♀️ In my head, when I read, that's not the case so I'm getting used to it #justsaying. #allthelightwecannotsee proves that life, memory and family are for ever, and that history can marry good fiction writing and love stories in one #book. What did you guys think? 💜📚🙆🏻

Kaylamburson Most audiobooks I've "read" have amazing voice actors that change their voice to fit the character or even have multiple actors. I wasn't a big fan of this one on audio. It was hard to keep track of the changing timelines. 7y
Cecibmg Totally true, @Kaylamburson. I think I could have liked this books even better if I had read it. I'm glad I'm not the only one who felt that way. 7y
Kaylamburson Completely agree. It was a beautiful story, but I think I wasn't in love with it because I chose the audiobook. Whereas some audiobooks make me love a book even more when in print it wouldn't be as magical. 7y

Cecibmg Honestly, @Kaylamburson I'm a newbie with audiobooks. What's your favorite? I'd appreciate recommendations ☺️ 7y
Kaylamburson Honestly, my first and one of my favorites was The Hunger Games series! I stayed up all night finishing it. I enjoyed The Final Girls and The Hating Game. I also loved The Cuckoo's Calling because of the British accents, lol. Some of the best audiobooks are celebrity memoirs since you can appreciate all their jokes exactly as they intended them. Personally, most serious books don't work for me in audio, though. 7y
Cecibmg Great tips @Kaylamburson I'll make sure to check those audiobooks out for sure. Thank you so much! 7y
Kaylamburson Of course! I hope you find one you love!! 7y

What are the odds?! The #NobelPrize writer you are currently reading is in your city and you get a chance to hear him speak AND get a signature from. Have you read #OrhanPamuk? I'm currently reading #Istanbul and just got #theredhairedwoman. I'll post his signature tomorrow! So excited! 💜📚🙆🏻

mrozzz The red haired woman was FAB. Amazing you got to meet him! 7y
Cecibmg I still have to read it @mrozzz I'm so looking forward! 7y

Writers tend to awaken feelings that you may not know exist. He describes a sense of being one with the city that never occurred to me, but as I think of the city of my childhood, I believe I know exactly what he's talking about.
