book-us-two

At first it was not clear to me what it was that caught my attention in this novel. His synopsis was presented simple, without great pretensions or an enigmatic plot. It is well that it was a love story, and that a romantic novel does not have to be covered with any sophistication. But …

book-conspiracies

Reality surpasses fiction. Hence, in this case, I took a leap in my reading tendency of black, historical, intimate or fantasy novels, to fully introduce myself into politics and current affairs, a kind of science fiction with touches of thriller where citizens browse ...
