A Review about The Fall, The Night Eternal, The Strain by Guillermo del Toro & Chuck Hogan
The Fall began when the young Abraham heard her tell the legend of the evil that lurks and waits in the dark. Decades later, a plane landed at JFK airport in New York, but, something was wrong. The plane has been 'muted'. No lights, no noises from pilots or passengers. Everyone died and mysteriously drained their blood. The total solar eclipse coinciding with the death sentence on the plane was also the time when the demons' breath came to the surface. No more light, dark night dominates, vampires invaded the whole world like a giant pandemic that is constantly spreading and destroying. From here begins the war of the living to protect humanity and defeat the conspiracy of the devil.

A reView about "Ender's Game"
Genius is a lonely person but walking alone will make us stronger. Born the third child in a family that both his brother and sister had participated in the test to find talent, it was Third, an "unexpected" baby but a "tool". Ender is not chosen for its appearance, not for the life it desires but it is all a plan. No family, no friends by his side, he had to learn to fight on his own. It is said that "isolation is the best environment to create" but is that too cruel to Ender? Literature has the ability to penetrate, record and deepen the most subtle changes in the human soul, thoughts and emotions. For that reason, Ender in me is clearly concerned with concerns, including anxiety, standing between the boundaries of reason and affection. That Ender is not fighting to become the best commander but fighting with himself.

A reView about "The Sixth Extinction: An Unnatural History"
Imagine a non-fic book in the direction of a detective novel, where the victim slowly disappears, and the culprit is increasing. More specifically, the perpetrator showed no remorse, became more and more barbaric, scary, and his skills were so skilled that he did not need to try at all. Elizabeth Kolbert was the one who wrote this tragedy in the Pulitzer Prize winning book: Friday's Extinction. What is more frightening of all is that each of us has the face of the killer, and the victim is none other than the planet, where people are still living, breathing, and working.

Hateship, Friendship, Courtship, Loveship, Marriage
Hateship, Friendship, Courtship, Loveship, Marriage is a collection of 9 short stories written about ordinary people living in Canada. Character lines are completely people you can see anywhere, existing sometimes even in yourself. And the story sketched under the pen of Alice Munro is just like everyday stories that mothers often murmur to each other when they have the opportunity to gossip. A woman suffering from a disease, the relationship between her two grandchildren, childhood love now suddenly meets again or the elderly with brain disease are moved to a nursing home. Alice Munro didn't have a big sword, visualizing her characters beyond normal to everyday life.

BEAUTY OF THE SHORT STORY

Le rose di Atacama - BEAUTIFUL FROM THE NORMAL THINGS
The life of a guy who used to be an electrician apprentice fell into the abyss of silence due to the torture from dictators who deprived him of the ability to speak up and deprived of his identity. his real because he could not say his real name, in his voice to the old teammates who only know his operating aliases. Time seems to have died on the bodies of two women, a brunette and a blonde, at night they were dragged out of the house, after the first shivers, and deep in their bodies. blood sheaths, "rock punches", "boot marks" and even "electrical picana marks" an unyielding unwavering will that implicitly won the victory: "They didn't subdue you.". There are many more people in this book that have buried their own wars, in small or vast lands, at completely different times. They have voiced their love for peace and justice in their own lives, the price to pay is sometimes death, and scarier than death is nameless and forgotten. People only remember the names of the countless battles that took place while the names of those who have been trampled by evil gradually fade away as if they never existed in the world. Is our memory complicity with a crime? Joseph Goebbels - one of those who advocated the extermination of Jews during World War II (is it a crime to remember the names of those who oppose humanity instead of the names of the victims?) - asserts: A death is a scandal, thousands of deaths are a statistic.

I used to be self-deprecating with my reading habits
What are your feelings when reading the Alchemist? When I hadn't read this book, I asked my friend to let me review. She simply said that a young person struggles a lot to achieve his dream, but there are no other special feelings. And the quote is so popular from the story we meet forever, so much so that I thought it would be a "logo" for the book, is "when you yearn for something, the whole universe will join forces to help you." get there ”. I am not impressed with this review and the quote is repeated many times. It wasn't until last year that I read this book, because it's thin and because I'm stressed by work, I just want to read something fast. I've read it startled because this volume is "too" and "heavy". I cried numb for it.

Lesson of life: The BEAUTIFUL
Beautiful people get noticed quickly, but it takes bad time, right people. Simply because beauty will attract others in the first glance ie by the speed of light. Bad things are the same, but are removed by the brain and become forgotten. This is also made clear by my teacher saying "your body is a temple" because it expresses your beliefs, strength, and intellect. If your body is as beautiful as a magnificent magnificent temple or as ugly as a dirty cave, this one shows the holiness in which it is worshiped. At this point, you understand what I want to say, but if you want to attract or succeed in your career, you should invest in drawing outside yourself, taking care of your appearance and outfit. Now we will go into two beautiful categories:

A Review about Once Upon a Cow of CAMILO CRUZ
The book begins with a fairly gentle fable. There was a very poor family, living in a slumped house less than fifteen square meters. Their life completely depends on the milk cow in the house. For many years, the whole family of eight people relied on milk for their living. And what they could not expect had come, one morning, some inhuman had killed their cow. If I were to fall into that situation, I would definitely be scared because the only livelihood left would be.
