Dewey's read-a-thon:8 hour

Hey guys!!! :)

This read-a-thon is being a really strange one. I woke up early and I have been sleeping most of the time, but since I have picked short and easy to read books I have managed to finish another 3. Here they are:

Treasures of silence by Javier Burieza Sánchez. This book was a guide of the Covent of the Concepción del Cermen. It was interesting, but I wish i had had more information about the daily life of the nuns-

Elmore Leonard's 10 rules of writing by Elmore Leonard. Very quick read about writing. It was funny and interesting.

859230 












Those things by Julien Neel. I really enjoyed this story about Julien Neel's life. It was nice and heartbreaking at the same time.


16031400













So, I hope you are enjoying this read-a-thon so far.

Good luck and keep reading!!! :)

Dewey's read-a-thon: Hour 5. Snack time!!! :D

Sunday in bed... With two books :)

  hosted by: Midnight Book Girl
 

 Hey guys!!! :)

Today I want to share with you the books what I'll be reading today:




- Louis Braille's life and work by Pierre Henri. This one is about Louis Braille. The whole of my life I had always wanted to know more about Braille's alphabet and his life and now I have the opportunity.

- Poetry by Antonio Machado. This book has all the poetry Antonio Machado has written (I think) and I am quite amazed that some poems are really good :)


I have to say that I like this two books, but I don't love them as much as I expected. I hope to finish these ones soon. We'll see.

So, this is me, but what about you? What are you reading today?
