Seeing the title of this book, I thought that it might involve the theme of death and explore people’s understanding and interpretation of death. After finishing it, I think my speculation was kinda correct. Besides, DEATH is also an character!!!I believe it will impact me throughout my life; it has become my favorite book. Firstly, […]

“Death with Interruptions” by José Saramago is the kind of fiction book I enjoy. I’m typically not a fiction lover, but I think the amount of philosophy and political aspects in this book makes me so curious that I somehow remain focused on the book. Even when it takes a while for a reader to […]

In my last blog, I mentioned that I’m waiting for a book where I don’t despise the male character. This was completely contrary to my expectations. I LOVE thrillers, and the beginning of this book made me very delighted. It was a narcos scene mixed with Money Heist. I agree with what everyone says about […]

Here we are, week 8. Wow, wow, wow. For this week, I chose to read The Hour of the Star by Clarice Lispector (who, I can’t lie, has a sick-sounding) and, if I’m very honest, I’m not sure if I have that much to say about it. Maybe I still have a very juvenile taste, […]
