The Wolf and the Woodsman
Books The Wolf and the Woodsman

🇺🇸️ The most common story told in the literature is the one between two persons of opposite groups that should hate each other but end up loving each other. This is the kind of love that must fight against everyone and everything (most of the time even the prejudice of the lovers itself) and could end really tragically (Romeo and Juliet’s story affected more than one generation) or really beautifully (like Kestrel and Arien in the Winner’s Curse trilogy. I thought that The Wolf and the Woodsman was another love story of this kind, but I ended up being utterly wrong.

Books A Touch of Malice

🇺🇸️ This is my first English review of a book. Why have I decided to switch language for this review instead of my classic Italian? No particular reason really, I was just so frustrated after reading the book that I thought English readers could be the right audience to complain together about it. Will I switch completely to English as the language of the blog? No, definitely no. I still think my potential (if it exists) is the best express in Italian. Will I write other reviews in English? Yes, probably. Regardless of my origin, I live in the US now and all the books that I read are in English. Still, be gentle, because I am not a native English speaker or writer (Seneca would say that to err is human).

Ora però tutte le storie sono completamente intrecciate nella mia mente ed è con il post di oggi che voglio sbrogliarle e presentarvi le diverse sfumature di ognuno.

🇮🇹️ Le premesse di Lore, l’ultima uscita young adult di Alexandra Bracken, erano una storia interessante e una copertina spaziale. Molti che lo avevano letto come ARC lo descrivevamo come un Hunger Games intriso di mitologia greca e la cosa mi aveva talmente tanto incuriosito da spingermi addirittura a preordinarlo. Adesso che ho finito di leggerlo posso darvi il mio personale e non richiesto parare se ne sia valsa la pena. Come al solito, niente spoiler.
