Acho-os tremendos no modo como agarram o leitor, nada mais se passa enquanto não se chega ao fim. Pensei q tivessem passado despercebidos, mas fico com um sorriso aberto ao constatar que não, e isso é muito bom.<BR/><BR/>deixo 2 sugestões, uma semelhante e outra completamente diferente, mas simplesmente o melhor livro que li nos ultimos tempos (e leio 3 ou 4 por mes, muitas viagens de metro :) ): "the master butcher's singing club" de louise eldrich e "Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close" de jonathan safran foer.<BR/><BR/>**su (www.wiseup-weddings.com)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13107713.post-10082169970219161592007-08-21T23:54:00.000+01:002007-08-21T23:54:00.000+01:00Historical fiction is one of my favourite genres, ...Historical fiction is one of my favourite genres, thanks for the reading tips, I'll have to add those 2 to my list!<BR/>Also weighing in with a tip of my own, have you read Geraldine Brooks' Year of Wonders?Carsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05198570605621636061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13107713.post-33382832911007932152007-08-21T21:50:00.000+01:002007-08-21T21:50:00.000+01:00My husband got me hooked on the Lymond books years...My husband got me hooked on the Lymond books years ago -- they were so good!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13107713.post-88248775381476846602007-08-21T19:15:00.000+01:002007-08-21T19:15:00.000+01:00I love Phillipa Gregory's Boelyn books, but cannot...I love Phillipa Gregory's Boelyn books, but cannot for the life of me finish Pillars of the Earth...so long!
