Ava Draw

No creo en puntuar libros (ni películas, ni videojuegos), no puedo reducir un libro a una cifra. Un libro es demasiadas cosas
- Es mi experiencia leyendo o releyéndolo. Cómo me hace sentir, cómo me cambia
- Es el mérito del autor creándolo en su contexto
- Es su calidad literaria
- Es lo que aporta a la sociedad
- Son sus personajes, sus tramas, sus finales
- Su riqueza cultural, su ambientación
- Su contribución al avance de la literatura
y mil cosas más, así que para mí solo existen las 5* para libros que me aportaron algo muy especial. El resto me pudo gustar mucho, pero no lo voy a reducir a un número.
Así que intentare dejar una breve nota sobre lo que me ha parecido cada libro y a quién se lo recomendaría.
Los últimos meses consumo audiolibros.

Mortykay

Hello! I am a writer from Ukraine who initially started writing to distract myself from the routine of my day job and the events unfolding around me.

Though I may not yet be an incredibly accomplished author, I am passionately dedicated to improving my skills every day. My goal is to continually enhance the quality of my writing and the depth of the stories I tell.

Currently, I am working on an ambitious project – a series of books set in my own unique universe, titled "The Immortal Drunkard." This series is a labor of love and creativity, and I have already amassed a significant amount of text that is now in the process of being refined and shaped into books.
