○◘• My favorite book is...•◘○

The last book I read was in the summer and it was the best book I read in my life! The book called “La Sombra del Viento” wrote by Carlos Ruiz Zafón it was publish in 2002 but the book arrived to Chile in 2008.

“La Sombra del Viento” is an excellent historical novel to has intrigue, thriller, comedy and a tragic story of love. The novel intertwining the plot and something mysteries in an exciting story about the secret of the heart and the magic of the books.

The story start with Daniel Sempere, he is a child of five years old and with his father went to the “cemetery of books forgotten”.  In that place the Daniel`s father did say to Daniel must choose one book, reading it and to look after forever. The problem start when Daniel discovered a prohibited book called “La Sombra del Viento” wrote by Julian Carax.  Julian Carax disappears in the war of Spain and nobody knows what happened with him. Daniel beginning to investigate like a detective why the books wrote by Julian Carax is burnt and who person is burnt all the books of Julian Carax.

The story of love starts when Daniel knows a woman ten years older than him when he is investigating about Julian Carax in the house of a collector of books.  

While I read the book I can know the life of Barcelona in the period of the Industrial revolution until the years after of the Civil war of Spain.  

Now the novel is a best seller translation to 36 different languages.

I can read the book because I registered in the library “bibliometro” and I had to waiting for the book one month! But the wait was worth it.   

I love the novel! Now I waiting for the winter vacation for read other books wrote by Carlos Ruiz Zafon for example:

- El Juego del Angel.

- El principe de la Niebla.
