Who out there loves to read? I think we need to start a book report site where we tell what we just read along with a brief description of the book and if you recommend it, etc.
I will go first:
The Shadow of the Wind by Carlos Ruiz Zafon
I just finished this book of fiction that takes place in Barcelona, Spain and the main character starts out as a young boy who is taken to a place called “The Cemetery of Forgotten Books.” He takes one book and is to be responsible for it all his life. The book follows this boy in his quest to find out all he can about the author of the book. It takes him until his young adult years to unravel the author’s story. Most of the book takes place in the post Spanish Civil War years. I would give it an “R” rating due to violence and some sexuality, but the book is well worth reading.
I read a lot of books on audio due to vision problems and this book is particularly good on audio.
