else who bothered holidays
Yesterday was the day of the book, but between various processions and floods, not the party that looked much concerned. And reading this blog is as necessary as eating, today it's a meme about books that I found there.
The last book I read . Guardians of Twilight, by Sergei Lukyanenko. This is the last of the trilogy of the Guardians, an urban fantasy series written by a Russian (sorry, Kazakh) quite peculiar: the author goes through the lining all the simplicities of good and evil, taking a much more diffuse story about the morality of the characters. Oh, and also has two films based on the book, which seem like an egg with a potato. But they are incredibly fun.
The book I am reading. Le parfum de la dame en noir, by Gaston Leroux. If at this stage do not master the language of that country in which job offers, is because the French had a much more varied literary offering.
The book that changed my thinking. Gormenghast, Mervyn Peake. They say the second half of the twentieth century has two types of readers: those who like Lord of the rings, and they like Titus Groan. I am among the latter.
The last book that made me mourn: General Tax Law. Only by reading the part of the record of compliance, it jumped me start crying now and Lima
The last book that made me laugh . Maskerade by Terry Pratchett. They had never given a definition of ballet as successful as the author of Discworld (yes, the dancers are dedicated to that voluntarily!)
A borrowed book that I have returned . Dark Essence by Tim Powers. But it did not really miss.
A borrowed book that I have not returned. The Chronicles of Elric of Melniboné, the same person that I returned the other. Quid pro quo, doctor.
A book read again. Wow, very many, and depending on your mood. From The Legion of the Damned by Sven Hassel, to Dostoevsky's Crime and Punishment.
A book that changed my life. New General Accounting Plan. At worst, that is.
A book to give to the blind. The Golem, by Gustav Meyrink. No home is complete without a copy.
A book that surprised me for good. Wuthering Heights, Emily Brontë. Heatcliff nowhere near going to look like the romantic anti-hero that many readers will love, but the characters made me funny, if only so that they are insane, the poor.
A book that disappointed me . Anansi Boys by Neil Gaiman. I always thought a guy a little overrated.
A book I found lost. One, whose name escapes me on the contemporary history of Spain, in English, which left some American tourists. For the lead that is, statistical and economic data, is surprisingly short. Of course history end of the country in 1986.
A book I stole. The Lord of the Rings, Tolkien. But I had up to me first, and you know what happens when a thief steals.
not for this man, I would not be here

The author of more books that I have . I have the complete works of HP Lovecraft and almost all of Jean Ray, for what they're tied.
A valuable book. My Penguin edition of Titus Groan, Gormenghast and Titus Alone, now in the safe of a Swiss bank.
A book that I've been meaning to read: Joyce's Ulysses, to see if the lion is as fierce as they paint.
A book that would ban : Omeñaca any of Jesus, a man willing to destroy the psyche of learners Accountant.
The next book I read . If God does not intervene, Le Bossu, Paul feval. That swashbuckling in France were not exclusive to the Dumas family.
Because this meme is not to nominate anyone, please either make use of it.
