¡Hi!  We have opened this new section because we want our contents to be more international :)) In this first part we're going to talk about fantasy books that we have read. We hope that you enjo it.

*A shadow bright and burning - Jessica Cluess: It's about a medieval world, with witches and magicians, where women are underestimate (the society is sexist), but the one (a female wizard) has to safe the people from the enemies' attack.
It's interesting because there's a fight between magicians and sorcerers, the last aren't allowed to practise magic, and it's addictive due to the fact that Jessica has a very enchanting writing style. I recommend it a lot, it isn't a waste of time, if you like fantasy and a bit of romance.

*The forbbiden wish - Jessica Khoury: A new version of the Aladdin's tale; more feminist, up-to-date and adventurous. If you like Disney stories you can't lose these novel, it won't disappoint you! I recommend it a lot because I felt in love with the characters, the plot twists and the action; it was better tan I expected :)

*Angel fall - Susan Ee: It's an apocalyptic future where the angels try to exterminate humans, there's a war between the two species, and a girl falls in love with one of them. They make a kind of alliance and go throw some adventures that will get them closer. It's a very beautiful love story and the book is full of action, plot twits and tension moments. I totally recommend it :)

*Graceling - Kristin Cashore: In Katsa's world, set in the Middle Ages, there are humans who are born with a very special trait. Rarely, one can be born with eye heterocromia, this indicating they have been blessed (or cursed, depending on who you ask) with an extreme skill: a Grace.
And Katsa, part of the loyal family, is one of those people. She was Graced with the skill of killing, and is being used by the king for his own purposes... until Katsa rebels against him.
This fantasy book has action and a pinch of romance, also the mistery of the Graced ones is still hidden, adding a little bit of suspense.

(Trilogy) Spanish review by Nyn 
Spanish review by Myn

Graceling es la primera parte de una trilogía y la primera obra de Cashore.

Este libro nos narra la historia de Katsa,  una chica graceling; ser un graceling implica  poseer un ojo de cada color y  tener una gracia.
Katsa tiene la gracia de matar;  cuyo tío aprovecha para sus recados.
A la vez que ella cumple con las ordenes de su tío,  salva vidas bajo el nombre del Consejo; un grupo formado por sus amigos y gente que apoya la idea de ayudar a los que lo necesitan.
La vida de esta chica cambia, cuando en una expedición del Consejo conoce a un chico graceling llamado Po,  dando así un giro irreversible que la llevará a arriesgar su vida,  a salvar la de una niña y a combatir el mal liberando a un pueblo de su malvado rey.
Es una novela de fantasía que se sitúa la edad medieval y que esta mezclada con un romance muy interesante.

Opinión personal:

Me ha parecido una novela llena de color,  alegría y sobre todo originalidad.  Cashore ha demostrado que tiene mucha imaginación y que sabe construir unos personajes que te sorprenden en cada página. 
Sinceramente la he disfrutado muchísimo,  tanto en los momentos de acción que te hacían sentir pánico y adrenalina,  como en los momentos de romance que te transmitían las sensaciones y sentimientos de los personajes.  He vivido esta historia en la piel de Katsa y he sentido todo lo que ella vivía; por eso y muchas cosas más la puntúo con un 9'85 de 10.

Pd: la única pega,  bajo mi punto de vista,  es que repite demasiado los nombres a la hora de escibir.  Por lo demás es estupenda. 

Kisses,

Myn
