Opening Paragraphs


Reviews, opening paragraphs

The Blind Side of Love
TBSOL can be described as a journey of passion, feelings and madness from the L.A. glamour to the shady streets of New York where an artist and a movie star will run into love and their lives will change completely.
Julianne, an A-class movie star, lives alone in a big house full of comfort but empty. She only has two friends because her lifestyle doesn’t let her go beyond that. She has a secret.
In the other side of the country Kris Milano lives with what she thinks is the most she can get in her life: friends, family and a boyfriend called Nathan, who is a jerk. They will run into each other and they will become friends.

Easy Money
Easy money is a novel that combines many socio-economic elements that are related to a youngster’s life. For Richard Steel money is what will allow him to have everything he wants and needs in his life.

Amy, el niño de las estrellas
Amy, el niño de las estrellas tells the story of a little boy who has this meeting with another boy who apparently comes from the stars. This is where the adventures and drama begin and it is almost immediately that the reader can get lost inside the story. It is not necessary to be a kid for falling in love with the characters and the story itself.

The Red Book
It is almost a taboo for a psychologist to experience by himself his own theory. That would be a subjective point of view, not valid to be a scientific master piece. That is why “The Red Book” has caused controversial opinions and his author, Carl Jung, has been labeled as an animist or religious man, rather than as one of the most important founders of psychoanalysis.

La casa de los espíritus
A world full of fantasy and reality, paranormal abilities and good common sense, romantic relationships and politics. That is the setting of this contradictory yet so well-assembled novel. Allende, with extreme smoothness, manages to take the reader through almost every aspect of life. This, without being tiresome or confusing, which is remarkable.

The Night Circus
Magic tricks, unknown dimensions and talking animals are part of a normal day. Or are not they? In “The Night Circus” they are. Days just pass by but since you get into this circus they are not the same again.
