I'm doing something that I have not done in decades… reading a book in Spanish.
I found it as I was looking for something similar to the movie The Ninth Gate. I'm in love with the book right now.
Spanish is my maiden language, but I've never enjoyed Spanish literature. The only books I've read are the ones I had to for school. I don't like how Spanish authors tend to write these long and complicated sentences just to show off their vocabulary… and this one book is not an exception, but the tone is different and I don't mind it at all.
I love these books. I may have to do a reread soon because it has been quite some time since I read the earlier ones. I was very sad to read of his passing last year, but am thankful he lived long enough to finish this series. The setting, time period, and characters are so good.
