BOOKS
Hi everybody!!
Today we gonna talk about one of my favorite hobbies.....books!
I learned to read at an early age. According to my parents, I learned to read by myself, asking my sisters a
certain letter had to be pronounced. Myth or reality, the thing is that I have read almost all my life.
When I must choose a favorite thing, about any topic, it´s very hard for me because there are a lot of good books (in this case), but they are about totally differents themes and it´s difficulty compare among them. My favorite genres are detective stories, Sci Fi, Fantasy/Adventure and a bit of Philosophy.
So well... I must mention Arthur Conan Doyle´s "Sherlock Holmes" novels because they are classics, even that the story has some plot mistakes. I also wanna Laura Gallego like my favorite Fantasy writer, because I like the Universe that she proposes in her novels, making it like magic and gods can be explained as real things and almost scientifically. There is a logic inside fantasy, I don´t know if I explain myself. Even so, I must make an honorable mention to Harry Potter saga, because it´s the first long novel that I read and it introduced me the genre. Also, it´s a saga that grew up with me, maturing in content and plot. Unforgettable.
But finally, the highlight to me going to Isaac Asimov, He´s a scientist that wrote books to make science understandable to common people. He wrote many kinds of stories (love, police novel, mistery, drama, comedy..) but always in the framework of a future with robots, spaceships, and a lot of Sci Fi concepts. Also, he wrote many books that includes several stories, so it´s easier to read that way. If you are interested in this Genre, I really recommend him. My favorite book from him, is "The bicentennial man".
So what about you? Do you like reading? If you don´t, why are you reading this? And if you do like, who is is your favorite author and/or wath is your favorite book?
