The savage detectives 5
Hi everybody!!! The end of SD did not really compel me or excite me. The novel was not for me and I often felt that it could have been shorter ( but i mean , its length exists for a reason). I remember there was a diary entry about buying toothbrushes and Lupe taking too […] Continue reading

Don Quixote two
Hello Everybody , I am starting to enjoy Don Quixote. He is ABSOLUTELY CRAZY , but maybe that happens to you when fiction takes over your life?
