a bookworm?

No, im not a book worm, I like to read from time to time, but now I have to read tons of books because of the university.  When I was child I hate to read, in the school I took the whole month to read the book that we must read.

Now I like more to read. I don´t like to categorize what kind of books I prefer. If it called my attention has a lot of possibilities to being read. My favourite book, when I was a child was “Las descabelladas aventuras de Julito Cabello”, but when I was in 5^th grade someone stole it from my class room. Now I think my favourite author is Edgar Allan Poe, I can read his compilation book whenever I want. But a book that I think is my favourite is “Carlomagno” by Harold Lamb.

The last book that I read was “La semana en que se juntan los siglos”. I enjoy it but I can’t finish because I read it in the summer and it was about 500 pages, and when I enter to the university I prioritized it, so it have about 30 pages left to finish it . It was a gift from my grandmother when I left the school, in November of 2011, so from then to all along the summer, I was reading it.

The book is about a conspiracy in the Chilean army who wants to give a tribute to Augusto Pinochet as a founding father. So, the main character founds a tunnels underneath the center of Santiago, in where was hide the body of Pinochet and he have to protect the president because all this was occurring during the week of the celebration of bicentenary, so the president was in a difficult position because the army was pulling pressure to him to accept the things that they want, and also stop a war with Perú, because the army stole a submarine and they threaten to attack the Peru’s army. I recommend it because is interesting how the author, who don’t give us his name, write this book including a lot of military things and creating a situation that could happen. It is a good book but a little slow in the story but in the final chapter it stoles your attention.
