Inside the O'Briens by Lisa Genova

Inside the O'Briens by Lisa Genova
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

As a work of fiction I fervently disagree about the choices the author made regarding the people of the O'Briens's family with the HD, that said this one was more "felt" in a way compared to the last one (Left Neglected) but I don't think it is yet as good as Still Alice.

Siccome é un libro basato su una malattia reale ma in una famiglia finta, non sono d'accordo con la scelta dell'autrice rispetto a chi far ammalare degli O'Briens. Detto questo credo che questo sia un libro piú "sentito" rispetto a "Left Neglected", ma ancora non raggiunge Still Alice.

Creative Incentives (Beyond #9.1) by Kit Rocha

Creative Incentives by Kit Rocha
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

It was really too too short to be enjoyable in my opinion.

Era veramente troppo corto per essere godibile secondo me.

Left Neglected by Lisa Genova

Left Neglected by Lisa Genova
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

It was not bad, but I liked Still Alice much more because it was more sad of course and in a way this book has its happy ending, in a way, but it seemed to me that this was much more clinical and the other one was more emphatic.

Non male, ma Still Alice secondo me era meglio, soprattutto perché era struggente mentre questo, tutto sommato, finisce pure bene, ma sembra quasi sempre troppo clinico mentre l'altro era piú empatico.

Tripped Out (Blacktop Cowboys, #8.5) by Lorelei James

Tripped Out by Lorelei James
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

Nothing special, the only interesting part was all about recreational Marijuana. Probably it was not the right moment to read Lorelei James, even if I usually enjoy her books a lot.

Veramente una novella da poco, anche se ho imparato un sacco sulla Marijuana. Probabilmente non era il momento di leggere Lorelei James, anche se di solito lei mi piace parecchio.

Still Alice by Lisa Genova

Still Alice by Lisa Genova
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

As a real story, this one shattered my heart to pieces, even if I studied Alzheimer disease before, but told from the patient point of view it's devastating. Lisa Genova is a good writer and a neuroscientist and she actually take the vacant place left by Oliver Sacks. I'm going to read her other books right now.

Questa é una storia vera che mi ha spezzato il cuore, anche se avevo studiato l'Alzehimer anche all'universitá, ma l'effetto é diverso quando le parole sono quelle di un paziente. Lisa Genova ´una brava scrittrice oltre che neuroscienziata e potrebbe tranquillamente colmare la lacuna lasciata da Oliver Sacks. Credo che passeró direttamente ad un altro suo libro.

The Sun and Her Flowers by Rupi Kaur

The Sun and Her Flowers by Rupi Kaur
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This author keeps on making me feel mixed feelings about her poetry, some I found cheap, some other sentences are really beautiful....

Questa autrice continua a scrivere libri che mi lasciano piuttosto perplessa perché alcune poesie sono veramente schifezze che ho letto anche sui miei diari delle scuole medie, mentre altre frasi sono veramente molto belle e toccanti....

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Das Buch war nicht schlecht, aber sicher nichts Unvergessliches; aber es ist wahrscheinlich meine Schuld, dass ich Probleme mit der Mystik habe.

Il libro non era male, ma sicuramente niente di indimenticabile; probabile però che sia colpa mia che ho problemi con il misticismo.
