Beauty and the Highland Beast by Lecia Cornwall

My rating: 2 of 5 stars

I didn't like this book very much, too much complications between witch, nightmares and ghosts; it seemed to me that the romance was not even there, even if the plot idea was not bad, in the end the story was unnecessarily complicated and too long.

Questo libro non mi ha fatto impazzire, anzi....troppe complicazioni tra streghe, incubi e fantasmi; alla fine non sembrava nemmeno di leggere una storia d'amore e per quanto l'idea iniziale non fosse banale, alla fine la storia era troppo lunga e complicata.

The Intentional Brain: Motion, Emotion, and the Development of Modern Neuropsychiatry by Michael R Trimble
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

The history of neuropsychiatry from the beginning, when people used to talk about soul, till now, when they are still searching for the consciousness in the brain. From time to time it was a little bit boring, but still interesting if you are into the subject.

La storia della neuropsichiatria dall'inizio, quando si parlava di anima, fino ad ora, quando si cerca il substrato biologico della coscienza. Ogni tanto era un po' noioso, ma se l'argomento vi interessa questo é il libro che fa per voi.

Life from Elsewhere: Journeys Through World Literature by Amit Chaudhuri
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Life and literature, and journeys and different places trough the words of famous writers and their translators. Some stories are better than others but all of them are beautifully written.

La vita, la letteratura e i viaggi e i differenti posti attraverso le parole di autori famosi e dei loro traduttori (inglesi). Alcune storie sono meglio di altre, ma tutte sono molto ben scritte.

Highly Sensitive People in an Insensitive World: How to Create a Happy Life by Ilse Sand

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

As an highly sensitive person myself, I found this book quite interesting, but sometimes I found the answer it gave where a little bit too simplistic, but maybe just because I'm sensitive in my own way, which is a very social one, so of course I'm different as other people usually don't bother me much and maybe that's also the reason why I'm a psychotherapist and not a librarian :)

Come persona molto sensibile, ho trovato questo libro abbastanza iteressante, se non fosse che a volte le risposte mi sembravano un po' facilone, ma questo puó anche essere dovuto al fatto che io sia molto sociale nonostante tutto e magari é anche la ragione per cui facevo la psicoterapeuta e non la bibliotecaria, che peró resta sempre un'opzione valida.
