Review: Fist of the North Star, Vol. 18

Fist of the North Star, Vol. 18 by Buronson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I was almost moved reading this ending all about Lynn and Burt (in Italy). Once again Ken sacrifices himself for the sake of someone else. This is what I write, but sometimes I also think Ken is the king of misogynists and afraid of relationships, but okay, he certainly wouldn't be the first.

Mi sono quasi commossa leggento questo finale tutto dedicato a quelli che in Italia erano Lynn e Burt. Ancora una volta Ken sacrifica se stesso per il bene di qualcun altro. Questo é quello che scrivo, ma a volte penso anche che Ken sia il re dei misogini e che abbia paura delle relazioni, ma ok, non sarebbe certo il primo.

I received from the Publisher a complimentary digital advanced review copy of the book in exchange for a honest review.

La fabbrica di cioccolato by Roald Dahl
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Non avevo mai letto la fabbrica di cioccolato e ho colto l'occasione quando lo stava leggendo mio figlio e mi sono divertita per un paio d'ore. Menzione d'onore per i traduzioni che hanno reso le poesie degli Umpa Lumpa in modo magistrale.

My rating: 2 of 5 stars

Il y a quelque chose dans ce livre par A.E. ce qui met en péril l'idée que je me suis construit à travers les livres précédents. Sûrement elle a raison, je veux dire, considérant que c'est son histoire qu'elle écrit, mais quelque chose de fondamentalement est faux et ne me revient pas.

C'é qualcosa in questo libro di A.E. che in qualche modo stona con l'idea che attraverso i libri precedenti mi ero costruita di lei. Sicuramente ha ragione lei, voglio dire considerato che é la sua storia quella che sta scrivendo, ma in qualche modo qualcosa di fondo é stonato e non mi torna.

My rating: 2 of 5 stars

I am fed up with McGrath's crazy women, I just can't stand anymore. I gave up more or less after 100 pages.

Non ne posso piú di leggere delle donne pazze di McGrath, sinceramente proprio non ce la faccio, quindi ho abbandonato piú o meno a pagina 100.

The Valiant by Matt Kindt
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I liked this comic a lot in a sort of unexpected way, even if it is usually not my cup of tea. The story was linear and enjoyable and the illustrations were appropriated. Recommendable.

Diamonds Book mi ha mandato per caso questo fumetto ed in modo altrettanto inaspettato a me é piaciuto parecchio, anche se questo genere di solito non mi fa impazzire. La storia era lineare ed i disegni quelli giusti per raccontarla. Da leggere!
