On writing – book review

by moonlight lady 29. April 2019 The Reading Corner 2

Today I’m going to talk about a kind of book that I don’t usually read. Moreover, I would say that I had never read anything like it before. The book is On Writing by Stephen King and is a hybrid of writing manual and autobiography. Why do not I usually read these genres? Some may ...

My broken heart

by moonlight lady 26. April 2019 Tales 2

It took me years to heal my broken heart and now, at last, I had managed to gather the courage to return to the place where everything happened. Its ruins rose before my eyes, even more majestic than when the building was standing. I entered and went straight to that room that had appeared so ...

Peacocks, colored paper and lights in Madrid

by moonlight lady 24. April 2019 Wanderlust 2

These Easter holiday we decided to make an express trip to Madrid. With the AVE you arrive so fast and, despite the bad weather and that we already have two other trips to the capital this year, it’s worth it. It is true that the weather was not the best. It rained and the temperature ...

The pleasure of enjoying a good book

those people whose faces light up when someone asks them about their passions; but also who can spend hours talking about the same thing once someone has brought up the subject.

Pet Sematery – book review

by moonlight lady 03. April 2019 The Reading Corner 0

Pet Sematery is one of the many books that Stephen King has written and it may now sound especially familiar thanks to the movie that is out tomorrow. Well, the trailer caught my attention (I’ll return to this later) and, as I NEVER see a movie without reading the book first, I ran to buy ...

Every year in Valencia, around the months of February and March, the Fair of Old and Used Books takes place. And, of course, this year I also went to see it, although I must confess that I left for the very last day! Dozens stands full of old books and not so old books at a super ...

What if I don’t like fallas?

by moonlight lady 22. March 2019 Valencia 4

To many this may sound unconceivable, but you can be Valencian and hate fallas. In fact, I would say that the love-hate ratio for this festivity will approach 50-50 and I am among the 50% who would like to flee from Valencia every time these dates approach. Do not misunderstand me, I know they are ...

The mistakes we make

by moonlight lady 14. March 2019 Diary 0

As human beings, we are in some way destined to make mistakes. In fact I would say that a lot of we go of blunder in blunder. It’s normal, don’t be alarmed. After all, everything has a solution and that solution depends on us most of the time. The problem comes when the only thing ...
