What Color Shutters Should I Get

Joseph Delaney Spook's apprentice

At first glance this series had nothing to draw me: bloodthirsty witches, ghosts, demons, cemeteries, the Sabbaths in the moonlight, the whole panoply of horror Gothic cheap, and warnings to the title of the 4th coverage: "Warning! History not to read at night ... .

And besides, I have long left on the shelves of department libraries youth.
Whether in movies, books or galas, be afraid to scare never been my cup of tea.
But once came in through idleness and curiosity one day I was seduced, and I found that I had no fear, and not just because I'm an adult, filsainé and girly read, and evening including, without feeling anxiety.

So it's about what, where it is?

Their job is hard, poorly recognized, the Church often judged as poorly as they fight enemies and yet it is only effective against the dark forces of progress. Some are almost
predestined to rise in defense of property, This is the seventh son of seventh son, as our hero, who becomes apprentice to the Spook County.
Her life will be hectic, threatened many times, not only his life, his soul too, it will show a constant courage, wisdom, too. It is going to experience fear, cold, pain, love.

a neat, elegant and sober, which many authors of adult literature should build (and no I will not mention names)
intrigues exciting, unpredictable, suspense that keeps breath throughout the books, characters, subtle and profound, a universe half familiar, half-alien but perfectly logical.

His faults?
I do not see. Certainly no sense of humor, but I think it would not, anyway, flashes of humor in these novels, of which only the seriousness and intelligence with which they are built just save the ridiculous should have stories where witches pursue you with scissors. (Among others)

Eva Ibbotson: Queen River

A novel soft and clear in the tradition of English novels that oppose the rigidity and inhumanity some typical English education, the heart impulses and spontaneity of children full of life, love and openness to others and the world.

Here a young orphan escapes a legacy institution stuffy Victorian England to become the prey of a vicious and neurotic family settled on the banks of the Amazon, and English settlers through and through in everything it may comprise narrow, devious and racist.

Donna Leon: Inquiry Commissioner Brunetti

The 14 (approx.) surveys Guido Brunetti Venetian read all with interest and pleasure, both as puzzles police, as immersed in Italian society, and as sightseeing tours of Venice out the beaten track for tourists.

The central character of the books by Donna Leon, is Venice's labyrinthine streets, palaces rotting, its lagoon dragging corpses from time to time, slightly corrupt his soul, his tongue, a dialect that does not include the Venetians of birth.

We follow with surprise or amusement the vagaries of the investigation having to do with corruption or incompetence of all state services, flavored with his strange subterranean social relations between the Venetians, made of clientelism and exchange of favors, we observed the gap between Italy's North and South, we sometimes see the tentacles of the Mafia reach even the proud and ancient city of the Doges. We also monitors

Commissioner returning home, tasting dishes for him and alien to us, sharing his life with his wife and children, and despite the distance we find ourselves here in this small family unit, tasteful but not too idealized.

And then we find the same flaws, leading to the same violent deaths in the world.
