Nu o să vă povestesc acțiunea, ci voi trece direct pe comentarea ei. Începutul e promițător, ideea e bunicică, cadrul perfect, obsesie prezentă, însă, să fim realiști că în 118 pagini nu poți face o creație literară thriller bună. De la jumătate, m-a pierdut. Motivul mi se pare plictisitor, cam nefondat, dat acolo să fie, prea banal, des întâlnit in cărți, nimic nou sub orizont. Obviously, I am a big Paula Hawkins fan. In fact, she is on my top 10 list of favorite authors. What I love about her books is that I never see the end coming. However, Blind Spot is a huge disappointment. 32% into Blind Spot, I had figured out who did it and why. The Really Bad Un libro que nos muestra que pueden existir tantos "puntos ciegos" cuando no queremos ver la realidad. Nunca he leído a Paula Hawkins y me estreno con ella gracias a este audiolibro, cortito, que va directamente al grano, sin presentarnos más que a los personajes principales y solo dos lugares, dos casas donde se desarrolla todo. La bocca di Lara si spalancò in un pianto silenzioso. «Come puoi dire una cosa del genere? Come puoi essere così cieca?»No voy a mentir, me ha enganchado desde el principio y Paula Hawkins me parece que tiene una pluma muy buena, ya que va directa al grano sin ningún tipo de rodeo, y además los capítulos son cortísimos.

A Slow Fire Burning will be seen, rightly, as a return to form; a London book from an excellent writer on London, and a tender portrait of characters that stay in the mind long after you’ve finished reading. Hawkins is resigned to the fact that the Cinderella story of the first book will always outshine all the others and, while trying to remain divorced from the mania, is grateful for what it has brought her. She bought a nicer flat. She stayed in more expensive hotels when she travelled. And she bought a car – “but it’s electric. It’s not a Ferrari.” Book Genre: Adult, Contemporary, Crime, Fiction, Mystery, Mystery Thriller, Psychological Thriller, Short Stories, Suspense, Thriller Blind Spot centers on a trio of friends: Edie, Jake, and Ryan.

However, when Ryan stops by for his weekly run, someone has murdered Jake. Who did it? Paula Hawkins knew how to develop her characters, I read all her books and I knew how she could got me addicted to her characters.La autora en pocas páginas no solo intenta confundirnos con lo que parece ser un extraño triángulo amoroso, sino que también encontramos abusos sexuales y la falta de solidaridad entre mujeres.

She then worked for a number of publications on a freelance basis, and wrote a financial-advice book for women, The Money Goddess. [2] Epilogul acela, finalul, poate s-a încercat o diversificare că să nu se termine prea banal, hai că murim și gata. Dar a trebuit să îl citesc de vreo câteva ori să înțeleg ce naiba s-a putut întâmplă.
