Gracias a la influencia del blog "La lectora omnívora" he leído libros interesantísimos. No soy de hacer reseñas sobre lo que leo, evidentemente lo mío es leer... disfrutar de la lectura y en todo caso comentar con alguien mis impresiones.
Siempre estoy a la caza de lecturas interesantes, en el formato en que se presente: novela, teatro, manga, cuento, ensayo, novela gráfica...
Por eso y para hacer la lectura más entretenida, me sumé el año pasado al desafío de 50 libros. Este año me voy a embarcar en la lectura de los libros que leyó Rory Gilmore.
