Posted on March 15, 2022 by OlgaNunez
Hi all: I am not a mother, but recently I have read two books that shine a pretty special light on motherhood. You might remember my review for Chouette, and this one, although totally different, I think will also stay with me for a long time. And it has a fantastic title as well. The

#Bookreview Children in the Second World War: Memories from the Home Front by Amanda Herbert-Davies (@penswordbooks) For those interested in history from the point of view of the people in the street and a reminder of why this should not happen to any children.

Posted on May 18, 2017 by OlgaNunez
Hi all: For some reason this week we have more non-fiction books than fictional ones, but they are all wonderful and truly different, so here comes a historical one that I found irresistible. Children in the Second World War: Memories from the Home Front by Amanda Herbert-Davies It was not just the upheaval caused by evacuation

#Bookreview GOOD ME BAD ME by Ali Land (@byAliLand) A not so innocent girl in a twisted world. Not heavy on explicit violence but a true psychological chiller.

Posted on April 5, 2017 by OlgaNunez

Posted on March 15, 2017 by OlgaNunez
Hi all: As promised, I’m going down my list of reviews. As it’s in alphabetic order, it’s luck of the draw what comes up, genre-wise, but you won’t have to wait long for the next one. All I Ever Wanted by Lucy Dillon I recommend it to anybody who loves a gentle story about families, with no scandals,

I am a language teacher, writer and bookworm who worked for many years as a forensic psychiatrist, and also have a Ph.D. in American Literature, and an MSc in Criminology. I started publishing my stories, in English and Spanish, in 2012 and now have over twenty books available in a variety of genres, a blog (in English and Spanish), and translate books for other authors (English-Spanish and vice versa). In 2020 obtained the CELTA certificate as a language teacher, and offer Spanish and English classes. Writers and readers both in English and Spanish are my friends, colleagues and allies, and after living in the UK for over twenty-five years, have returned home, to Barcelona, in Spain, searching for inspiration for my stories. Oh, I also love the radio (I volunteer at a local radio station, Sants 3 Ràdio) and all things owl. Do feel free to connect with me.
