[Reseña] The Duke and I de Julia Quinn
By all accounts, Simon Basset is on the verge of proposing to his best friend's sister, the lovely—and almost-on-the-shelf—Daphne Bridgerton. But the two of them know the truth—it's all an elaborate plan to keep Simon free from marriage-minded society mothers. And as for Daphne, surely she will attract some worthy suitors now that it seems a duke has declared her desirable. But as Daphne waltzes across ballroom after ballroom with Simon, it's hard to remember that their courtship is a complete sham. Maybe it's his devilish smile, certainly it's the way his eyes seem to burn every time he looks at her... but somehow Daphne is falling for the dashing duke... for real! And now she must do the impossible and convince the handsome rogue that their clever little scheme deserves a slight alteration, and that nothing makes quite as much sense as falling in love... |

[Cinema] Trailer de Divergent
Este es el primer trailer de la película Divergent. Esta está basada en el libro que lleva el mismo nombre, el cual es el primero de una serie. Según tengo entendido, esta serie de estilo distopia es muy popular, yo aun no la he leído.
La actriz que tiene el papel protagónico en Divergent es Shailene Woodley, quien últimamente sale hasta en la sopa :P. También hace aparición la aclamada actriz Kate Winslet, me parece que como villana.
Esta película se estrenará en los cines de Estados Unidos el 21 de marzo de 2014.

[Reseña] Starcrossed de Josephine Angelini
How do you defy destiny? Helen Hamilton has spent her entire sixteen years trying to hide how different she is—no easy task on an island as small and sheltered as Nantucket. And it's getting harder. Nightmares of a desperate desert journey have Helen waking parched, only to find her sheets damaged by dirt and dust. At school she's haunted by hallucinations of three women weeping tears of blood . . . and when Helen first crosses paths with Lucas Delos, she has no way of knowing they're destined to play the leading roles in a tragedy the Fates insist on repeating throughout history. As Helen unlocks the secrets of her ancestry, she realizes that some myths are more than just legend. But even demigod powers might not be enough to defy the forces that are both drawing her and Lucas together—and trying to tear them apart. |
