October 2017 Wrap up


The leaves, the pumpkins, the witches and the vampires. A month for cozy tights and light jackets and good novels. Here are my October reads, not many but two novels were over 600 pages each:

The two-family house - L. Cohen Loigman
A great family saga set in Jewish NY city in the 50s. Loved it!
Rating:  9 out of 10

The widow - F. Barton
Gripping and engrossing dark story, very enjoyable.
Rating:  7,5 out of 10

Dentro soffia il vento - F. Diotallevi
Non esattemente il mio genere. Passo!
Rating:  6 out of 10

Autumn - A. Smith
I just cannot get into her writing style at all.
Rating:  Abandoned

A question of trust - P. Vincenzi
Enchanting, gossipy, a treat!
Rating:  7 out of 10

4321 - P. Auster
Written very well and original idea, but way too long and dull in parts.
Rating: 6 out 10

Not working - L. Owens
Like reading a magazine, nice enough, but very forgettable.
Rating: 5 out 10

We have always lived in the castle - S. Jackson
Gothic, strange, brilliant!
Rating;  8,5 out of 10

Le tre del mattino - G. Carofiglio
Commovente, denso, bello bello bello
Rating:  9 out of 10
