Hi dear fellows. Just finished first semester of 2009. Now, more time for myself, to read, to rest, to enjoy my free time along with my beloved family.

I hv read the book: "O menino do pijama listrado". Very sensitive story but sad. After that I have read a nice story by Geraldine Brooks "As memorias do livro". Very well written and besides the story itself it has brought me large amounts of culture because I had the opportunity to visit some places through the story like Bosnia (Sarajevo), Vienna (Austria), and Hungary. I have also spent some days in Israel, I have travelled throug the time, 1492, can you imagine?Inquisition time and so on. Wonderful novel. I highly recommend. Lots of kisses.
