#shadow of the wind

[bookworm-returning]

Welcome to the cemetery of forgotten books. (…) This is a place of mystery, a sanctuary. Every book, every volume you see here, has a soul. The soul of the person who wrote it and those who read it and lived and dreamed with it. Every time a book changes hands, every time someone runs his eyes down its pages, its spirit grows and strengthens. (…) When a library disappears, or a bookshop closes down, when a book is consigned to oblivion, those of us who know this place, its guardians, make sure that it gets here. In this place, books no longer remembered by anyone, books that are lost in time, live forever, waiting for the day when they will reach a new readers hands. In the shop we buy and sell them, but in truth books have no owner. Every book you see here has been somebody’s best friend. Now they only have us. Do you think you’ll be able to keep such a secret?

Pocas cosas engañan más que los recuerdos.

La gente que no tiene vida siempre se tiene que meter en la de los demás.

Sabía que quien quiere de verdad quiere en silencio, con hechos y nunca con palabras.

Hay personas que se recuerdan y otras que se sueñan.

No hay segundas oportunidades, excepto para el remordimiento.

Las casualidades son las cicatrices del destino.

Las personas estamos dispuestas a creer cualquier cosa antes que la verdad.

Shadow of the Wind by Katsu Nakajima

[mountainmaven]

Shadow of the Wind is one of my favourites!! Such an atmospheric book. The whole series is great

Awww I'm so glad you enjoyed it!!

Sadly, it was a DNF for me. The writing was lovely, really beautiful. But the story was just not engaging enough for me to continue with it. Plus for me, there was just too much crammed into one book. I got far enough into the book to realize that I just didn't care what happened so I decided to DNF it. :-( But truly the writing is really beautiful.
