Women by Luis Royo
2.0
I usually love [author: Luis Royo]'s works, and although this one wasn't bad (the art is amazing as usual), it wasn't my favorite of his books.
El Puente de Otoño by Takashi Matsuoka
5.0
I adore this one. If you liked the first one (Cloud of Sparrows), you'll love this one too.
666 by Jay Anson
5.0
Not counting young adult novels of less than 20 pages, this is the first "real" book I ever read, and I loved it. I still read it once in a while again.
The Black Jewels Trilogy by Anne Bishop
5.0
There is sex, there is blood, there is violence.
When I first got this book (it was a gift), I looked at it with a little reluctance (mostly for it's massive size seeing as it was 3-in-1), but it came from a friend who's reading habits I trust and mostly share, and so I started reading.
I don't regret it one bit. Although between the first and second book I put it down for about a month, the rest of the time I was glued to the pages, wanting to know just what would happen next.
I thought at first it wouldn't quite be my cup of tea, but I was left wanting to read more of [author: Anne Bishop]'s works as soon as I was done reading.
There were some things in between that didn't sound too... concise; however, I loved the story and characters nonetheless, the whole hierarchy and concept was very interesting.
If you like fantasy, and you are okay with the three stated above, I'd say chances are you'll like this one.

The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien
3.0
This was read mostly out of obligation, while I liked the story and all, I can't help but feel no sympathy for hobbits.
My neighbor first introduced me to [author: J.R.R. Tolkien]'s writing- I wanted to read Lord of The Rings, but he insisted (and with good reason) that in order to understand everything better I had to read The Hobbit first (or he wouldn't lend me LOTR... ) And so I did.
The story and writing are excellent and it certainly cleared up questions I would've had reading LOTR without any background, but I felt little sympathy for the characters, so it doesn't get more than three stars.

The Lover by Marguerite Duras
4.0
I personally found the writing (or at least in the Spanish version that I have) to be hideous.
Nevertheless, I liked the story so much I read it to the end. I simply adore this story.
