¡¡Buenos días!!
Nuevamente vengo por aquí a traeros una nueva reseña. En esta ocasión el libro del que os vengo a hablar es un libro en inglés: The Careful Use of Compliments de Alexander McCall Smith.
For philosophically minded Isabel Dalhousie, editor of the Review of Applied Ethics, getting through life with a clear conscience requires careful thought. And with the arrival of baby Charlie, not to mention a passionate relationship with his father Jamie, fourteen years her junior, Isabel enters deeper and rougher waters.
Late motherhood is not the only challenge facing Isabel. Even as she negotiates a truce with her furious niece Cat, and struggles for authority over her son with her formidable housekeeper Grace, Isabel finds herself drawn into the story of a painter's mysterious death off the island of Jura. Perhaps most seriously of all, Isabel's professional existence and that of her beloved Review come under attack from the machiavellian and suspiciously handsome Professor Dove.
The Careful Use of Compliments ha sido el primer libro "normal" y algo extenso (en mi idioma significa que no es de nivel jijiji) en inglés que leo en mucho tiempo, por ello me siento muy orgullosa de mi misma de poder traeros la reseña del mismo. Sin embargo, me da un poco de pena, el que la misma no va a ser demasiado entusiasta.
