(Nivel B2) Read in English!: Harry Potter

I first picked up a Harry Potter book by mere chance, in the days prior to the films exploding it into, what would become, quite simply a global phenomenon. It is a mere 223 pages long, I read it in one afternoon, enjoyed a (dare I say it?) “nice” little book and didn’t much more of it at the time... Fast forward 10 years and the Harry Potter sensation is truly among us. The actors from the films are household names, the merchandising a veritable gold mine and every child dreaming of being a Gryffindor wizard or a seeker for Slytherin...

(Nivel C1) The Fry Chronicles - Stephen Fry

THIS SUMMER SCOTT IS READING... The Fry Chronicles - Stephen Fry Level: C1/C2 Whilst no great fan of autobiographies, I am a massive fan of a certain Mr Stephen Fry: National Treasure, Author, Poet, Actor, Comedian par excellence and quite frankly one of my (few) literary heroes . An intellectual giant in his own right whose own heroes are his 3 W’s (Waugh/Wodehouse/Wilde) Given these 3 as his own rather high benchmark, his own prose, his style of writing and use of the English language is quite staggering . Reading anything by this genius, a term I do not use lightly, is a wonderful, funny, enlightening lesson in how beautiful the English language can be when employed correctly. I’m reading, I’m enjoying and I’m learning. "Learning never exhausts the mind" (Da Vinci) by Scott ¿Te has leído el libro? ¿Te animarás a hacerlo? ¡Comparte tu opinión con un comentario! 👇

(Nivel B1) Wonder by Raquel Jaramillo

Wonder , Raquel Jaramillo Palacio – Sin duda, otro de los maravillosos libros de esta generación de literatura para jóvenes adultos. August, el personaje principal, nació con un trastorno genético caracterizado por malformaciones craneofaciales y deberá empezar la escuela secundaria. En ella se enfrentará al rechazo inicial de muchos de sus compañeros, pero gracias al apoyo de su familia y sus verdaderos amigos conseguirá sobreponerse a las dificultades. El vocabulario de este libro es bastante sencillo, aunque podréis observar cambios de registro dentro de la misma novela, ya que está narrado desde la perspectiva de los diferentes personajes que la conforman.
