Book Review of Things We Lost in the Fire by Mariana Enriquez

[@HUMANNICO]

Great Review!! she's my favorite author currently. I REALLY recommend you read "Our Share of Night", it's her first novel and it BLEW MY MIND, I have read it like 4 times already. Cheers!!!

[@LifeLessonsFromBooks]

It is his first novel published in English. She has at least two other older ones ("Bajar es lo peor" and "Este es el mar").

Just read Our Share of Night....my God. So now I am looking for everything she has written.

[@LifeLessonsFromBooks]

I must read more of her work…. Thank you for watching and sharing what you’re reading.

Exactly, It's very good book, I almost lost my reading habit due to tough medical studies then few days ago I just picked it up and bomb, quite interesting at the same time it is giving me chills when I read about brutality 😳

[@LifeLessonsFromBooks]

Exactly! I’m so glad to have discovered this author and read these short stories. They are unlike anything I’ve read before. Thank you for listening and watching and all the best with your medical studies.

would you say that the short story of the same title, represents the uncanny as depicted by sigmund freud?

[@LifeLessonsFromBooks]

Thanks for this comment. You sent me on a rabbit warren journey as I wasn't aware of this work and the more I read - the more I realised that yes, it's exactly what was represented. Maybe that's why the book was so eerie to read! Thank you for broadening my knowledge with this work. Happy reading!

Have you read Jawbone by Monica Ojeda?

[@LifeLessonsFromBooks]

No I haven't read this book and just looked this author up. I've marked it down as a book - and an author to check out in 2024. Thank you for this recommendation, always greatly appreciated to find more authors from different countries. Thank YOU!

[@lagooniiiiiiiii]

@@LifeLessonsFromBooks I hope you enjoy; it is in a similar vein to Enriquez’s work! I’m falling in love with translated Spanish horror!

[@LifeLessonsFromBooks]

Thank you for the recommendation. I love reading books from non-Anglo authors. If you know of any others, please let me know so that I can look them up. As you can understand our bookstores here in Australia stock limited ranges.
