German news: the adventures of an unusual ‘bookie’

Love your chaos again and the friction of livingby Albert Espinosa (Grijalbo). Sorry to be honest, but August is shit. With heat, without editorial news and without my classes at university, I wander around the house without rhyme or reason, bored, depressed, feeling very bad. My teenage son noticed this, and said that “they gave me a little work at elDiario,” suggesting that I also be a reviewer on TikTok. I responded cheerfully, and he opened a channel for me, warning me that the books on that social network should be more “established,” and that it would be better if he chose the ones that were recommended by him. It started with this novel by Albert Espinosa, and I broke the ice with my young followers to joke about whether the title was more appropriate for a self-help book, or one of those summer songs like the one with I want to dance. This made those watching my video feel bad, and they started messing with me (what a mess bomber“; “Albert is a very legal guy”), and so I removed my adventure as a bookie that the success started badly.

Keep 13: The Tommen Boys 2of Chloe Walsh (trans. by Lorena Castell García; Montena). For the second book, I told my son I wanted to play it safe, and he gave me this one because he read on the publisher’s website that it was “the sports romance that dazzled TikTok.” When I got in to stream the video live, I realized I hadn’t read it! like: “the keep referred to in the title must be on the number 13; Do not confuse it with the number of Tommenwhich would become fair of“). In the end I continued like this for about ten minutes, until I realized that there was no one left after the broadcast in my virtual room.

An influencer died in Parisby Blue Jeans (Planet). This one bothers me, see, because I read it – the novel is not bad; It’s a kind of satire of the world of fashion and such – and I prepared a piece of PowerPoint presentation that I showed in the video to please my fans. How did I do this time? Throughout the video I was saying that the title of the novel blue jeans (In all this I felt very clever for being able to translate “Blue Jeans” from English) and that it was written by influence ―I had looked up on Wikipedia what it was!― who died in Paris recently. Anyway, in the end this video was a success, as it was filled with comments from ticket takers who laughed as they called me “sad” and said “I reminded them of their grandparents who already have a bit of a bad head.”

sins 1. King of wrathby Ana Huang (transl. by Marina Gastó Jiménez; Crossbooks). But I’m not that stupid, and even though a lot of my TikTok channel followers thought I really skated with this one, I wasn’t. I knew it was the first volume of a series entitled sins written by Ana Huang (mind you, I don’t know if it sounds like “Juan”) and it was about a billionaire protagonist named Dante Russo, another colleague of Christian Grey. What happened was that, taking advantage of the situation offered by the subject – “sins”, “Dante” – I started talking to them about one of the fundamental books in my life, the divine humor by Alighieri, which I can spend hours crawling through endlessly… Of course, my fans didn’t pay any attention to what I told them about Beatriz, hell and purgatory, but I’m already used to that with my students at the UaCLM, also guilty of the sin of intellectual laziness.

Rehabilitate your mind, regain your lifeby Marian Rojas Estapé (Espasa). I thought, after all these bad experiences, that it would be good to actually recommend a book that I had read, a book that my wife lent me a few weeks ago so that, according to her, I could learn to “stop to be watching so much. screen,” since she considered me “agilipollao” since I started collaborating with this digital newspaper. The book is good, and it deals with the lack of attention that is causing Western society – and it is this probably includes Ciudad Real – because of the distractions around us, especially in the virtual realm.And I was, talking to my followers of all this, although I received notifications about the messages they were writing to me on the conversation and although many people jumped on me banners of advertising, which ironically gave a good account of the background of the book in a very regrettable scene, yes, but completely exemplary.

El Rulas 3: El Rulas and the epic journey around the worldby Animalize21 (Destiny). Last chance: I had to put everything on the table. By that time I already had the understanding that it was not necessary on TikTok to read the recommended books, so when I found out that Destino – more or less – had this book called “El Rulas” to publish, I was finally happy that it was. I had a topic that I could connect with the youth (I understand that they had returned to the quarrelsome thing of Kronen stories that perhaps they should never have been abandoned). I called my friend Josepas, who now owns a bar but whose nickname owes his success to pills – “rulas”, we called them – in the late eighties, when those things didn’t seem so bad. I put on period clothes (slicked hair, bomber jacket, sunglasses bachelor’s degree) and I started explaining to my young followers about the subject of drugs since I was young, showing them different types of rolls through a video, explaining to them what each of them felt and, of course, also that they were consumed by them. could be fatal. Result? My video about this book became very popular, yes, but the next day TikTok blocked my account, and after a week I received a summons by letter sent to my house by the National Police.
