"I was ravenous to get my hands on my copy as soon as it was delivered this morning, but was quickly disappointed. But when I took a close look at my dust jacket, I was extremely upset to find that the gold foil lettering for "Harry Potter" had been rubbed away and destroyed completely in some places leaving ugly, black matte in its place-- pock marking the otherwise handsome gold lettering. Needless to say I'm in awe how Bloomsbury has managed to put together such an incredible project, with JK Rowling's remarkable literature and Jim Kay's otherworldly illustrations-- and allowed it to be put together in a low quality binding! Not all alone in a box... Update (October 9th): I have finally received my new book and it was in much, much better condition. The cover and spine were tight, intact and falling apart from the binding like my original copy."

"The Baron, head of House Harkonnen, plots to rid Arrakis of the Atreides anyway he can and eventually sends the young heir to the throne (Paul) into the hostile desert sands. He is the product of a plan by the Bene Gesserits, a class of humans highly trained in the psychic arts, to breed one of their own that can see into depths of the future and mind far better than any of their typically female members can."
"I enjoy the occasional sci-fi but choose them carefully, this one is clearly a classic for a reason."
"In kindle format, the book was easily accessed, bookmarked, annotated and referenced. While I love the tactile nature of opening a book and turning pages, this format is both eminently readable and easily referenced, making it in fact superior to the paper format."
"Herbert has created a deeply compelling, unique universe with complex and memorable characters."
"The author's son has written a lot more Dune novels, but I'm not going to read those."
"When I ordered this particular edition (black cover with the vertical rectangle of the 'dunes'), I fretted about the quality of the book. The words do not go into the middle of the inner spine; there is a nice margin all the way around the text. I don't envision the spine cracking because of the nice give when the pages are opened for reading. It doesn't make that crinkly sound like a lot of paperbacks these days."
"Without Dune, there is no Star Wars, no Alien, no Battlestar Galactica, no Mass Effect etc."
Adrián Cameron y Gabriela Rivera se conocen en medio de condiciones adversas, al compartir un suceso traumático que derrumba la certeza y la confianza sobre las que cada uno había fundado su vida y los obliga a enfrentar una nueva realidad que los lleva a apoyarse el uno en el otro para sobrellevar el desengaño, a la vez que nace entre ellos una intensa atracción.

Best Romance in Spanish
Isabel Allende parte de la célebre cita de Albert Camus -«en medio del invierno aprendí por fin que había en mí un verano invencible»- para urdir una trama que presenta la geografía humana de unos personajes propios de la América de hoy que se hallan «en el más profundo invierno de sus vidas»: una chilena, una joven guatemalteca ilegal y un maduro norteamericano. Más allá del invierno es una de las historias más personales de Isabel Allende: una obra absolutamente actual que aborda la realidad de la emigración y la identidad de la América de hoy a través de unos personajes que encuentran la esperanza en el amor y en las segundas oportunidades. «Los amantes del best seller están de enhorabuena: ha vuelto Isabel Allende con una novela de las suyas, repleta de emoción y amor.» El Cultural. «Como siempre, me ha gustado mucho leer a Isabel Allende, reconocer su estilo sencillo, cercano, con ese toque de humor, siempre aprovechando la realidad que la rodea para construir un nuevo libro con el que hacernos disfrutar.». Blog Bitácoras de mis lecturas. En 2010, fue galardonada con el Premio Nacional de Literatura de Chile, y en 2012, con el Premio Hans Christian Andersen de Literatura por su trilogía El Águila y el Jaguar.

"Me encanto bien escrita romántica y lista para leer las siguientes libros recomiendo que lean los libros mire la película por eso me interesó leer los libros."
"Bastante mediocre la forma en la que escribe, es una escritora sin formación literaria, una copia de Crepusculo de principio a fin, no hay diferencia alguna, es mas la escritora confienza que se baso en la parte de la luna de miel para recabar la "idea" del millon."
"El libro al principio me estaba aburriendo y solo cuando llegue a la parte donde Ana entrevista a Christian fue que empeso a gustarme y obvio termine leyendolo todo.No me gusto que fuera traducido al espanol de Espana,preferiria mas espanol latino americano y si ay una palabra que odie mas en este libro fue 'UAU" siempre que la miraba lo unico que me venia a la mente era "OH GOOD KILL ME NOW" y para mi desgracia se repite en los 3 libros constantemente so imaginen.Si en el primer libro les parecio que habia mucho sexo esperen a leer el segundo,ay tanto pero tanto sexo que les juro ya me aburria a tal punto que deseaba que apareciera una trama mas complicada,una tragedia pero bueno el sexo es parte del libro ya que Christian es un hombre con un trastorno sexual muy complicado debido a su ninez tan espantosa,era abusado por su madre,su padrastro en fin una serie de cosas que conllevan a un trauma de por vida tanto asi que le horroriza le toquen el pecho.La relacion sadomasoquista que el le propone a ella cambia (para enterarse leanlo). Por ahi estube leyendo algunos comentarios un poco absurdos a mi entender,decian que si el hombre tiene dninero esta autorizado a tirarse y golpear a una mujer y que de esto se trata el libro,obviamente esa persona no lo a leido en absoluto.Vamos seamos realistas a que mujer no le gusta un hombre que la proteja,que la cele,que la desee,que la ame?"
"Y eso que esta traducido en un espanol es un poco de entender porque mi espanol es de puerto rico y usan palabras que nosotros no usamo suerte que mi amiga es sur americana y si sabres los sinificado de ella y me lo explica pero el librome gusto mucho y entendi algunas partes que apararentamente no lo visualize en ingles y eso que lie los libros 4 veces todos el ultimo antes de ver la pelicula."

"La novela es interesante, el estilo es el clásico de Dan Brown y es ahí donde parecería un guión repetido, la premisa mantiene la expectación, sin embargo es fácil encontrar las analogías a otros relatos del mismo autor ( que puede hacer hasta cierto punto previsible el relato) y es difícil trazar la línea entre algo original y una receta que le ha dado éxito."
"Muy bueno el libro, como siempre Dan Brown mantiene un ritmo que se muestra a veces misterioso y a veces frenético y caótico y que siempre te deja con ganas de más al terminar cada capítulo,por lo que indefectiblemente uno lo sigue leyendo."
"Dan Brown hace nuevamente un gran trabajo lleno de misterio y simbología que atrapa irremediablemente al lector."
"As any other book by Dan Brown, keeps you reading until the end."
"Es un libro muy entretenido de leer, mezcla realidades con fantasias muy curiosas."
"Maybe I expected more... but the story is not as thrilling as other Dan Brown's books."
"Muy buena novela."
