Buongiorno a tutti lettori, buon fine settimana! Ho deciso che questi saranno gli ultimi giorni prima di dedicarmi sul serio alle cose importanti, quindi tesi e ultimo esame. Comunque come ogni sabato ecco che vi presento la mia rubrica preferita!
La settimana scorsa nessuno di voi ha commentato, quindi reputo invariata la mia classifica. Mi spiace molto che questa rubrica non sia molto seguita ma io adoro scoprire nuove cover e storie insieme a voi, quindi ecco la nuova classifica della settimana.
Al primo posto, non poteva che posizionarsi Restore me di Tahereh Mafi, le copertine dei suoi libri sono tutte bellissime ma questa con l'effetto ghiaccio mi fa impazzire.
Sono curiosa di sapere cosa inventeranno per i prossimi due libri di questa nuova trilogia!
Juliette Ferrars thought she'd won. She took over Sector 45, was named the new Supreme Commander, and now has Warner by her side. But she's still the girl with the ability to kill with a single touch—and now she's got the whole world in the palm of her hand. When tragedy hits, who will she become? Will she be able to control the power she wields and use it for good?
Al secondo posto, un retelling della Sirenetta in uscita in lingua, The surface breaks.
Adoro i lunghi capelli rossi che contengono tutti gli elementi della favola così come la conosciamo: lo specchio, le perle, il coltello e i tentacoli di Ursula, la strega del Mare.
Deep beneath the sea, off the cold Irish coast, Gaia is a young mermaid who dreams of freedom from her controlling father. On her first swim to the surface, she is drawn towards a human boy. She longs to join his carefree world, but how much will she have to sacrifice? What will it take for the little mermaid to find her voice? Hans Christian Andersen's original fairy tale is reimagined through a searing feminist lens, with the stunning, scalpel-sharp writing and world building that has won Louise her legions of devoted fans. A book with the darkest of undercurrents, full of rage and rallying cries: storytelling at its most spellbinding.
Al terzo posto, A thousand nights, un retelling delle Mille e una notte, che sto leggendo proprio in questi giorni.
Il palazzo ricorda Agrabah da Aladdin, adoro il font e i colori e penso che sia una copertina perfetta per questa storia.
Lo-Melkhiin killed three hundred girls before he came to her village, looking for a wife. When she sees the dust cloud on the horizon, she knows he has arrived. She knows he will want the loveliest girl: her sister. She vows she will not let her be next.
And so she is taken in her sister’s place, and she believes death will soon follow. Lo-Melkhiin’s court is a dangerous palace filled with pretty things: intricate statues with wretched eyes, exquisite threads to weave the most beautiful garments. She sees everything as if for the last time. But the first sun rises and sets, and she is not dead. Night after night, Lo-Melkhiin comes to her and listens to the stories she tells, and day after day she is awoken by the sunrise. Exploring the palace, she begins to unlock years of fear that have tormented and silenced a kingdom. Lo-Melkhiin was not always a cruel ruler. Something went wrong.
Far away, in their village, her sister is mourning. Through her pain, she calls upon the desert winds, conjuring a subtle unseen magic, and something besides death stirs the air.
Back at the palace, the words she speaks to Lo-Melkhiin every night are given a strange life of their own. Little things, at first: a dress from home, a vision of her sister. With each tale she spins, her power grows. Soon she dreams of bigger, more terrible magic: power enough to save a king, if she can put an end to the rule of a monster.

Per oggi è tutto, spero che questa nuova classifica vi piaccia.
Vi abbraccio, Cris!
Non riesco a scegliere tra Restore me e The surface breaks...troppo belle!!
RispondiEliminaA thousand nights la lascio al terzo posto.
Questa settimana la scelta è davvero difficile; sono tutte bellissime! Probabilmente quella che mi piace di più però è quella di The surface breaks, ma tra le altre due proprio non saprei scegliere!
