“Olvidado Rey Gudú” by Spanish writer Ana María Matute. It translates as “Forgotten King Gudu” and it’s the author’s most ambitious book. It’s a family saga set in a fantasy location where magic starts becoming more and more important, characters love and hate and live, and the root of everything is at childhood. Think One Hundred Years of Solitude meets European fairy tales.

The Slow Regard of Silent Things.

I’m not a fan of that specific series, but I enjoy some YA every once in a while. I think the “Young adult” meaning should be changed to “Young AND adult”. A good book for teenagers can also be enjoyed by adults, obviously.
