How to Be the Love You Seek by Dr Nicole LePera
"This book was something different than what I was hoping for.

Basically it's real scientific facts and psychology used as a trojan horse to make pseudoscience sound good and look like real facts.

The reality is: HeartMath Institute and their heart cohe" Read more of this review »

Mouthful of Birds by Samanta Schweblin
"While I liked the taut, evocative writing and the gorgeous cover, the stories themselves often felt empty to me. These stories are absurd and sometimes horrific, but horror and absurdity alone are not enough for me. There are some really great storie" Read more of this review »

“Acomodando todas las cosas en su debido compartimiento, descubrí que todavía la amaba, quizás ese día más que nunca; quizás nunca había dejado de hacerlo, quizás siempre la amaría. Y esa era precisamente la fuerza que potenciaba mi odio: amarla mal para odiarla mejor, amarla retorcidamente para entregarle un odio más puro.”
Ahtziri Lagarde, Las Cenizas de Ícaro

“El fuego tiene una forma maquiavélica de ser: resplandeciente y fascinante a la lejanía, cálido en la cercanía y tímido al primer contacto.
Como una serpiente, mide escrupulosamente y después devora. Envuelve a su víctima en una asfixiante incandescencia para estrangularla, derrite cada partícula con su garganta de lava para verla danzar en su estado más vehemente y finalmente, cuando la ha reducido a nada, la abandona. La deja ahí consumida y demente, suplicando por una de sus caricias.”
Ahtziri Lagarde, Las Cenizas de Ícaro

“Desilusionar a una persona es como matarte a ti mismo en su interior.”
Ahtziri Lagarde, Las Cenizas de Ícaro

“I’ve never been certain whether the moral of the Icarus story should only be, as is generally accepted, ‘don’t try to fly too high,’ or whether it might also be thought of as ‘forget the wax and feathers, and do a better job on the wings.”
Stanley Kubrick

“Ideas are like fish. If you want to catch little fish, you can stay in the shallow water. But if you want to catch the big fish, you’ve got to go deeper. Down deep, the fish are more powerful and more pure.They’re huge and abstract. And they’re very beautiful.”
David Lynch, Catching the Big Fish: Meditation, Consciousness, and Creativity

“La violencia es ese monstruo que habita en el cuerpo de almas olvidadas, encerrando sus gritos de auxilio en el corazón de un verdugo. Almas tan desesperadas que al mínimo estímulo, despiertan para pedir ayuda a la misma bestia que las esclaviza. Una bestia convencida de que su única salvación es nunca abrir la celda que las aprisiona.”
Ahtziri Lagarde, Las Cenizas de Ícaro

“De noche, el mundo lucía feliz, ligero, ajeno a los problemas de la vida diaria; en la obscuridad el caos es el orden.”
Ahtziri Lagarde, Las Cenizas de Ícaro

“De todas las cosas aborrecibles de las que es capaz el ser humano para salvarse el pellejo, para mí la peor de todas es crear una familia. Al final de cuentas el homicidio es el fin, pero el nacimiento es sólo el principio; en la gran mayoría de casos, de una larga penitencia por un pecado jamás cometido.”
Ahtziri Lagarde, Las Cenizas de Ícaro
