Review: Lux

Lux Lux by Courtney Cole
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

A New Design

If you ask for my honest opinion I’d tell you that reading this was like falling through the rabbit’s hole…was like reading about Alice and realizing that her journey to Wonderland was actually NOT a dream or a fantasy…but the reality and that famous quote of We’re all mad, aren’t we? in this case is actually right… and the funny thing? You were dragged along with her through the falling.



Calla’s been wandering through this world and another, that she wasn’t quite sure to call it a reality or a dream, and the only constants in any of them were her loved ones, loved ones…that she wasn’t suppose to love or let go.

When you don’t know what’s real and what’s not, is quite easy to let yourself been consumed by the darkness…only to realize that there are worse things that losing your sanity.

A New Design

So this story will take you to a path where you’ll end up doubting everything and anyting



Untill the author shows us the truth behind everything

A New Design

A twist that comes from NOWHERE

A New Design

And a pretty shocking option at the end …

A New Design

That will leave you like…

I haven't touched this book by 2 days 'cause It demanded my while attention and frankly it drove me insane and exhausted...mentally exhausted.

Bot sure what I've just read...i think I can tel without place to doubt that this is the crazier, twisted book I've read so far in my whole life. It was like getting into a mental hospital , you as a reader were also going insane!

The explanation...i still don't get it...I'm catholic ok? But those prophecies and all that jazz ...noy even sure about them...no problem with religion buy just...Where the f*ck did those come from...i mean if the explanation would have been something else ...don't know magic, Greek myths or some sort if thing idk., maybe but THAT! you're telling me to believe and accept that all their blood was pure since a lot of years B.C seriously? This has made me go deja vu with a lot of movies...the others, shutter island, Dracula 2000?...

Seriously my eyes were throwing lasers to the phone while reading because I couldn't be distracted not even a tiny bit!

The edition and the writing were great, the Latin ? Awesome! But have to re read almost idk...5to6 chapters complete exactly as they were in the 1st and second book?!!! That just go as big fat NO!!!!!

still digesting this book where the end was the beginning and the beginning was the end...just know that was entertained and throw my mind to a vacuum and ...i liked it. The explanation ? Not so much ! But the journey itself ? AWESOME!

full review to come !
P.s. Have to read something more of this author.

Review: Nocte

Nocte Nocte by Courtney Cole
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This was like I've been put under a constant flow of subliminal messages and kind of going into Dante's Comedia or something , because...

Besides it was also daring, I mean:

Then the plot shows me something plaussible,, something that I take as the background in order to develop a love story where someone can say things like:


so no wonder I go like...

But of course they can not be together 'cause she is a really bad situation and he goes like her warrrior in bright armor, so more of

But that doesn't stop her to feel like:




so bad situation, right?

With it comes reality and then, and I go in the next sequence:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm having deja vu of that Nicole Kidman movie The others and I'm pretty sure told me that something similar happened in that Anime Captain Tsubasa or something like that . HUH! yeah I know...a bit crazy

This one was crazier than the first one and it made spill a tiny tear at the end...it was pretty good, like trying to go in Sherlock mode to figure out what's happening. XD

Full rev to come....

And in Vitale's manners...nons.... not yet ! I'm giving it the benefit of the doubt for the third book...there might actually be light at the end of the path....
