I read this book during grad school in a Latin America Modernization class - even though it's been a while I remember it being an incredible sci-fi book that provided the dirty war as an allegory to the story. For all those sci-fi geeks - read this book! ]]> <![CDATA[Katherine added 'Left to Tell']]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/80193823 Left to Tell (Paperback) by Immaculee Ilibagiza

bookshelves: ynpn-book-club-reads
It was my first Gladwell book and it was great to read a book that was so easy to read. It has so many insightful patterns that one usually doesn't think about when someone successful emerges and his theory does seem to make sense. It just felt a little too perfect sometimes and it would've been nice if he had acknowledged that more (for example - show some exceptions to the rule perhaps?).

Anyway, it is definitely a fast read and for those people who like to look at patterns and trends, this is a book for you. ]]> <![CDATA[Katherine added 'The Shadow of the Wind']]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/80146088 The Shadow of the Wind (Paperback) by Carlos Ruiz Zafón
