Here are 5 of my favorite books and a novel Im looking forward to reading soon!
Many viewers have asked me to make a video about my all-time favorite books. I find it hard to talk about ALL my favorite books because, thankfully, the list is always growing.
So, instead, I decided to make a video of 5 of my favorite books only. To narrow things down, I only discuss books by Spanish-language authors. But dont worry, they are all available in English translation and, indeed, in many other languages.
Some of my favorite authors include Garcรญa Mรกrquez, Borges, and Julio Cortรกzar.
Watch the video to find out what books are among my favorites and let me know which ones are yours!
