Book Review: Harry Potter and Philosopher's Stone

I saw all the films of Harry Potter many times, but I've never read the books. So, during the quarantine, I took my kindle and I started to read the first book.

Harry Potter is a famous young wizard even if he doesn't know. At eleven years he starts to attend the Hogwarts School for wizards where he knows many pieces of information about his origins. During school he meets his two best friends, Hermione and Ron, and with them, Harry will have a lot of fun and problems.

I loved the books, more than the movie. Watching only the film, I never understood that Harry loves so much quidditch. I also loved the riddle of Professor Piton, that the movie completely removed.

Have you ever read the book? What do you think about both the film and the book? Let me know in the comments.

See you soon

Week Review

Welcome back, Readers!

Last week has gone very quickly. We had two days of very bad weather, with thunderstorms and a lot of rain and wind. Luckily, the weekend was hot and sunny.

On Friday night we met with three other friends for a game to a board game. It was fun and it was so nice to see friends after so much time we've never seen.

I've also seen a beautiful rainbow and a beautiful sunset.

Saturday and Sunday were two tranquil days. We met with friends for role-playing games, I baked a delicious cake, we ate a lot and played with Yeti, our cat.

How was your week? What about the weather? Let me know in the comments!

Have a nice new week!

Loving This Summer

Hello readers! How are you?

Summer is my favorite season. It's hot, it's sunny, it's colorful! I love all those flower, but I love more aromatic plants like basil, tyime, origan and so on.

In summer animals seem to be sweetier. My cat Yeti, for exemple, he loves roll around the terrace, under the sunlight, but when the weather is too hot, Yeti prefers to stay inside, outstretched on the airiest windowsill of the house. My dad sometimes lets free his turtle and she's so sweet.

This summer I discovered also some delicious lemonades in the bar next to the estate agency where I work. My favorite is the lemon, ginger and honey lemonade.

With my boyfriend we didn't go anywhere yet, maybe next month we will go somewhere with friends.

Do you have any programs for this summer? What are you projecting to do? Let me know in the comments.

Have a nice weekend.

Netflix series review: The Alienist

Hello readers! I'm here again with a new review.

I saw "The Alienist" during the quarantine. I found it quite soft, but really interesting.

It tells about a psychologist, one of the first during the last ten years of 1800. He would study better the mind of people and he wants to help children who have some psychological problems. There's also his best friend, that is a very good photographer. The two works secretly to a police murder case to find out who is really guilty. The corpse is found on a small bridge, mutilated. After the first corpse, others are found all around the little Neighborhood. The psychologist and the photographer find a very valid help from the only one woman who's working in the police station.

The atmosphere of the series is quite dark and there are also some good plot twists. I found it a good series to watch during quarantine because it talks about innovation. The psychologist is trying to convince other people that the brain is the most complicated organ of our body and that the methods used until that moment to heal mad people are completely wrong. The female presence in the police station is a very rare case for those years, in fact, her presence isn't well seen from most of the policemen.

A few days ago came out the 2nd series here in Italy, so...I know what I can watch this weekend.

What do you think about the 1st series? Did you like it? Let me know in the comments!

Have a nice day!
