THROUGH THE STORM by Lynne Spears



Today I've finished reading Through the Storm, the book Britney's mum wrote in 2008. I've always wanted to read it to see their life from her point of view, because as you all know the tabloids really distort reality.

As I read through the book I felt very sorry for waht happend to Britney. It seems she was sorrounded by ver harmful people as Sam Lutfi for example. He was the reason why Britney was hospitalized. He was such a bad influence for her and she didn't even saw it.




Too many people say that Lynne pushed Brit into the fame and they call her stage mom. That's so not true. At the beginning Britney was a very happy girl who worked in waht she loved: singing. However, papparazzi are like vultures and only looked for bad things to tell. And thw worst thing of all that is that we believe what they tell us.



She talk about Britney and Jamie Lynn's pregnancies as well as about his older son.







If you relly want to know the truth about the Spears family you should read this book

TEMPUS FUGIT: THE SOUL'S THIEF

A few days ago a started reading again the new Javier Ruescas' book: Tempus Fugit, the soul's thief. He gave it to me the day of our graduation from college, as a present for translating him Tempus Fugit's press kit.

I started reading the book right away. however, a lot of thing happened in June and I couldn't continue reading. I brought the book with me to Ireland, thinking that the job as a course leader would be easy and I would have time to read. It was not that easy, though.

During an excursion to Glendalough, I hurt my left foot big toe and the doctor told me to walk as less as possible. One day, we went to Dublin so the kids could go shopping. As I couldn't walk properly I stayed in a cafeteria next to the Spire. I ordered a Red Tea and a Lactose free Muffin (I'm lactose intolerant :S )

We were supposed to be in Dublin for 4 hours, and I read the whole book just in 3 hours!!!!1 Once you start reading the book you will realize what I'm talking about.

It's such a catching book that you can't stop reading. A good example is one of my students in Ireland. We had gathered to watch an horror film. As he doesn't like horror films I told him to stay in my room and red Tempus Fugit. When the movie finish it was so difficult to get him out of my room taht I had to let him the book to read it at his room. HHe read almost the whole book!!!!!!! Unbelievable.

I do not have much time now to write a synopsys of the book but I will as soon as I'm in Madrid. Keep in touch to read the update next week
