“‘East of Eden’ by John Steinbeck. This is one of my favourite books. I cried a lot the first time I read it...For me crying at a book or movie is one of the best feelings ever, that means that it reached to my heart and that it will stay there forever.”

“‘One Hundred Years of Solitude’ by Gabriel García Márquez. I began reading it one week ago.”

“I'm reading a book titled ‘Las calculadoras de estrellas’ (that can be translated as ‘Stars calculators’) by Miguel Ángel Delgado. It talks about the importance of women in science, especially astronomy.”
