The Smuggler’s Gambit by Sara Whitford
The Smuggler’s Gambit is a historical fiction. This is the first part of series about Adam’s Fletcher adventures. Adam is a seventeen years old boy. He lived all his life in a small city and worked in a tavern with his mother. But once his life has cardinally changed.
The book was written by simple language. It’s easy for me read it. Both this fact and age of hero tells me that audience of this book is teenagers. The story isn’t twisted, but some moments I can’t predict. Pretty interesting, but not enough of drama.
Good book for a people who want just get some rest and light reading.

When Nietzsche wept by Irvin D. Yalom
Recently I've read the novel called When Nietzsche wept by Irvin Yalom. I think that a text will be pretty hard for me and
decided to read Russian version.
The action is in Europe of XIX century, mostly in a Vienna, Austria. Professor Breuer is a significant and respectfull
doctor. He got a strange offer to take care of unknowing phylosophist Nietzsche. It should be a soul treatment, but looks
like health care, because Nietzsche rejects any penetrations in his privacy. Breuer starts working on that, using
psyhoanalisis(a prototype, because a psyhoanalisis was founded later). But Nietzsche hadn't wishes to open his soul to
anybody else. Breuer spent more time in discussing with Nietzsche and slightly became a his patient. Breuer was suffering
from midlife crisis with all related problems like a cold relationships with his wife, disappoitment about becoming
oldness, feeling that he has waste his life doing things that he really don't want to do, etc. Nietzsche helps Breuer to
find origin of his problems to eliminate them.
Despite the novel is a fiction, it contains many references for real occurances and personalities. Yalom greatly connected
all that things in the entire story. I got a great pleasure to read this book.

Prague
I and my wife spent New year's holidays in Prague. For a long time, I dream about visit to this beautiful place. My main
purpouse was beer. I tried to degustate as much as possible sorts of local beer. During the migration between pubs, we can
take a look at main sights :D. The weather tried to help us spend more time inside restaurans. Sometimes, temperature rich
about minus 10 degrees Celsium. Pretty cold for us. Old city center is very large. This is plus. The main minus is a huge
mass of tourists. About beer? Better to write another note.

Chuck Palahniuk
Acquintance with bibliography of Chuck Palahniuk - the remarkable point in my life. It's hard to believe, but fact - my first book was not Fight Club. By the years, I already forgot, where I got a copy of Choke. But what I remember clearly - it's feeling both shock and excitement. Palahniuk literature tricks like a not linear narrative, mixing with shock content and odd personalities around the books, charmed me. I read 1 novel about each 2 days, and can not stop (Due to I read them in my native Russian).I tried to read related writers later, but it's not so what I want.

Robert Bloch – Psycho review
Recently, I’ve been read the novel Psycho by Robert Bloch. This story about young girl Marion, who decide to start a new life with her boyfriend, full of happiness, but faced with cute looking guy Norman – the manager of motel Bates. What is the strange things are happening here?
The book was written using a quite simple style. It’s no so long. I need a one day for complete it. According reviews, the book surrounded you with a fear, but not in my case. I think, because my reading skill is not allow me feel a full describing dreadfull.
