We know that this spring is not just any spring. Because it is being a confined spring. If we live alone, surely we are dedicating more time than usual to the hobbies that we had half parked … And if we share a flat, we may appreciate both the family time and being able to spend some time cultivating our personal space.

In this context and without it being our purpose to incite disputes … we must ask you something: what do you prefer in your house, reading the book or waiting for the movie to come out? 📖⚡🍿

It will not be us who will unravel a mystery that has been accompanying Humanity since the night of time but, in favor of calm and being at home with a lot of free time … why don't we enjoy both? That is why in this post we bring you a list of proposals for you to enjoy fiction, either on paper or on the move.

So if you get tired of the screens that we consult so much these days, you can take refuge in the wonderful solitude of a book. And if it gets dark and the light stops accompanying us, we can share the story with our roommates and devour together the new episode of that series that has us so hooked. Are you coming with us?


What of Dolores Redondo it is passion. Passion for writing, which overflows the author. And readers' passion for everything that comes from the author's mind. If you still do not know the Baztan Trilogy, take advantage of the days of confinement to immerse yourself in one of the most addictive readings of the moment and that has also been transferred to the screen so that you have the complete experience.

In fact, it has recently been released Legacy in the bones, the second installment of the trilogy, on Netflix … and it has been one of the biggest hits on the platform! It is also available on Movistar +, Vodafone TV, RakutenTV and Filmin.

And as for the story? It all begins in the valleys of Navarre that Redondo presents to us in the first novel: The invisible guardian. On the banks of the Baztan River, the naked body of a teenage girl appears in circumstances that put him in connection with a murder that occurred in the surroundings some time ago. The inspector of the homicide section, Amaia Salazar, will be in charge of directing an investigation that will take her back to Elizondo, a small town where she is from and from which she has tried to flee all her life.

Will you be able to find out who the killer is before turning the page?


These are two of the series of the moment, Netflix originals … that everyone talks about regardless of whether they are your flatmates, the group chat of those at work or your cousin from Valencia in a video call asking you what you are dealing with these days. They will recommend them to you, yes or yes.

In Elite We will live with its protagonists the intrigues, love stories and envies that take place in the Las Encinas institute, the most privileged training center in the entire State. And the scene of a crime that Melena, Janine, Mario, Paula and Gorka will have to solve. If after watching the series you want more, don't suffer because Editorial Planeta brings us Elite. At the back of the class: The first official novel in the series and the place to discover the intrigues and quarrels that you will never see on screen. And if you still want to know more about Las Encinas, take note: Elite. Pending subject. Soon, an essential book for fans of the series will arrive in bookstores, a volume in which uniforms and personal conflicts intermingle with a masked criminal who will spread panic among our protagonists. All just one year after the events that star in the Elite series. How will this year have been for Janine, Gorka or Melenas? And what does this course hold for you?

The enigmas continue with another of the phenomena of the moment: The paper house.

Sergio Marquina, better known as the Professor, spent a part of his childhood and adolescence in the San Juan de Dios hospital in San Sebastián, where he became friends with Jero Lamarca. In Jero's worst days, Sergio, who had a privileged mind back then, devised deduction mind games to keep his friend awake. On the days when Sergio's eyes tinted and he even forgot to speak, Jero brought him back, teaching him how to make paper bow ties.

Fate wanted them to have to part without just being able to say goodbye, but the ties that the two children wove are indestructible.

It has been a while since the robbery that took place at the National Mint and Stamps. Today, while Jero was collecting the few things that still remain in the motorcycle workshop where he is forced to close, he receives a package without a return address. Inside, an unsigned letter, a notebook, a box with a padlock, a photo of a Dalí mask and a red paper bow tie. Jero has no doubts. Out there, Sergio Marquina has left a part of the loot hidden, a new opportunity. You just have to unravel the clues to find it. And if you also want to join the mental game that has thousands of followers trapped on Netflix, don't miss the proposal made by Lunwerg: The paper house. Escape Book. Teacher's journal. Hours and hours of entertainment await you in the official escape book of the most successful Spanish series of the moment!


In these days of series you have surely found on Netflix with the television miniseries that stars Octavia Spencer: Self Made, or "A woman made to herself". Things have been said about her like: "We must applaud how from the beginning it deals with complicated and painful issues related to racial prejudice" (Daniel D’Addario, in Variety).

Perhaps the most interesting thing is that it tells us the true story of its protagonist, as reflected in this beautiful youth book Destino: Madam C. J. Walker creates a company.

Sarah is the first person in her family who was not born a slave. But being free doesn't mean Sarah shouldn't be working. Cook, clean, pick cotton, wash clothes and take care of children. And when she has to work, Sarah pulls her hair back. One day, it starts to fall! Instead of giving up, Sarah starts testing and mixing products and ends up inventing something better than any shampoo or oil she has tried … Thanks to this miracle product, she decides to start her own company.

In the series we see how the protagonist's ambitions advance until she builds her own empire of beauty products and becomes the first self-made millionaire. Highly recommended. 👌🏻


Violet and Finch is the original Netflix story about two very particular souls: Violet is broken. Finch is broken. Can two broken halves be rebuilt?

This is the story of a girl who learns to live from a boy who intends to die, from two young people who meet and stop counting the days … to start living them. On the screen we will see the faces of Elle Fanning and Justice Smith embarking on a cathartic journey through the landscapes of Indiana.

And if after letting yourself be carried away by these young people you feel like digging deeper into their relationship, do not miss the official book of the film that they bring us from youth: Violet and Finchby Jennifer Niven. It will make you believe in the power of love and the possibility of resurrection even for the most broken souls.


And we leave the field of emotions to enter a hard, violent story, the case of Jimmy Hoffa that we can enjoy on Netflix with a trio of aces at the helm: Martin Scorsese. Robert De Niro, Al Pacino. Haven't seen the movie yet the Irish? Well, this confinement does not pass without you having done it because it is a 10.

But we cannot fail to recommend that you first read the book from which it is inspired: The Irish. Jimmy Hoffa. Case closed (You have it in Criticism, with the good work of Charles Brandt). What is its history?

Better known as "the Irishman," Frank Sheeran was a hitman responsible for more than 25 murders, including that of Jimmy Hoffa, the powerful boss of the truckers union who used his millionaire pension fund to do business with the Mafia and who disappeared in 1975. The FBI failed to resolve the case until Sheeran himself, already on his deathbed, pleaded guilty.

The author of this book, Charles Brandt, spent five years following Sheeran. This is the fruit of the hundreds of hours of recording of their conversations and the investigation that was carried out, which ended up linking the hired killer and Hoffa with none other than the Kennedy family. If you fancy a story that does not leave you or get up from the sofa, you cannot miss this great book.


And to soften the atmosphere a bit, we now go with nobler sentiments such as those exuded by Jenny Han's literature, an international phenomenon that has already caught thousands of readers. And there is no lack of reasons.

In the trilogy that opened with To all the boys I fell in love with We discovered Lara Jean, a girl who is enjoying the best year of her life: she is going to graduate, she is completely in love with her boyfriend Peter, her father is about to remarry and Margot will return home in summer just in time to attend to the wedding.

But on the horizon changes are coming … And while Lara Jean has fun helping in the preparations for the wedding, she can't help but think that she will have to make decisions very soon. You have to choose a university, and that can turn your relationship with Peter upside down …

We will discover Lara Jean's next steps in the equally delicious books P.S. I still love you and Forever, Lara Jean. On Netflix we can already enjoy the films that correspond to the first and the second part of the Jenny Han trilogy, which have become a phenomenon for the platform. So we invite you to join the emotional journey of Lara Jean.


And we couldn't forget the classics, of course. We come to the end of this post citing jewelry like The Miserables, both in Tom Hooper's magnificent film adaptation (2012) With that wonderful shot-sequence of Anne Hathaway! as in the version to enjoy in series that the BBC gives us and that these days we are being able to see on Movistar +, Rakuten TV and Prime Video. Of course, if you are faithful to the book do not miss the beautiful edition that they offer us in Austral. It will be one of those titles that you never tire of seeing in your bookstore how beautiful they are. 🤩

Continuing with the stories of the period, it goes without saying that for nothing in the world we will lose ourselves to Jane Eyre and Mr. Rochester. If you have already read the magnificent book that Charlotte Brontë wrote, what are you waiting for to devour the series? (awaits you on Prime Video, Filmin, Fubo TV). And if you still want more of this plot, in 2011 Cary Joji Fukunaga paid him a very special tribute adapted to the big screen. Has anyone said popcorn?

With the following proposal, yes, better put the popcorn aside because they will fly out of a scare. Dracula. A title undoubtedly linked to that of its creator Bram Stoker. If you have not yet put your teeth into this classic of classics, Austral's companions have made a very careful version that will make you move smoothly towards Transylvania. If you prefer the more visual experience, we highly recommend the series (available on Netflix, RakutenTV, Microsoft Store and Atresplayer) because it will create a very very special atmosphere in your home. So much so that you won't even want to leave it. 😎


With all these proposals we hope that yours is a confinement of a movie! Or serial! Without forgetting that we owe all this to our beloved books, the wonderful seed many times of those phenomena that are now part of popular culture. And if you are left wanting to savor more readings, Our selection of literature and cinema awaits you!
