«Goza el día, y no creas nunca que va a haber otro».

Nunca es tarde para descubrir las claves de la felicidad que nos regalaron los clásicos.

El coaching no es invento nuevo. De hecho, buena parte de lo que hoy en día aparece en charlas y libros de autoayuda ya estaba en los poemas, obras teatrales y discursos filosóficos que escribieron griegos y romanos hace dos mil años. Algunas de esas enseñanzas, sin embargo, nos han llegado a medias o en versiones descafeinadas. Y aún tenemos mucho que aprender de ellas.

El poeta y filólogo Juan Antonio González Iglesias nos lleva de la mano a recorrer los textos de autores como Ovidio, Horacio, Marcial o Marco Aurelio. A través de su pensamiento, nos descubre la vigencia de sus ideas para nuestro día a día. Porque regresando a las raíces de nuestra cultura podemos aprender a ser más felices.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

"Enjoy every day as if it were your last."

It's never too late to discover the secrets to happiness contained in the classics.

Life coaching is not a new invention. In fact, much of the advice shared by contemporary self-help books and motivational speakers can be found in Greek and Roman poems, plays and philosophical works dating back two thousand years. The messages we hear today, however, are often watered-down versions of the originals, which still have much to teach us.

Poet and philologist Juan Antonio González Iglesias guides readers on a rediscovery of authors such as Ovid, Horace, Martial and Marcus Aurelius, many of whose ideas have retained their relevance over the millennia. By returning to the roots of our culture, he maintains, we can learn to be happier today.

Fantastic writing and non-stop action
Format: Kindle
This is a promising, fantastic beginning to what will be a 4-book series. Some readers may be content to read only the first 2 books, but I think you'll find that the story is so good that you'll want to keep reading books 3 and 4. Book 1 is about omega Elvana's introduction to the "Starling" brothers and their search for another missing person, Kelly. It's a bit of a rocky start, with deception and betrayal a key element. Hardly an auspicious beginning. Each member has their own path and purpose in the pack. Their interactions and the resulting narrative are so well-written that I found it difficult to put down. There is a cliffhanger that will have you reaching for book 2 as you finish, so make sure you have it on hand.

Fun read
Format: Kindle
I'm not really into mafia books but I love Roxy Collin's other series so I decided to give it a try. It had the same great romance, spice, swoon-worthy characters and exciting plot that are her signature. Arben was my favorite, although it was a bit sudden how quickly he changed from ignoring her to wanting to be pack. There were almost too many twists/layers of lies to keep track of but I'm looking forward to reading the other books. The only thing that detracted from the story for me was the need for a bit more proofreading. It was mentioned that Kelly is a female and male at different points, leading me to think she changed her mind at some point about the character's gender but didn't go back and edit it to align in all places. Like another reviewer pointed out, step siblings are different than half siblings. They are incorrectly referred to as step siblings because they (allegedly) share the same biological dad. There are a few other typos as well but those aren't a big deal.

Stepbrothers, Secrets, and Sizzling Heat
Format: Kindle
Twisted Lies by Roxy Collins is a wild ride through family secrets, amnesia, and a steamy stepbrother romance. When Kelly discovers her life is built on lies, she ends up tangled with three alpha stepbrothers and an assassin who once helped her through a heat. The tension? Off the charts! The heat is real, and the complications are messy in the best way. Full of twists, secrets, and fated mates? You'll be hooked from page one! Love omegaverse drama with a dash of taboo? This one's for you!

Good read
Format: Kindle
The book has some good twists and turns, but truthfully I was so confused on some things. It didn't have a good flow for me personally. Not sure if it's due to typos or using him/her wrongly, but I thought Kelly was both a guy and a girl. Actually I still don't know, and it made me incredibly frustrated. It would refer to Kelley as him or he, and then again in another part of the story as her she and sister. On to the next book, I hope there is some clarity and a smoother flow. This is a slow burn, and I just don't know how much I care for the Alphas yet. Idk if I recommend.

the lies
Format: Kindle
This is amazing fast pace read that is full of plot twists and lies that keep getting bad. This is a story we’re a omega has been lied to by her mother and finds out that someone is slowing dieing. 3 alpha take the omega and feed her more lies so they can use her against her father so they can find their mate Kelly. This is a dark read and ends in a cliffhanger and so good.
