What I'm reading + NOTD pt. 80


So here we are, on the edge of eternity. Ken Follett's extraordinary historical epic, the Century Trilogy, reaches its sweeping, passionate conclusion. In Fall of Giants and Winter of the World, Ken Follett followed the fortunes of five international families—American, German, Russian, English, and Welsh—as they made their way through the twentieth century. Now in the Edge of Eternity, they come to one of the most tumultuous eras of all: the 1960s through the 1980s, from civil rights, assassinations, mass political movements, and Vietnam to the Berlin Wall, the Cuban Missile Crisis, presidential impeachment, revolution—and rock and roll. 

In Slovenian translation is the third part of Century trilogy divided into two books, so it took me a while to read them. Now that I've read the whole trilogy I can choose a favourite among them. I'd choose the first one, Fall of Giants. The others aren't bad is just that in the third part is such a wide time span and everything goes by so quickly. And there is also the thing that I mention in my post of the second part, Winter of the World. I know that in every book there is a young generation that is narrating the story, but it would be nice if we could have heard some of our old protagonist narrating the story. And there is also another thing that is bugging me, what happened to Eric, in the third book he isn't mentioned at all. He didn't have a big part anyways, but it would be nice to hear what happened to him, or he is mentioned, and I somehow missed it? Somebody knows what's the story with Eric?


The books are a trilogy, so I thought it would be nice to have a connection also with nail polishes. Here it is the nail polish from Essence's LE Vampire's Love, just like in previous books. This one is maybe the ugliest, but it's also the most special colour. The name is The dawn is broken and it's a light grey with silver glitter and I think that it looks prettier in the bottle that on the nails.


Have a great day!
