Disgrace - Part 5 (final)

First book of 2018 is done! Disgrace was a book easy to read, and I will write what had happened.


David spent about 3 months in Lucy's farm. After what did happened, he goes back to his house. On the way to his home, David goes pay a visit to the student's family. I will not prolong myself here, but David had a dinner with the student's family and he had apologized, it was the first time that David shows guilt for what he did. After that, David goes back home and begin to write his opera about Byron's life.

Time goes on and David begin to suspect that Lucy is pregnant, he goes back to the farm and his suspicious are confirmed. He try one more time to convince Lucy and he fails. She accept the pregnancy and she will give her farm to Petrus in exchange for security. She want to restart her life from the zero. Shortly, David begins to live in the town near to Lucy's farm and begins to work with Bev again. The book ends with David giving up in everything and starting something new when Lucy's baby is born.

I saw the title and thought, why not? I've never watched the movie but I know that the book is different and the movie just uses the concepts of Asimov's Robot Laws . I, Robot is a book with a collection of short stories (that are connected) about robots and human relationship. What makes the book different of another sci-fi robot genre, is the defined concept of machine behavior.

Sapiens - Part 2

Nowadays I enjoy a piece of pie or a chocolate bar as my "candy of the week". However, there's a lot of people who still eat a lot of candy or sweet food. You probably know a few of them, right? Do you know why we eat sweet food like it was our last meal? This unhealthy habit of eating too much candy is already socially accept among us; obesity cases has also been increasing rapidly throughout the world. You probably already have watched those cake videos with a lot of chocolate and calories, and people praising it like it was an eatable food. Well, if we look to the past, the far past when our ancestors were hunter-gatherers, we can understand a bit of this situation. Sorry, I'm too hyped with this game. A long fucking time ago , about 30 thousand years, our ancestors, that lived in the savannas an...
