The movie or the book?

"A reader lives a thousand lives before he dies. The man who never reads lives only one".- Jojen Reed

This is one of my favorite quotes in all the books I have read in my life. But I think that apply for books too. For me it´s difficult to choose between books and movies, because I like both, a lot. Like Jojen Reed said one could live a thousand lives through them, and it´s good like one could scape for a little time to the reality because of being reading or watching a movie.

Until a few years ago, I always think that books are far better than books. I think it today too, but no so deeply like I did before, because a romance book and it respective movie appear at the same time in my life, and if I have to point both since 1 to 10, they would severally take a 5 and a 100. I don´t like a lot romantic books and movies, but this story definitely touch my heart.

The book name is "Where the Rainbows End" by Cecilia Ahren, and the movie is named "Love, Rosie" because of the name of the main character, Rosie Dunne.

What makes the book attractive it´s the fact that there´s no storyteller, because every character is their own one along all the messages and email they send to Rosie. The book is a written in epistolary structure in the form of letters, emails, instant messages, and magazine and newspaper articles, all around the ever-changing relationship between Rosie and her best friend since child hood, Alex Stewart. It was funny to read a book life that, but it was exhausting sometimes too, maybe because I read it too fast or because it haves 429 pages in epistolary structure, and perfectly with one thousand more it could be the same story. It haves a lot filling.

The movie for the same its in a lot of ways more dynamic, because the epistolary structure of the book it´s a tool in the story, the means that Rosie and Stewart have to communicate in the distance.

I read it the book and watched the movie like two years ago for the first time, but the movie I have watched it again a lot of times after.

At the end, even when I like more the movie than the book, I recommend both at all, the movie because is a beautiful love story, that have hard and funny moments; and the book because with it structure shows angles of the life of the main character that make us thinks of the angle of our lifes:  we live with the communication but we don´t always see everything, we tell the stories since our point of view, but building it with the stories of the people that it´s near of us.

My name is Antonia Jesús Morales Berríos, sister, and step sister. I live with my parents and my young brother in Maipú, when my mother and my father decided to live after they get married in 1996. My parent came from Tocopilla to studied Civil Construction when he was 17, but he changed his mind at second year because he found his vocation in the education. He is know and PE teacher, and while he was in a summer camp he met my mother. She, that has been living in Santiago her entire life, was studying to be a Spanish teacher, and they got married before my dad got the divorced with his, from that moment, ex wife, with which have a son, my step brother Daniel.

The body is amazing. Complex. Hard to understand. It haves too many functions, cells, and not even talk about the biological molecules. One thing that calls me too much the attention, it´s one of these elementary elements for life, it´s a simple carbohydrate, compound about six carbons, twelve hydrogens, and six oxygen atoms, and makes that our entire body works. I´m talking about the glucose, and especially about its pathway. If a person has their normal blood levels of glucose, there is no problem. A problem could appear when there are complications in the production of a hormone that helps glucose enter our cells to be used as energy: the Insulin. This hormone it's produced by the pancreas, located at the top of the abdomen, back of the stomach and it has a size of fifteen centimeters. The people that have a problem with Insuline it´s because the pancreas does not produce insulin or because it doesn´t produce enough. These conditions are diseases and answer to the n...
