El L.A. Confidential del siglo XXI.Un thriller apasionante sobre la corrupta fábrica de sueños de Hollywood.
«El libro que todos esperábamos.» -Michael Connelly
Ganadora del Ian Fleming Steel Dagger Award Mujer eficaz y solvente, Mae Pruett trabaja en Los Ángeles como solucionadora de problemas para lo que ella llama «la Bestia», una discreta pero solvente red de abogados, agencias de relaciones públicas y compañías de seguridad privada que se encarga de proteger a personas ricas y poderosas, incluidas las grandes celebridades de Hollywood. Sin embargo, cuando su jefe y mentor Dan Hennigan es abatido a tiros en un ataque aparentemente aleatorio en pleno Sunset Boulevard, su vida da un vuelco. Obligada a enfrentarse al retorcido sistema de «la Bestia» y a la corrupción que lo sustenta, Mae se embarca en una aventura alucinante por una ciudad poblada de magnates, adictos, vagabundos, policías corruptos, almas perdidas, depredadores en busca de carne joven y misteriosos equipos de demolición que actúan en medio de la noche mientras lucha sin cuartel por su vida y su redención. Ganadora del prestigioso premio Ian Fleming Steel Dagger y seleccionada como mejor novela negra del año por The New York Times, The Guardian y The Times, Silencios que matan es una novela adictiva, oportuna y desgarradora que combina la brutalidad de James Ellroy con la sensibilidad poética de Raymond Chandler en un viaje a corazón abierto por una metrópoli, Los Ángeles, cuyos contrastes la convierten en poco menos que una jungla iluminada con luces de neón. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION In this "dazzling" (New York Times Book Review) mystery from an Edgar Award winning author, a fearless black-bag publicist exposes the belly of the L.A. beast. A New York Times Best Crime Book of the Year - A NYTBR Editors' Choice Selection - An Anthony Award Nominee - A Barry Award Nominee - An ABA January 2023 Indie Next List Pick - Recommended by New York Times Book Review - NPR/Fresh Air - Wall Street Journal - Washington Post - LA Times - CrimeReads - The Boston Globe - South Florida Sun Sentinel - Alta Online - Lit Hub- Kirkus Reviews- Publishers Weekly- NBC/TODAY and many more! Welcome to Mae Pruett's Los Angeles, where "Nobody talks. But everybody whispers." As a "black-bag" publicist tasked not with letting the good news out but keeping the bad news in, Mae works for one of LA's most powerful and sought-after crisis PR firms, at the center of a sprawling web of lawyers, PR flaks, and private security firms she calls "The Beast." They protect the rich and powerful and depraved by any means necessary. After her boss is gunned down in front of the Beverly Hills Hotel in a random attack, Mae takes it upon herself to investigate and runs headfirst into The Beast's lawless machinations and the twisted systems it exists to perpetuate. It takes her on a roving neon joyride through a Los Angeles full of influencers pumped full of pills and fillers; sprawling mansions footsteps away from sprawling homeless encampments; crooked cops and mysterious wrecking crews in the middle of the night. Edgar Award-winner Jordan Harper's Everybody Knows is addicting and alarming, a "juggernaut of a novel" and "an absolute tour de force." It is what the crime novel can achieve in the modern age: portray the human lives at the center of vast American landscapes and make us thrill at their attempts to face impossible odds. "The book everybody's been waiting for" --Michael Connelly "The best mystery novel I've read in years" --James Patterson

Better than the movie
Format: Kindle
I really loved this book. The Disney movie was clearly only very loosely based on this wonderful story. I’m actually kinda mad I ever saw the movie because it kept me from the book for so long.

A fairytale classic made even better!
Format: Paperback
Embellishing on the original tale of Cinderella, Gail Levine has written an imaginative and touching story - a classic in its own right. While the traditional fairytale focuses on the magical rags-to-riches transformation of a scullery maid into a princess, Levine's heroine is very real in both her defeats and her triumphs. Ella is a wonderful character whose unwavering sense of humor and refusal to succumb make her an endearing heroine whom the reader eagerly follows through her journeys. The friendship that she shares with Prince Char, her struggles to break the curse placed on her at birth, the pain and the joy that she feels at each turn of events are drawn with a clarity and poignant charm that make this a unique story all its own. There is, of course, glass slippers, a ball, the pumpkin coach - but this story goes far beyond the original to become something more. It is not just about one magical night that makes a servant into a princess; it is about the life of a girl who is more than what she seems and has only to realize it for herself to make her wishes come true.
Ella Enchanted is a wonderful story for readers of all ages, and there is an amazing depth to this tale that cannot help but make you think. Despite the omnipresent existence of magic and the whimsical creatures that include everything from gnomes and elves to giants and ogres, the focus of the story is very real. We are, each of us, a little bit like Ella - struggling to be who we are while everything around us tries to make us otherwise. I strongly recommend this book to anyone who loves fairytales and children's books - especially to anyone who loves the story of Cinderella.

Timeless
Format: Hardcover
My first born daughter is literally named Ella after Ella Enchanted. This is the most meaningful children’s book I ever experienced in childhood and it continues to hold up as I have reread it to my Ella in parenthood. It’s still so fun and magical and heartfelt. Thank you Gail Carson Levine for this literary gem!

Beloved childhood classic for a reason
Format: Paperback
Not to give away my age, but I owned this book when I was younger and lent it to a friend and never got it back. I finally gave into my desire to own it again and purchased it from amazon. I'm so happy that I did. This book definitely holds up even after all these years. It's this kind of writing that helped me fall in love with the idea of being a writer. I've read some of Gail Carson Levine's other books and enjoyed them to varying degrees. I remember reading The Wish and thinking, even as a child, that it was incredibly bland. But Ella Enchanted is truly one of her gems.
It is heartfelt and well-written with a truly wonderful heroine. Now that I'm older I do see more of the problems. The writing is a lot simpler than I remember but I suppose that it needs to be for the reading level of the target audience so I won't count that as a negative. As with most young adult novels, it is on the shorter side. This leads to some awkward pacing and a lack of development. There's not really enough of her friend Areida or her adventures. The romance with Char is underdeveloped though conveyed skillfully enough that by the end I was very invested in the outcome. The ending and epilogue after the dramatic conclusion also come across as a little rushed. Still, I think it's a wonderful story for young girls and a truly inspiring heroine for them to identify with. For older readers, it's a pleasant diversion. The strength of the story is Ella and the way Levine writes the scenes that are meant to have a big emotional impact. I understand when people say the story meanders a bit and how it could be boring for some people. Levine doesn't do a great job with descriptions despite the complexity of the world she's imagined. It's difficult to really picture anything in your head based on the descriptions she gives. She's not a world-builder like the big name fantasy writers. She's more interested in the characters and the main plot arc for the heroine.
I would recommend this book for a reader or parent looking for a strong, believable female protagonist. It's not a great fantasy novel and it's a little underdeveloped but the individual scenes are well written and the emotion, lesson, and strong character arc are there. I'd also recommend getting the new version as there are great extras including information about the languages Levine developed for the various creatures in the world of Ella Enchanted. I don't remember these being included in the first edition.
