La perfección es inalcanzable. Sin embargo, Gustavo Cerati la buscó con fuerza y pasión en su arte. En conexión con ese espíritu irreductible, Algún tiempo atrás. La vida de Gustavo Cerati aborda el recorrido vital y creativo del hombre y del artista con la misma conciencia --la de que hay enigmas de imposible resolución-- pero sin limitarse jamás en su afanosa investigación. Decidido a recuperar la parte más luminosa de esta figura única, la de uno de los músicos argentinos de mayor proyección internacional, Sergio Marchi no deja rincón sin visitar: en procura tanto del compositor e intérprete que trascendió masivamente con Soda Stereo y luego se reinventó en una extraordinaria carrera solista, como del hijo de una familia trabajadora que --dato que suele olvidarse bajo el prejuicioso mito del «cheto»-- llegó desde el interior del país a la Buenos Aires de los 50; del niño travieso, curioso y activo; del adolescente insaciable que conoció la ebullición rockera de los 70; de ese muchacho que supo que habría de hacerse a sí mismo a fuerza de talento y también de trabajo. Del ser enamoradizo que encontró en las mujeres un manantial inagotable de inspiración, mucho amor y no pocos padecimientos; del marido y padre que anheló ser. Del obrero musical que muy poca gente conoció; que experimentó con el rock, el pop, la electrónica, con la tecnología y con sus pelos. Y de la estrella hábil, escurridiza y audaz que lidió con adversidades externas e internas y supo sortear muchas de las trampas de la fama. Del hombre que transitó varias lunas y unas cuantas vidas. En virtud de una investigación minuciosa, una multitud de entrevistas exclusivas a otros artistas, amigos y allegados, y un archivo personal enorme forjado a través de una relación de años que fue un vínculo profesional pero también de afecto y complicidad, Marchi pone en juego las múltiples dimensiones de este hacedor de universos, desbarata algunas falsas creencias y recupera la magia de un personaje a la vez mítico y absolutamente real y sensible, de carne y hueso. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Perfection is unreachable. However, Gustavo Cerati searched for it in his art with passion and might. Connecting with that irreducible spirit, Some Time Ago. The Life of Gustavo Cerati addresses the life and creative journey of the man and the artist with the same consciousness--aware that there are impossible enigmas--but never restricting its thorough investigation.Determined to recover the most luminous part of this unique figure, one of the most widely-renowned Argentinian musicians, Sergio Marchi covers every unknown corner, looking for both the songwriter and the musician that transcended massively with Soda Stereo and then reinvented himself in an extraordinary solo career. The son of a working-class family--a small detail often overlooked under the prejudiced myth of the cheto--that traveled from the interior to Buenos Aires in the fifties. A naughty boy, curious, and active; an unsatiable teenager who experienced the outbursts of rock in the seventies; a boy who knew he had to create himself by dint of talent, but also of hard work. That lovesick being who found in women an infinite spring of inspiration, much love, and plenty of suffering. The husband and father he longed to be. The crew member that very few people knew, who experimented with rock, pop, electronic music, technology, and his hair. And the crafty, elusive, audacious star that dealt with adversity, both externally and internally, and knew how to avoid many of the pitfalls of fame. Of the man who traveled several moons and quite a few lives. In virtue of a thorough research, a multitude of exclusive interviews with other artists, friends, and close relations, and a huge personal archive created throughout a years-long professional relationship that was also of affection and complicity, Marchi sets forth the multiple dimensions of this creator of universes, unravels some false beliefs, and recovers the magic of a man who was at once myth and absolutely real and sentient, a man of flesh and bone.

Baby bumps and bodyguards
Format: Kindle
Dark, emotional, and unexpectedly tender, Not Ready is an omegaverse romance that delivers found family feels, fierce protectiveness, and a very pregnant heroine who refuses to break. Vale’s on the run from a stalker, but lands in the arms of three private security alphas, cue the swoony tension, fake marriage twist, and slow-burn heat.
It’s a little gritty, a little soft, and a whole lot addictive. If you love protective alphas, high stakes, and heroines with quiet strength, this one’s a must-read.

Strong Omegaverse Comfort and a Attention Grabbing Plot
Format: Kindle
Jillian West never misses when it comes to Omegaverse, and Not Ready is no exception. This story was the perfect blend of cozy comfort and emotional depth while still delivering a strong plot.
Vale is such a powerful heroine, she is strong, capable, and determined but I love that she still allows her pack to love and take care of her. It’s that balance of independence and vulnerability that makes her so relatable.
The relationship dynamics were amazing: Bishop is steadfast and completely head over heels, Mercy is skeptical but protective in his own way, and Holt is the hesitant one whose slow fall is so satisfying to watch unfold.
The romance hits that sweet spot between insta-love and cautious build, keeping me hooked the entire way through. And that ending. Oh my god, the cliffhanger! I need the next book in this duet immediately.

Interesting
Format: Kindle
So I will say I enjoyed the story, for sure had its moments where it dragged but it was a great story. I really liked that omegas picked their alphas/make the pack. Normally the Alphas make it and the omega fits in with them which is great but I enjoyed this new version where all the power basically went to the omega. It was a nice change of pace. I can admit some of the weird bedroom stuff with her being pregnant was odd, it’s really not hard to do stuff when pregnant (I know I’ve had two and it’s normal and even encouraged at the end especially if you want the baby out). But I like the story as a whole and will read the second, I do hope the next one isn’t dragged bc it stopped being action or tense after she met her alphas and I don’t think it was brought up or properly done when they tried to do it. More sweet after she left.

I’m a little disappointed.
Format: Kindle
I usually like Jillian West’s books but this one was missing a lot for me. The pregnancy didn’t come across as real. She’s on her feet for 12 hour days but is perfectly healthy at 8 months pregnant? Yet the week she moves in all of a sudden she’s not? She is planning on actually running during one of the plot buildups. But at 8 months pregnant that’s incredibly hard to do. The lack of breathing ability and lung space, the change in body center, mass, and gravity. All of it prohibits running, unless you’re an athlete this didn’t come off as at all realistic.
I didn’t feel any connection with the alphas. There wasn’t any emotional connection. It could be because of the tense it was written in. But I didn’t get any deep feelings out of this. It came across as checking off boxes. Even the spicy scenes weren’t really believable for me. I wanted to see them fall for her, and it just kind of all fizzled. Even Bishop.
One thing I did really like was the ending. I did not see it coming and I’m interested in reading book two because of it. But on the whole this book was mostly disappointing for me.

Vale is an 8 month pregnant omega working as a waitress at a strip club and a cam girl. She starts to get very creepy vibes from a regular at the club, and her baby daddy ghosted her. She has had an online relationship with a man named Bishop through her cam girl status. One night, bishop was paying to watch her sleep and ansthe creepy regular Andrew break in and watch her sleep he tells vale to come to him at his business now. She flees and finds herself at a large security company with some.hot of alphas who are there to help her. This imegaverse is a little different than I have read, but I am thoroughly enjoying it. Vale is not a traditional omega she was raised by a single beta mom, and the alphas are not normal alphas they have never really loved pack life. But they are ruthless mercenaries. They need her, and she needs them. I love the aspect of the stalker and now the plot twists at the end, so so good. Sometimes, it seemed a little slow and stale mated, but since this a duet, I think It was just her starting to have Vale get to know her alpha suitors. Cliffhanger for sure with this one.
