A review by magparsley
Maldito Karma by David Safier

5.0

I read this book a few years back and I must say it is one of my many, many favourite. David had a genius idea with the story and the characters he created are just so real.
The book is in the first person of Kim Lange, a tv women, famous with the biggest career, married and with a daughter. You know, that someone that we see on tv and think “that girl must have it all”. And we get to know her, her large ego, and her life (after she passed away) through her own voice. I must say that I never thought to read a book written by a men with a women as a main character but… that could actually be written by a women. Kim character is just so well built, in her worst and best (and my favourite character in the book by the way).
To me this book is the perfect mix of light reading, a bit of life philosophy and reflection, positive vibes and with so much humour… OMG, I can tell you it is hilarious. Seriously, from start to end, I could not stop bursting out laughing out with the bitchy and snarky Kim’s personality and the situations she had to face during all her reincarnations as animals until she finally be able to became a human again. And of course, if there is reincarnation, you will have Buda in the story and he does not make this easy on her.
In conclusion: perfect reading after a hard day just to have a good laught.
