Most of the time, I was cross with Joan and her lack of accountability or lack of energy for well, anything? She just felt so blasé and it was frustrating to read, although I think that’s the whole point of her character.
I also get why she would’ve felt the need to try and justify every single one of her actions though…
This one definitely needs content warnings which I’ll include below.
Only 2 out of 5 stars for me this time unfortunately 😫 It was hard to put down at times but also hard to get through, because nobody was in a good place and it felt like there was a need to glamourise that 🥲

¡Wow! Una historia que no aburre en lo absoluto, está llena de giros y misterio, así como una telenovela pero bien hecha [de la mejor manera posible]. Me provocó muchísimas cosas, ansiedad, asco, ternura, tristeza y mucha, mucha rabia. La protagonista vive en constante peligro y nos lleva por un camino fragmentado hacia la búsqueda de cercanía en un mundo que la amenaza y la cosifica.
Para mí está siendo imposible articular todo lo que me movió, es un libro que se vive.
Y si te atreves a leerlo, agárrate bien porque estoy segura que no deja espacio para la indiferencia, lo amas o lo odias.
Mucho trigger warning así que beware.
