Spooky but not super scary
Apart from the scene in the graveyard where she thought she saw something move

El futuro, pensó ella, no podía predecirse. No se podía adivinar la forma de las cosas. Pensar de otra manera era absurdo. Sin embargo, aquella mañana eran jóvenes y podían aferrarse a la esperanza. La esperanza de que pudiera rehacerse el mundo, un mundo más placentero, más amable.

ya lo he leído en inglés anteriormente y lo disfruté más leyéndolo esta vez. ahora puedo decir que es más oscuro y simbólico leerlo en español.

I went into this book knowing it was outside of my genre comfort zone, and reading it proved that it is just not a book for me. I had just heard too many great things to not give it a try. I also struggled with the cluncky writing. It felt like a metaphor would be given just to instantly spell out what it was. A bit too much telling rather than showing. I thought about dnf'i f multiple times, but pushed through to the end.

If you're a fan of darker stories this may be a good read for you, it just isn't my style.

THIS BOOK IS SO CREEPY!! And also glamorous and thrilling and so, so dark. I loved it. 

The darkness was almost too much for me, I think some content warnings need to be added to the list, but overall I have no regrets reading it. 

I love the main characters, and it was so interesting to find a story where I didn’t immediately fall in love with the villain (I usually can’t help myself but in this case I enjoyed being drawn to the niceness of certain characters). 

The storytelling within the plot was so rich, and the prose was gorgeous.
