Odié profundamente un detalle particular, y es la cantidad de chistes sobre violación que hace Michael. No me sorprende considerando los antecedentes de Quinn, pero el hecho de que se hubiera tomado el tiempo de marcarlo como un hombre que sabe lo que es el consentimiento para luego hacer esas bromas (sobretodo en relación a la libertad sexual entre él y Frannie) se me hizo pesadísima. No son muchas, pero definitivamente le bajan una estrella al libro.

There is some attempt at highlighting consent, though I won't say that Micheal doesn't engage in some slightly iffy behavior around pregnancy to convince Francesca.
Still, one of my favorites Bridgeton books so far.

However I wish we got a bit more discussion between Michael and Francesca about Johns passing, as it was such a traumatic event for the both of them although we never seen them actively talks about it together which is a shame, I think it would have put the book up to four stars if we did.
