Thank you to the translators for making this book accessible in English. This is horror!!! This feels very new gothic. Slow and tense from the beginning, no clue what's coming or why yet the story is being told. Building dread throughout up to the finale. Ugh. Ugh. Ugh. Grotesque and haunted

ha sido una lectura especial, es una historia diferente y original, tanto por lo que cuenta como por cómo lo narra, me ha parecido adictiva la forma de escribir que tiene Layla.

las últimas 30 páginas las he bebido, subrayado y absorbido totalmente, y mi recomendación sería leerlo sin saber de qué va previamente.

creo que al principio puede costar meterse en la historia por el tipo de escritura, y por eso creo que haré una relectura en un futuro próximo para disfrutar del inicio igual que del final.
