vikimansfield's review against another edition
3.0
I so wanted this to be better than it was, but it just didn’t live up to my expectations having read the first one - there were definitely times I carried on reading because I was emotionally invested in the trilogy by this point, rather than because I was genuinely enjoying it. That being said there were exciting bits and it was good enough to ensure I bought the final book in the trilogy!

Pues regulero. El primero me gustó mucho, pero en este he echado en falta todos los detalles que disfruté del primero: el humor, conocer individualmente a Colomba y a Dante, la buena sintonía entre ambos, la participación de compañeros (Alberti, Santini, Rovere, Curcio, etc).
He sentido que no sigue dándonos a conocer a Dante y a Colomba, no sólo sus traumas, si no sus motivaciones también, sus preocupaciones. Quizá algunas quedan delineadas, muy esquematizadas, pero poco más. Creo que ha dejado abandonada la química entre los protagonistas en favor de un Dante enamorado, no ya como un adolescente, sino como un crío. Que sí, que tiene esa dualidad adulto-infante, pero es que tampoco ese enamoriscamiento queda definido, delineado, queda desdibujado y parece hasta salir de la nada.
La acción sigue presente y está claro que a Dazieri le gusta más una bomba que a un niño un caramelo

I was interested at the beginning but as the story went on, I couldn't find myself liking the characters and I found it incredibly boring and dragged on. The only part I enjoyed was the last 20 pages but I had to force myself to keep picking up the book to finish it.

It's such a pity I couldn't give this book more stars but unlike it's predecessor, it just wasn't exciting enough. Quite frankly, it was a bit uninteresting and even though I only finished it yesterday, I've already forgotten it. Good premise, wrong execution. Hopefully the third installment will be better.

the beginning wasn't great, I don't like when books talk about what happened in the book before it as though the reader didn't read it but the second half of the book was good. I love dante and colomba 🥺
