4.1 AVERAGE

Plot or Character Driven: Character

Honestamente esperaba más de esta historia. Me tomó bastante tiempo terminarla, pues no me cautivó desde el principio. Hubo partes que me gustaron y me mantuvieron atraída, pero no fue así durante toda la lectura. El libro es bueno pero siento que pudo tomar menos páginas.
3.5/5

Por dónde empezar a alabar este maravilloso relato. Me ha encantado de principio a fin. Una prosa hermosa, unos personajes que enamoran, me sentí linarense durante el tiempo de lectura. Amé a Simonopio, lloré por Francisco y me sentí identificada con Beatriz. Qué destreza tiene la autora para escribir diálogos que no son diálogos. Me quito el sombrero.

Just not for me. Too slow and meandering.

mysterious reflective medium-paced

Unique writing style of magical realism definitely a book you have to pay attention to when you read to catch all the symbolism.
