Nina Riva es la protagonista principal, y está muy bien desarrollada, la conocemos desde que nace hasta su edad actual, podemos ver como una sola noche puede cambiar tanto a una persona, como ella se cansa de complacer a la gente sin decir lo que realmente piensa, siempre poniendo a los demás por encima de sus propias necesidades.
Un punto malo que vería en el libro es que te introducen a muchos personajes, y aunque algunos si tienen relevancia en la historia, otros simplemente no vuelven a aparecer, o hasta vemos su punto de vista en varias secciones del libro, que realmente no es interesante y llega a ser tedioso cuando queremos saber qué pasó con los protagonistas.
En general, un libro con personajes femeninos muy bien desarrollados, una ambientación muy buena, y personajes de otros libros que en este podemos llegar a conocer a profundidad, como Mick Riva.

So this book is about a family and their history and you really get to see into each of the siblings/ and every family members mind. they’re a family who live near the ocean and I’ve never read a book that’s about surfers, which was really cool.
So there is a famous party where every hollywood star is and like the author said in the Q&A it’s really inspired by the great Gatsby. It was quite interesting, but it just kind of felt like one of those romance movies (Love Actually), because sometimes in between the chapters about the family you have like two pages where there’s a random star who hooks up with someone else or who finds the love of their life at this party, which is just so random, but kind of fun tbh
literally all of the men in this book are red flags!!!
To be honest I’m not sure if I’m going to read ‘Carrie Soto is back’ any time soon because she does not seem like a great person in this book. I’m sure that it’s going to be interesting but I think I just don’t wanna read it right now.
Junes story makes me so mad omg :(((
There’s soooo much drama at the party btw holy shit
