Warning: under caffeinated, stream-of-consciousness review ahead.
While the first book on this series was a Wes Anderson-like jaunt through a mountaintop massacre, this installment read rather differently. I may adjust my rating after sitting with it for a bit, but the vast majority of the book was a little insufferable. Perhaps that was part of the narrative point? Upon reflection, it seems it might have been. However, this is a year of reading and reviewing based on vibes and enjoyment for me, and I did not particularly enjoy the parts in which our MC and narrator were being insufferable. Hoping the next installment will find our MC in less of an authorial existential crisis.

Me gustó este libro. Fue original, realista. Me gustó el tono de conversación con el lector y los plot twists. El epílogo me encantó, muy buen cierre.
Sin embargo, creo que al final es demasiado forzado que prácticamente todas las historias estén entrelazadas
