katko123's review against another edition
2.0
A tribute written by a heartbroken grieving sister to her sister.
As much as I like the idea behind this book and feel for Cristina, unfortunately, I dnf it. It´s very chaotic with moments that aren't understandable. I mean there are parts thrown in that add nothing to the story.
In the beginning, we see Cristina, who lost her sister almost three decades ago, trying to obtain some files regarding the murder. Because Liliana was murdered. Mexico is infamous for femicide. The author writes interestingly about domestic violence and how Jacquelyn Campbell developed the first Danger Assessment tool.
Then the author writes about her memories, how she remembers Liliana. After that, we see Liliana as a person who loves to write, and how she was exchanging countless letters with her friends. At some point, the relationship with her boyfriend starts forming and Cristina while looking back is trying to find the first warning signs.
Well, the writing style is not for me. I can see why some people see this book as a wonderful act of sisterly love.
