"Culpa nuestra" es el cierre de la trilogía Culpables.

No es la entrega más floja, aunque no alcanza el nivel de entretenimiento del primer libro.

Hay mucho drama alargando la trama, pero la mayor parte no aporta nada. Sentí que se podría haber beneficiado de ser más corto y enfocado. Cuenta con subtramas interesantes, pero se resuelven de manera muy rápida sin llegar a tener peso real, parece que están para sumar páginas.

Los personajes y relaciones siguen quedando del lado tóxico, sin embargo, me gusta que la autora haya intentado mostrar que no es el ideal. Y si bien al final los protagonistas están en un mejor lugar, tampoco es que hay un crecimiento notable.

En general, es un libro que se siente redundante y de momentos se vuelve aburrido, pero puedo ver porqué hay un público que lo disfruta.


TW: infidelidad, relaciones tóxicas, menciones sobre muerte de un bebé

"Culpa nuestra" is the last book in the Culpables trilogy.
It is not the weakest installment, but it does not reach the first book's entertainment level.

There's so much drama stretching out the plot and adding nothing -there are so many subplots that are resolved in a minute-. At some point, I thought the author just wanted to have a specific page count, so she kept adding new villains and situations.

Regarding the characters, our MCs continue to be toxic. However, the author tried to emphasize that it is not a good thing. So I think that's a win.

Overall, it's a book that feels redundant and gets boring at times, it could have benefited from being shorter. But I get why some people might enjoy it more.

TW: infidelity, toxic relationships, mentions of the death of a baby.
