ladynavalon's review against another edition

No me han llamado los personajes,me han despertado cero simpatías y son un cliché andante cada uno, y la trama me ha parecido demasiado rebuscada para nada.

This was pretty good!! I enjoyed the buildup a lot and I loved how the characters ended up becoming really close by the end of the story. I wasn't really shocked with the plot-twists, because it felt kind of obvious. But still, it was really good and a great read. 

would most likely reread, but not definitely ☑️
