I was probably still too banged up from my fever to listen to this audiobook. I found it super hard to focus on, with the changing timelines and the chaotic atmosphere. 

This was sad, violent and brutal. Full of powerlessness and anguish. I truly hope this isn’t a reality for people, though at the same time I realise it very much is for many folks around the world. 

As my brain is still fogged up from the fever, I don’t have exact memories of the book, but I’m left with the feeling of a prey trying to escape capture.

J’ai épousé une ombre, Venezuelan edition.

I expected more Venezuela and I feel disappointed.

I’m gonna be honest I just never quite got into this book. I never found myself invested in the story or the character. Part of the problem might be how lazer focused it was on this one singular person. Idk. I also didn’t find the ending super satisfying.
