I don't know if it is because I read the first one a long time ago and i didn't really remember it but I felt too unbother through all of it.
Like yes I love my girl pip and ravi and I really like the theme and the way it is written but it didn't really catch me (emotionally ig).
I enjoyed it and when I put myself to read I couldn't quite stop but it didn't felt like the first one, like, to be honest, jamie was too much of a background character for me.
Will read the third because the end of this one gave me hope, we are again with pip and how everything affected her (that somehow I don't think it was really mentioned). Really excited about the third, as I heard is a good end for the thrilogy.
Over all, a good book but personally prefered the first.
-mid spoiler ahead-
pd: also so important to say that i really liked how holly worked through the trauma, and the anger with both Max and what happened with Stanley. That was the part that really touched me, the feeling of unfairness and honestly pip did nothing compared with what i would do to max.

Oh. Mi. Titán.
Que bueno que no lo hice, es de los mejores misterios que he leído, de no ser por mi trabajo me hubiera terminado el libro en un día. A ver, no voy a mentir si es sorprendente donde inician y donde terminan, pero el misterio no está mal hecho, las diferentes tramas son resueltas en tiempo y forma, los giros de trama que tiene van construyendo la expectativa para cuando se revela la verdad del asunto, los temas que trata y la forma en que Pip cambia a lo largo del libro *cheff kiss*
Hay 3 cosas que me gustaría resaltar:
- El uso del trope No somos tan distintos/somos iguales
con la revelación de que Charlie Green es el hermano menor de la última víctima del Monstruo de Margate porque, en efecto, Pip y él no son distintos,Charlie incluso le ayuda a Pip a llegar a terminos con su propia forma de ser. Quisiera que usaran así el trope más seguido, que ni tú ni el personaje estén del todo seguros (o bien sepan) que son iguales. Y les apuesto lo que quieran a que Pip no derrama ni una lágrima por Max Hastings. - Cuando
Pip toma la justicia en sus manos o Charlie Green obtiene su venganza ni la autora, ni uno de los personajes sale de santurrón con No, esa no es la forma de proceder, debes subirte a este pedestal de moralidad hueca y decirte que eres mejor que eso hasta que te convenzas. Miren no digo que haya que hacer siempre como ellos, pero le tengo un gran respeto aCharlie por haberse puesto esa meta y lograrlo (A diferencia de Edmond Dantés). Y también me siento orgulloso de Pip porvandalizar la casa de los Hastings y que defendiera a Stanley Forbes - Que Pip encuentre su sentido de moral propio y que decida vivir según este es de los mejores mensajes que he visto en tiempos recientes.
Ya auiero leer los otros libros en esta serie 😄😄
Sobre lo de queMax Hastings sale libre a pesar de ser un violador en serie comprobado, me encantaria un libro donde la víctima es él. Acusan a Pip del crimen e investiga el caso para limpiar su nombre pero deja ir libre al verdadero culpable, al fin de cuentas es justicia.
