The world can be and will be cruel.
Compelling, Intriguing, Dark, twisty and so so disturbing.
I liked this book but to me it wasn't that engaging for me.
The man in this book is so cruel and just downright not a good person at all.

tormentalidad's review against another edition

Este libro tenía una función: distraerme en las largas horas en la sala de espera de un hospital. Y lo ha cumplido con creces, me costaba tener que dejar de leer para hacer otras cosas. Muy buen thriller, con muchas escenas tensas, desagradables y duras que despiertan mucho en el lector. Cuando pensaba que empezaba a entender lo que estaba pasando, un giro en la trama me descolocaba de nuevo. Sin embargo, el final no me ha terminado de convencer (¿alguien que lo haya leído me puede explicar a qué se refería la autora con que Lena hacía excursiones con su hija? Si estaba atada y encerrada, no entiendo nada). También siento que la representación del autismo y lgbt es un poco extraña y manida (quizá por la traducción).
En general me ha gustado mucho, he estado con el corazón encogido todo tiempo.
