Me deje de llevar por todo el hype que hay alrededor de este libro, de no ser por el audiolibro probablemente no lo hubiera terminado.
Algunos personajes no me gustaron me parecieron planos, la trama me estaba gustando pero cuando se explica todo lo que hay alrededor como que no me termino de convencer.
Lo que me gusto es que un libro fácil, al inicio si es algo lento pero después de eso todo va mejorando, la narradora fue un plus me gustaba como caracterizaba a cada personaje.

Very much enjoyed this book. Gross, creepy and full of twists and turns.
I liked the underlying themes of patriarchy, racism and classism clinging to power, and how that power corrupts.

Ooooh, I wanted to like this one so much more than I did. It was just flat. The characters felt one-dimensional, the writing was surface-level and distant, and the plot didn't really exist until halfway through the book. The no plot thing would have been no problem if the characters were stronger. And the atmosphere and story itself was so confusing, meandering, and without focus. I liked what it was trying to do, but it just didn't do it well. This modern Gothic book that's supposed to follow the tradition of the classics: the Jane Eyres, the Wuthering Heights, all my Victorian and pre-Victorian classic baddies: it just didn't measure up. For mt Gothic fiction loving heart, it made me want to pick up other novels that I know have done this genre much, much better.
