This features maybe one of the best unreliable narrators I've read. The plot was winding, cyclical and intense. I found myself surprised by the wide range of feelings I had for each of the characters depending on what I understood about them at any given time.
Maybe 3.5? Interesting idea, well-executed. But ultimately I think I was expecting ... more?
Me ha gustado mucho este libro. Es el primer libro que leo que sea un thriller asiático y me ha encantado la forma de narrarlo, tan introspectivo y con tantos saltos.
Había cosas que esperaba, pero aún así he disfrutado mucho la lectura y ha conseguido meterme de pleno en la atmósfera tensa de la novela.

An absolutely intense, atmospheric and gripping novel. I love the way the book slowly reveals itself. It was like descending the steps into the darkest corners of the psyche.

2.5 I stopped & started this so many times that it was difficult to stay interested. Perhaps if I hadn’t been on vacation with enough time to lose the momentum of plot & characters.... It felt disjointed but that’s probably because I wasn’t able to read it in a shorter/closer time frame. I’m giving it 3 - my issues were not with the book.

Esse livro é bem mais que interessante, eu achei que ficaria mais “chocada”com o que tinha acontecido, mas acho que lá no fundo eu estava esperando.
Custou pra mim acreditar que ele tinha matado o próprio irmão e isso sim me custou acreditar. A leitura flui muito bem, com detalhes precisos e um sentimento de curiosidade e agonia ficam lado a lado, gostei de ter tido essa experiência.
