bookishlucy's review against another edition

I don't understand why we're writing explicit sex scenes about a 16 year-old girl in a book written for adults. The main character is also very men-writing-women. I don't feel like the author understands what it's like to be a teen girl or a woman. The narration style I couldn't get into. The footnotes felt unnecessary most of the time and pulled me out of the story.
The prolouge got me really excited but immediately after I was already disappointed.

Wow, qué libro TAN bueno… no sé qué tipo de droga le ha metido Jay Kristoff a este libro, porque sin duda ha sido una total adicción. No podía parar de leer y mis horas de sueño han sido descontroladas porque necesitaba saber qué pasaba en cada momento… es que he sido incapaz de soltar este libro.
Mia es sin duda uno de los mejores personajes que he leído en toda mi vida y Don Majo es LO MEJOR con sus comentarios sarcásticos y la amistad y cariño que tienen entre ambos🖤 y Tric me ha enamorado perdidamente.
No puedo esperar más a seguir leyendo los siguientes libros, tengo tantas preguntas sin respuesta😭😭 ¡¡¡¡¡necesito saber qué pasa!!!!!
