Well...that was interesting. Unfortunately there were several glaring loose ends and the ending was weak and disappointing. I'd like to see this as a more expanded work, or maybe a companion piece told from one of the parents' perspectives to fill in some of the holes.
Ça m'a fait pensé a une série coréenne que j'avais aimé et finalement ça n'avait rien à voir. Je lirai le 2.
NIIIIICE.
Which is completely inappropriate for a story of this content and magnitude but I'm still just kind of overwhelmed by how COOL this is.
Not for the weak of stomach. Like Children of Men mixed with Amy Number Seven mixed with Life After Life mixed with I don't even know what, it's just awesome and beautifully crisply done.

Reading-wise, 2020 has been a blast so far. The upside of being sick in bed is that it gives a pretty good excuses for reading the books one might have accidentally bought in an end of year TOR sale. The Murders of Molly Southbourne was indeed one of those.
I didn't know anything about it going in, except that I had seen it passing my feed a lot some time ago. And I think it was for the better. I was definitely not expecting this kind of strange, original tale and coming-of-age of Molly and her 'hemophilia'. I'm still a bit surprised it was possible to put so much story in so short a novel.
The only downside for me was some thing, rather important for the worldbuilding and as far as I can tell not so very important for the overall story, where quite randomly dropped on the reader and never really explained well. I hope the sequel will take care of that. But don't let that stop you from reading this.

Maraillosa novela, corta pero intensa. Me ha dejado con ganas de la secuela.
