A review by lekiare
Lágrimas en la lluvia by Rosa Montero

4.0

There's a lot to love about this book. It's set in the world of Blade Runner and yet it isn't. The main character is Bruna Husky, a replicant, a technohuman who ritualistically counts down the days of her inevitable demise: 4 years, two months, twenty-one days. She's a tough, flawed character thrust into solving a murder spree of replicants. Obviously, her little search leads her towards something more.

I wonder what it would have been like to read this in English. Montero's descriptions are detailed and humorous. I know I lost something in my own translation, but as a whole, it's such a fun read. I enjoy a good sci-fi mystery, and this has it all.

My only complaint is that it wrapped up all too neatly. I'm wondering if this isn't the last that we've read of Bruna Husky. I hope not.
