I was a little disappointed after reading blue sisters. While I love the writing style of this book the “no plot, just vibes” critique was too adamant to ignore. It felt like nothing was happening then BOOM suicide attempt. Like HUH??? While I really sympathize for Cleo’s situation, that really drew me out of it. But I liked Elenor and Santiago. I much preferred blue sisters tho.
