Honestly there is nothing wrong with this book it's just not my cup of tea.
I picked it up thinking it was going to be a quick sci-fi novella with a great cover but turns out to be about the horrors in Chile... something I know nothing about and has made me curious hence the 2 stars. Otherwise the plot was dreamy and scattered, very similar to the feel of The Virgin Suicides but with an ending that was completely different to the rest of the book.
