Hay muchas cosas de este libro que me parecieron super fuertes que me dejaron mal pero entiendo que es así a propósito, muestra las situaciones y sentimientos crudos, brutales, caóticos, terribles, confusos
Es una historia re interesante que me enganchó desde el minuto 1, no podía soltarlo lo juro.
Hace banda no leía algo de este estilo pero no me arrepiento de nada.

This book completely sweeped me off my feet. I loved everything, from the writing style that lures you in and keeps you turning pages, to the different places that are still so vivid in my mind, to the cast of really cool strongly written characters, to every single topic explored (politics, social and economical hierarchy, drugs and addiction, war, religion and spirituality...). I am speechless. This novel kept me on the edge of my seat till the very end. I honestly can't wait to get my lil hands on the other 2 parts.
