Un gran pendiente que tenía desde hace rato, tristemente realista.

I loved the concept of this - how media can tear a person's life and character apart, even if that action is based on lies, and the violence this can lead to - but I just didn't gel with the writing style whatsoever. I don't really enjoy books where the author feels like a complete presence, so it wasn't really for me in the end.

This was a one-sit book, started and could not stop. The chronological jumps are extremely well done and are there to enrich the story.

The style of writing feels more like a police or news report. Great concept that fits perfectly with the way this novella is written.

Alas, tabloid journalism is just as toxic today, if not more so, and destroyed lives are a small price to pay for a hacks need to grab headlines.
