La veritat sobre el cas Harry Quebert by Imma Falcó, Joël Dicker
12 reviews
copiani's review against another edition
And no amount of of Harry monologuing about how he knows it’s wrong to be in love with a 15 year old changes the fact that he was still in love with a 15 year old
And Joel Dicker is trying to pass this relationship off as a genuine mutual love story?? I can’t

I feel like most of the characters were these stereotype/charicature mesh, with absolutely absurd details about some of the side characters. In the end, all of the twists and turns at the end weren't enough to convince me, as I felt it was just taking too long.

The MC is Marcus, an best seller author that doesn't have the inspiration to write a second book. He goes to spend some time with his mentor, Harry Quebert which is later accused to have killed Nola, a 15 year old girl that disappeared in 75'. Marcus then set to find out what really happened that year and decides to write a story about the case.
The book is really slow and although there is a new founding every few pages, I found myself bored and struggling. I found some problematic things about the book, like the fact our main character doesn't really condone the relationship between Harry (a 30 years old man at that time) and Nola, which is basically the whole book plot. I felt like the author didn't really established the relationship as crime (which btw it is!!!)
In end the murderer wasn't really a surprise if you pay attention to the details.
It's a book that every mystery lover should read at least once to experience, and maybe you'll like it better than I did.
