It really is a good story and I love the ending. Such a beautifully made plot leaving you with goosebumps. 

There has been moments where I've felt disgust, sadness, anger and awe to the stories. 

The only thing I wish, is that I was aware of how graphic and sexual some of the content was... Which made me skip some lines here and there.

Eitherway, it's an amazing story which I recommend. The plot is well made and at the end you won't know what is true and what is not.

I still don’t know after reading this book which one is telling the truth. The book was great and I really liked how it followed Verity throughher life in a manuscript. The ending was surprising as well.

Lo bueno es que no esperaba nada, así que no salí decepcionada.

Lo que me gustó es que es muy entretenido y avanza rápido, así que no es para nada pesado. Lo que no me gustó es todo lo demás, empezando por la protagonista que es insoportable y al parecer no puede dejar de pensar en sexo, como si fuese un adolescente de 14 años.

Los personajes son super planos, especialmente el Jeremy que no tiene nada de interesante y lo único que sabemos de él es que coge un montón y que ama a sus hijos. Eso es todo. Ah, y que es un violento de mierda, aunque en el libro no se cuestionan para nada sus acciones.

Verity es el único personaje interesante, y eso porque es una psicópata.

La resolución me dejó indignada. Literalmente, los chabones matan a alguien, lo hacen pasar por un accidente y no tienen ningún remordimiento ni enfrentan ninguna consecuencia. ¡¿Qué mierda?! Y lo peor es que la Lowen se la pasa diciendo que lo que hicieron estaba justificado. Al parecer Verity no era la única psicópata.

No sé, no entiendo por qué gustó tanto este libro. Hay agujeros en la trama que hasta yo noté y demasiado sexo innecesario. Para colmo, en ningún lado lo califican como libro erótico.

This was the first book to get me reading, I love this book even though the author is controversial this book shaped alot of what I like reading today but if you don't like plot twists your probably not gonna like it.
