My review is mixed. It was a good read but needed a better proofreader/editor and it’s hard for me to get past mistakes like someone leaves the room then the main character ‘hangs up’ - for example.
Good YA read - but does involve adult themes (beyond murder) thankfully nothing graphic.

La historia es simple en un principio, 2 adolescentes son asesinados en una casa y solo pudo haberlo hecho alguien que se encontrase en la casa esa noche. Que la mayoría de los sospechosos sean amigos del mismo grupo funciona como método para engancharte a la trama, ya que sientes curiosidad por averiguar quien es el traidor. Como todos son posibles culpables, cada uno de los personajes tiene que tener algún secreto turbio para hacerte creer que es el asesino, y a veces esto resulta un poco cargante.
Durante la lectura me he encontrado con escenas y frases que me han sacado de la historia por lo “???” que eran (ya siento no encontrar un término más adecuado). Por ejemplo: “El tío de Aaron pegaba a su mujer antes de que ella lo abandonara y Aaron aborrece la violencia contra las mujeres” ???
Por último, voy a mencionar una cosa que me irrita de verdad y es la lesbofobia que desprende este libro. Por supuesto, también bifobia, porque en este universo parece que no existe directamente. Creo que la palabra bisexual no es ni mencionada. Dejando de lado momentos estelares como el “p3R0 tU n0 erEs lEsbiAn4” de Mackenzie,
No ha sido una decepción como tal porque tampoco esperaba mucho de este libro más allá del mamarracheo adolescente sangriento, pero pensaba que iba a disfrutar más de esta lectura, la verdad.
