Cuando empecé el libro no podía parar de leerlo y me lo leí de un día para otro. Me enganchó de la primera página a la última porque necesitaba saber el causante de todo y, aunque dudaba fuertemente entre dos personas en concreto, no fueron ninguna de ellas. Este es el primer libro que me leo de la autora y me ha volado la cabeza.

I can appreciate this book for what it is - revolutionary for its time, politically piercing and gripping. 

I had my predictions for who dunnit. I finished it in a single sitting. 

I just don't think plot-driven murder mysteries with a huge ensemble cast are my thing. I prefer character-driven development and I really want to care about the fate of the people I'm spending time with. 

It was an easy read, but not super satisfying.
