 A pesar de que esta novela tiene muchos clichés, y aunque sabía que el final iba a ser trágico, me llegó mucho y me dejó sensible. 
Ninguna de las dos protagonistas terminó por caerme bien, siento que no tenían una buena relación ni tenían buena comunicación. Y también siento que hubo problemas en cómo se contaba la historia, hubo saltos de tiempo importantes y se perdió la oportunidad de detallar cómo fue la relación de Emma y de Clementine.

Me encantó el uso de los colores, y también ver cómo Clementine fue descubriendo su sexualidad. Sin embargo, sí que me decepcionó un poco cómo se mostró la bisexualidad en la novela.
