El libro me ha parecido fantástico, aunque para ser sincera al principio me pareció algo lento y no me engancho pero conforme iba avanzando en cada página más ganas tenía de saber que pasaba, el final en cierto modo de una manera o de otra hay cosas que te esperas, pero también hay otras que no.
I thought the book was fantastic, although to be honest at first it seemed a bit slow and I wasn't hooked, but as I progressed through each page, the more I wanted to know what was going to happen, the end, in a certain way, one way or another, there are things that you expect, but there are also others that do not

WHY
Dear Quinn
You're a grown fucking woman. Please realize that.
This book was soooooo repetitive. I read about Quinn being baffled at new revelations about Esther and repeating them over and over and OVER again so many times! WE GET IT! You don't know your roommate at all, you're in love with a coworker who's already in a relationship (ew go away) and you just cannot decide how you feel about anything.
And Alex. Has there ever been a more boring character in a book EVER? Yeah, he's apparently "smart" but all I read was him making googly eyes at some random stranger and bringing said stranger sweatshirts and kerosene heaters although he didn't even know her NAME!
The ending was whatever. I guess it would have been more impactful if I'd actually cared about or liked any of the character in this book (which I didn't, including the always-supportive-always-there-lies-to-his-girlfriend BEN you jerk) but I honestly couldn't muster any positive emotion by that point.
After "The Good Girl," which I enjoyed MUCH more, this was just a huge disappointment. I don't think I'll be reading anything by this author again.

Don't You Cry packs the usual punches, twists, and turns expected of Kubica's novels, but fails to reach the thought provoking depth her other work. All the elements are put into place for a wickedly suspenseful experience, however I was left feeling like I just survived another YA novel about finding true friends and love in the big city.

I enjoyed this book a lot. I liked how you automatically assume something about a book, but it turns out to be something totally unexpected. It kept me on my toes trying to figure out "who is it?"

This read was not for me. The story was promising, but it lacked execution. The story tended to drag and it was a slow-paced book. Hence, there were moments where I had to put the book down. I thought the characters were okay in this book as well. I think they lacked characterization. The last 20% was better than the rest of the book. I am going to read more of this author's books because I think she has potential. Overall, an okay read.

Slow start and then it picks up but not until around page 300.
