Es entretenido y aunque me ha gustado bastante, es muy introductorio y no pasa gran cosa hasta el final, que es lo que más me ha gustado. Eso sí, parece que las experiencias cercanas a la muerte son algún tipo de fetiche para la autora, que no es la primera vez que las usa en una de sus sagas, por lo que le resta algo de interés. El mundo que ha creado, eso sí, tiene su magia y dan ganas de entrar en el Velo junto a Cass.

me encanta el estilo del libro,que tenga un tanto paranormal y lo que más me gusta además de las cosas que aprendes sobre edimburgo son su personajes.
amó las referencias hechas a harry potter alrededor del libro y amé durante todo el libro a cassidy,a jacob,a lara y a grimm.
se me hizo muy facil llevarme bien con los personajes y cogerles un gigantesco cariño,además de que entrar en el mundo fue increiblemente fácil.

Listened to this via Audible, awful Scottish accents really spoilt it.

I may be biased, but I absolutely eat up everything that V.E. Schwab writes. And I didn't know there were two more books after City of Ghosts until I started this book, so safe to say I was even more excited to read this when I knew I could continue on in a larger series.
V.E. Schwab sets up this greater world and enticing characters with her luscious writing style. Everything about the story (from Cassidy and her ghost friend Jacob to her paranormal investigator parents and the eclectic group of side characters) gave me Coraline vibes. I did expect more of the cat since he's on the front cover, but that's okay, I hope he will keep making appearances in the later books.
I can't wait to continue on with the series, learn more about these wonderful characters, and go on more spooky adventures.
