Dancing to "Almendra" by Mayra Montero
2.0
Would recommend: Probably not
Good things about this book: beautiful language, immersive atmosphere, intriguing characters and back stories.
Bad things about this book: the ending, and how it was completely disappointing.
I rarely read mysteries, so maybe I'm just not keyed in to the genre, but I sort of expected to know what the heck happened at the end of the book. Did I miss something? After getting attached to the characters, I felt like I had been cheated by the fizzled-out ending.
