su mamá llegó… no puedo seguir, nunca volveré a abrir este libro, no puedo afrontar esto

This is one of those times I wish GR allowed half stars. I would give it a 1.5, but now I have to decide whether to round up or down and I usually round down. I want to give the author credit for attempting to take the subject matter seriously and not fetishizing or smuttifying incest, but the terrible prose kept ME from taking it seriously. The second half was better than the first, but nothing was actually good.

I should’ve just listened to myself and left it as DNF. Author uses the same plot device more than once and the prose is bad, hilariously so, especially in Lochan’s POV. He’s still the better character, though as at least he understands his relationship with his sister is a ticking time bomb and will have devastating consequences. Maya just doesn’t get it (BIZARRE) and comes off as dangerously immature.
