Carme and 1 other person liked GҽɱɱαSM's review of Elles també maten: "4.1* Una antologia que fa de la veu femenina un acte de rebel·lió literària. Les autores no es limiten a ocupar espai en el gènere negre; el reivindiquen amb relats que oscil·len entre el policíac cerebral i el thriller visceral. Aquí, el crim no és u" Read more of this review »

Aquest novel·la m’ha enganxat i després dels primers dues centes pagines he sigut" Read more of this review »

En el segle XXII, hi ha la gent que han lliurat completament als robots ajudants i t" Read more of this review »

Carme liked Carlos García Cádiz's review of La mutació sentimental: "Aquesta novel·la no té res a envejar-li a llibres com "El problema dels tres cossos" o "Encontre amb Ramma".
