Emma Volcan and 1 other person liked Tobias Speelmans's review of Why are you here?: "An amazing intro, which made me want to continue reading to puzzle the story together. While i read the story I could reflect parts of it on my daily life. Altough it is science fiction it could be happening right now ... :)"

Emma Volcan liked Beatriz Dominguez Gonzalez's review of Why are you here?: "The story is really captivating, mixing exciting action with strong, believable human relationships. The characters and their connections pull you in just as much as the action does, making it hard to put the book down."
