it’s weird cuz there’s a lot I like about this book, just even more that I don’t. It’s just SO close to being something really cool but just misses the mark. Where’s the vibrancy she boasts in the cover? I guess that’s why there’s a saying…

they should’ve made Perla find something that suggested what Ulises was really up to 😭😭 for a book meant to be about lies everything is really just straight up

trying so hard not to take this seriously

i like it! Really interesting premise, I really really hope it delivers. Needless to say the writing is quite a step down after the secret history and perks of being a wallflower, but I’m into the story enough to hold on. I just won’t take it seriously lol. It is sorta taking me out of it—how the main guy is so against war and facists. How would he be that educated? He’s lower class. idk. sorta idealist
