De verdad, es que no tenían ningún feeling, sus escenas han sido las escenas menos apasionadas que he leído en mi vida. Los personajes son planísimos, sin evolución, cuyas acciones en la mayor parte del libro son lo más previsible del mundo.Įl romance ha sido ridículo. Esperaba muchísimo más siendo una trama de extraterrestres, pero me he encontrado con una trama llena de agujeros por todos lados e insostenible. La trama más simple no ha podido ser, sin sorpresas y para ser un libro tan corto, aburrida hasta decir basta.

¿hemos leído la misma historia? Porque no ha podido ser más POBRE en todos los sentidos. No entiendo las buenas calificaciones de este libro.
