Un par de cuentos excelentes. Los demás parecen repetirse sin más. Me quedo con sus obras anteriores.

This is my least favourite Mariana Enríquez so far, I don't know but I didn't connect the same way I did with her previous work. But I must say that the first four stories I really liked but it was such a pity the rest weren't half as good.
