Leer esta saga es para mí lo más parecido a hacer algo que sabes que no te sienta bien, pero que no puedes dejar de hacer, como un atracón de comida grasienta de noche que luego lamentas a las 3 de la mañana pero, caramba, qué rico estaba en su momento.
Porque joder si es dura de leer. Las tramas que rodean a Edward resultan vomitivas, en este libro aún más que en el primero, las de Hugh y Sybil son dolorosísimas y de Rupert, Clary y Zoë mejor ya ni hablo.
Lo que decía: es una historia que no puedes parar de leer aún a costa de tu salud mental, porque esta es una saga familiar de personajes sufrientes que, para bien o para mal, te arrastran con ellos. En este momento de mi vida, diría que más para mal que para bien, así que ya continuaré cuando me vea con fuerzas.

The book is of high quality. I found the writing and storytelling style to be enjoyable. It was both consistent and well-read. The characters were created and written with great skill. The amount of space given to each character was perfect.

monazaneefer's review against another edition
Rating: ★★★★☆ (4 stars)
Format: Audible/Physical copy
I honestly wish this centered more on the Rupert Cazalet family - I love him, Zoe, Clary, Neville and anybody by extension (like Archie, Roddy and even Juliet). But given that as we get along the series, we'll be focusing more and more on the kids, does it mean we won't see more of Rupert and Zoe later?
