My Opinion:

While the first chapter was difficult to read, it changes quickly and becomes really interesting and fun.

The beginning, for my liking, is way too over-dramatized. Too much description to the point where the plot is lost. It's hard to follow the narrator because of all the descriptive writing. But this changes in chapter 2, and we also get the first real conversations with other humans, which also helps to understand the motives and actions of the protagonists.

Another criticism could be the missing paragraphs, but I'm not quite sure if this is just a mistake.

On the positive side, I have to say that my favorite character is and probably always will be the horse of the protagonist. Because while so much is happening around them, it is just so brutally unbothered by anything - I love it!

I also love the relationship development between Kerioth and Emmanuel, the main protagonists. Especially with all the twists and changes between them. They are just chefs' kiss!

So if you like a good bible gay retelling, this book could be your next!

*about the score: I rate my personal liking. Most likely considering writing style, plot, and world/character lore and relatability. If I read something with our world history, I may also look at the accuracy.

23:13 p. m.,

“hora de pedir un deseo” alguien susurró,

me cuestioné qué pedir,

entre tantos embrollos no supe qué decir,

millones de problemas y solo deseo para cumplir;

“que todo esté bien” musité.

2:14 a. m.,

algo se rompió,

quizá el tiempo,

quizá yo.

5:15 a. m.,

abrí los ojos,

nada cambió,

mi esperanza se quebró,

“los deseos no son más que falsas ilusiones” el silencio comentó,

y yo lo supe,

nada eso de existía,

solo era una maldita costumbre.
