Review of 'Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

Este es uno de esos libros en los que todos los personajes son muy profundos, emotivos y no siempre tienen sentido, hay muchas visitas al hospital, mucho drama y un poco de cringe.

Pero se lee tan fácilmente y algunas de esas reflexiones demasiado profundas me han llegado al alma de tal forma que no puedo decir que no me haya gustado.
