Title: Infantilising pap
Review: This is the emperor's new clothers of recent book successes. Its appeal is the same lazy, infantilising escapism that has driven many adults to reading trash like Harry Potter with herd-like conformism. The writing is stale, even when describing the drearily fantastical, and shows a Disneyfied Barcelona akin to the London of Mary Poppins. My toes curl when I hear intelligent people gush praise over this schlock.Of course, as with all negative reviews on Amazon, this one will be judged "unhelpful" by those wishing to confirm their conformist hunch. But I hope a few among you won't waste your precious life with this cartoonish pap when the masterpieces of the Spanish-language canon sit unopened on your shelves, or are just a click away on Amazon.
