It&#8217;s set in the world of <i>Blade Runner<\/i> and yet it isn&#8217;t.  The main character is Bruna Husky, a replicant, a technohuman who ritualistically counts down the days of her inevitable demise:  4 years, two months, twenty-one days.  She&#8217;s a tough, flawed character thrust into solving a murder spree of replicants.  Obviously, her little search leads her towards something more.<\/p>\n<p>I wonder what it would have been like to read this in English.  Montero&#8217;s descriptions are detailed and humorous.  I know I lost something in my own translation, but as a whole, it&#8217;s such a fun read.  I enjoy a good sci-fi mystery, and this has it all.<\/p>\n<p>My only complaint is that it wrapped up all too neatly.  I&#8217;m wondering if this isn&#8217;t the last that we&#8217;ve read of Bruna Husky.  I hope not.<\/p>\n<p>      <a href=\"\/%22http:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/review\/show\/514168214%22\">View all my reviews<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>L\u00e1grimas en la lluvia by Rosa Montero My rating: 4 of 5 stars There&#8217;s a lot to love about this book.
