This is a fictionalized thriller hat sound so much like a memoir. The authors experience in the street played a huge role in the originality of this masterpiece. I enjoyed reading the review and of course can't wait to read the book. Congrats to the author on being the #BOTD!

Juan doesn't sound like a likeable character because of the illegal and unethical acts committed by him. But when we look at his childhood environment, it's understandable why he became what he is today.

While it can be uncomfortable and heartwrenching to discuss these topics, they are a reality in our society and I believe this book does a good job of discussing them, Thank you for your review!

I sympathize with Juan for his background. If you're not ready to be a responsible and a wise parent, Please do not bring any child to this world yet, exposing them to danger. This is a nice review.

The making of evil is a refreshing change from the usual hero story line where the protagonist has to be pure, at worst sacrificing himself to kill the antagonist instead doing it by his own hand.

This is a well written story about defective upbringing and survival. Juan had to make up for his parent's failures, getting ahead of his age as a result, and ultimately falling prey to vices and becoming a tool of evil.

This seems an interesting and informative read - this story deals with topics such as drugs, trafficking, weaponry, etc., and is set in Colombia. Thank you for the review!
The disappearance of the word "I am" is indeed the highest happiness! :)
