Bones and All. Hasta los huesos
by Camille DeAngelisEsta chica no rompe corazones, los devora. La novela que ha inspirado la nueva y esperada película de Timothée Chalamet es una fascinante historia sobre el primer amor y encontrar tu lugar en el mundo. Maren Yearly quiere lo mismo que cualquier chica de su edad. Quiere convertirse en alguien a quien los demás admiren y respeten. Y quiere que la quieran. Pero Maren tiene un secreto que la hace diferente, impulsos que no puede controlar. Y se odia por las cosas malas que le ha empujado a hacer, por lo que ha causado en ella y en su familia. Porque Maren no solo rompe corazones, los devora. Desde el día en que su madre le encontró en la boca un hueso del oído de la niñera cuando apenas tenía dos años, supo que la vida no sería normal para ninguna de las dos. Y cuando, el día de su decimosexto cumpleaños, su madre la abandona con un poco de dinero, una mochila y su partida de nacimiento, Maren decide lanzarse a la búsqueda del padre que nunca conoció, determinada a averiguar la clave de su origen y de por qué hace lo que hace. Enfrentada a un mundo que quizá encierre otras personas como ella, pero también la inesperada posibilidad del amor, Maren pronto se da cuenta de que a quien busca es a sí misma.
