Your opinion
What did you like best/least?
The only part that I liked of the book was the shop of drugs because there is a very big mystery in that place.
The part that I hate is the final because I can't understand anything, and also because it is so boring.
Was it funny?Why?
No, because I think this book is so boring, because I like books about detectives and I think this book is very boring.
Would you like change anything in your tale(s)?What?
Yes, if I could, I would change the parts that the characters are always talking and nothing happens.
Lexicon&Grammatical
The words that I think that are strange are: Hullo=Hello and the names of strange places.
