I didn't like this book as much as the first one in the series. The narrator changed to the older sister and I found her personality difficult to like. Even in the first book I wasn't very fond of her so I came into this with some bias. This story just made me dislike Lula even more, I found her to be whiny but she's been through a lot so I try to remind myself of that. 

The start of the book was really good. It hooked me within the first couple chapters and for a while it captured my attention. Somewhere in the middle things slowed down and I had to keep pushing myself to read but it picked up again towards the end. 

I'm really interested to see where the last book goes. I feel like the setting might be one of my favorite places, so fingers crossed!

so glad I remembered there were more books in this series! This was so delightfully creepy and heartbreaking! Major content warning for zombies, car accident, death, hospitals, severe injuries

Apparently I rated the previous Brooklyn Brujas book Labyrinth Lost 4.5 stars, even thought I remember not liking it?

I didn't have a terrible time reading this book but I don't think I'll continue reading the Brooklyn Brujas series.

Favorite Quote:

The news anchor looks somberly into the camera and speaks. "Reports confirm two teenage boys were found and pronounced dead on the scene in Coney Island, Brooklyn. Adam Silvera is on-site with the person who discovered the bodies. Adam?"

The Adam Silvera cameo . . .
