The marketing said if you love Paola Santiago series you'll love this. I love Paola Santiago and I picked this book up, and It didn't disappoint me.

It's my bad but I didn't realise it was a second installment of a series. It was quite confusing at first but as I went through the pages I can imagine what the first book was about.

It's been a while since I read a middle grade book and I enjoyed it. I love the culture exploration, the family dynamic, the mystery and siblings/ best friends frenemies. 

I love how it explored the sentiment and judgement of superstition and culture around Mexican families. 

I didn't prepare that it's going to be so angst at the end of the book :(((

I definitely would pick up the book once it's released. 

If you love middle grade fantasy rich with cultures and coming of age, give it a go.
