Honestly, it’s pretty tame for a horror story. I did love Montserrat and Tristán as characters, but that’s about as far as my praise goes. I think the concept of magic in this story was interesting and thoughtful, but something about it felt too convenient. I enjoyed doing a buddy read, though!

It seems like the “big fight” at the end was barely a fight at all. It was almost like you knew the protagonists would come out on top. And no way in hell Montserrat and Tristán should have gotten together romantically in the end. NOT after all of these years.
