Fun.   Much more tied in to book 1 than I expected; would have preferred a more separate, stand alone, new story.

3.5⭐️I think the write does an excellent job translating the Spanish/weaving it in such a way that there’s little redundancy. There are some words that are not translated, but there are context clues aplenty, so I’m very glad she didn’t dumb it down.

Looking forward to the next one!
