An absolutely beautiful book, so beyond what I expected. The subject of grief was woven throughout and felt so real. It hurt hard and I think honestly helped me through my own grief. Timing was slightly confusing sometimes but that could be how quickly I was listening to the audiobook. The narrator did a perfect job. I truly loved this book and highly highly recommend it.

Thanks to Wednesday Books for the free copy of this book.

 - Jonny Garza Villa has another winner with CANTO CONTIGO. I adore their characters, these boys with soft hearts working through big events and bigger feelings.
- Rafie seems so prickly and hardheaded and first, but as we dig deeper into his experiences and feelings with him, we grow to love him just as much as Rey does.
- I loved the queering of mariachi in this book, too. I didn’t know much about the genre, but the book had me looking up songs and cheering for this super queer group of kids to live their dreams out loud.
