I would really recommend this book but do check the trigger warnings, if some topics are an issue for you.
(Just my soapbox but I think this book is very firmly magical realism, not fantasy, and honestly that a book can't be both in the fantasy and magical realism genres, they both have magic but the fundamentals contradict one another.)
