It started slowly, but once the story started picking up it was like a runaway train.

Written from Carmen's POV I thought it gave her much more depth, rather than just being a Segunda, she was a young woman who had lost her family for a cause and on her return it had lost its way. The last few chapters really made it for me - although it was perhaps almost too happy an ending.

Pros: feminist, queer, latinx
Cons: too slow to get going and perhaps a bit too easy on everyone in the end.. But I think since it's YA I have to concede misery doesn't have to be the outcome.

4.5 stars

Fun and exciting, with an interesting setting, but not the best-written stuff I've read. Enjoyable though.
