I really loved this. It was heartfelt, it felt real, and the plot was excellent. I especially appreciated the deep love Yadriel had for his culture and his religion, and how that was reflected in the prose.

This is a book I’ll be coming back to again and again. I’m so attached to these characters and this book is everything I wanted to read rn? It’s so meaningful and impactful and oh so romantic! In more than just romance romance but also the romance of loving yourself and your family, chosen or by blood. Words cannot describe this book honestly and like all my reviews, I just don’t do it justice! But absolutely pick this up if you want to feel every emotion under the sun while still kicking your feet like a kid <3

"You ready?" Julian asked. 

"No," Yadriel confessed, his voice tight. 

Julian grinned. "Do it anyways."

The ending was actually my favourite bit and I feel all emotional after just finishing it! This was a good book with an interesting concept at its core. I think Julian was actually my favourite character, with his unbound energy and fierce love for his friends. I enjoyed all the references to latinx culture and learning more about it. I would have given the book more stars but the majority of the book is a bit slow paced and can make it hard to get into. This was my second time attempting to read it. Still, I enjoyed the narratives and the characters and will never say no to a queer paranormal romance.
