This book was such a good mix of mystery, horror, and folklore! I really enjoyed how engaging the prose is. The author weaves the story with both English and Spanish and includes a lot of traits from traditional Indigenous story telling that works really well. The book makes you question what is true, what "reality" really means, and I can say that I did not predict the ending!
