Wow, this was hard to put down! I was on the edge of my seat right from the beginning. Which, by the way, was such a strong and captivating first chapter! There were a few scenes, including the end of that first chapter, that were just soooooo creepy and jaw dropping! I had to look away for a moment for a couple of them, especially that scene with Ron (if you know, you know). 

Of them all, Quauhtli was definitely my favorite, he was just so cozy. Yoltzi was just plain loveable, in my opinion. And Izel was relatable and she really grew up by the end. I was surprised she became so involved given how uninvolved she was at first.
