Incredible book. Incredible story. Incredible characters. So many tears, both happy and sad. It was a privilege to learn about such a rich part of Latinx culture, and the issues of tran erasure brought up were so poignant and important to address. I'm so happy I own my copy of this because I am going to now be recommending it to everyone I talk to and probably rereading it in the future.
Graphic: Homophobia, Blood, Body horror, Child death, Deadnaming, Death, Gore, and Transphobia
It was a little bit spooky, but overall manageable for someone who doesn't do spooky things.
