Bruja Born by Zoraida Córdova
4.0
I was excited to return to the world of the Brooklyn Brujas, and this book did not dissapoint. In Labyrinth Lost, we followed Alex as she journeyed through a dangerous land to save her family. In Bruja Born, we follow Lula as she tries to recover from her time in Los Lagos.
I think my favorite part thing in this book was the dynamics between the three sisters. Since I don't have sisters, I was fascinated with the relationship each sister has with the other and each of them has their distinct personality: Lula has a sharp tongue, Alex is the sarcastic one and Rose is the quiet one with a smart mouth.
We also find out more information about the hierarchies and organisations that run the magical community in New York, which I found a nice addition to the world-building in the story.
Something I didn't like was all the running around that didn't make a lot of sense. Lula is recovering from a mortal wound but she runs all through Manhattan like she was in a marathon. Twice. I also wanted to see more of the relationship between Nova and Alex, and Alex with Rishi. Rishi is too cool a character to be conveniently somewhere else in the story.
