Thank you to NetGalley and Random House for the copy of this e-arc for my honest review.
Wow, this story packs a punch. The author draws you in from the first chapter. I immediately connected to the main character and loved the generational history of her family, as well as the horror. The chapters were nicely broken down to read more about history of Alejandra's family and the folklore surrounding this entity. I loved getting to know about Mexican folklore. Just be aware of the trigger warnings of mental health and suicide.
The cover is absolutely gorgeous, loved the strong female characters and I will be sure to check out V. Castro back-list of books. 5 Stars
