I personally did not like Lulu in the beginning but then she grew on me, I started to emphasize with her. I was deeply engrossed in Pilar’s story. The author does an amazing job writing realistic characters. I loved seeing all the connections entwine the past and present. The air of mystery was compelling and the curse was a deeply complex component in this family saga. I enjoyed the immersion of Mexican and Tejano culture. There were many references to Mexican music and other genres it was fun to play the song as a I read along. One of the final chapters was truly iconic I felt like I was there! There was a lot to ponder when I finished the book.
