A review by tammie_2207
The Way to Rio Luna by Zoraida Córdova
3.0
Read- August 2020 for the N.E.W.Ts (My A in Transfiguration- Animal on the cover)
- I haven't had the best experience with Zoraida Cordova as an author (I've been trying to get through Incendiary for months) so I was a bit nervous going into this book because I didn't know how I would feel about it but I ended up actually enjoying it.
Siblings Danny and Pili have been in the foster care system for years. Always being passed from group home to group home, family to family, group home to family and back to group home. There have been together their whole lives but Danny is sent to live with a family by himself and whilst he is there Pili leaves the group home and can't be found. Everyone keeps telling him that she is a runaway but he doesn't believe it, he knows that Pili is waiting for him in Rio Luna. The island from their favourite stories.
He believes in the magic for years but he has started to give up hope. His faith is dimming. He goes on a school trip to a library and just as he is beginning to lose hope he discovers a mysterious book that leads him on a magical journey, one that might take him back to his sister.
