A review by theillumiletty
The Ghost Tracks by Celso Hurtado

3.0

I wanted to enjoy this a bit more because I always want to support Mexican American authors especially fellow Tejanos. Unfortunately, I thought it was a bit scattered and the tone was off.
SpoilerI was also hoping for more paranormal action instead of just abominable human behavior
One big positive is the main character, Erasmo (my grandfather's name!), and his friend Rat. They are two lonely, abandoned souls who found each other and rely on each other to persevere. I also loved all the San Antonio references and any book that mentions chorizo and egg tacos is a-okay with me. I will be reading the sequel for sure and hopefully that one hits the spot like a chorizo an egg taco.
