I read this for the mythologies in Latinx literature course I’m taking this semester and going into it, I wasn’t expecting it to be so intense. I think this is perfect for that transition age between middle grade and YA. I’m a big fan of sci-fi and I love how much thought was put into the plot. So well done!
