Malas by Marcela Fuentes
4.0

finished copy and ALC gifted by the publisher

following one family living on the Texas-Mexico border and a curse reverberating across generations, MALAS is a passion and revenge-filled duo-POV. I love the atmospheric writing in the 50s, whereas the Y2K timeline is more YA. The themes of generational grief, breaking the cycle of trauma, and how we make peace with the past to embrace our future are what I love most about MALAS. This book pairs well with THE DJINN WAITS A HUNDRED YEARS (Shubnum Khan).
