I actually didn’t expect to like this book as much as I did but I was pleasantly surprised. From the first chapter, I was shocked. The characters were interesting, the plot was a mix of mystery/ who did it and horror. I had no idea where this was going until the end was revealed and I think that the serious topics discussed like trauma, grief, racism, the cultural dislocation and finding your identity were handled well.

La verdad este libro me atrapó de principio a fin. Después de escuchar tantas reseñas del tema que trata, pensé que tal vez iba a ser demasiado gráfico al punto que no iba a poder terminarlo. Sin embargo, creo que hace una comparación con la industria ganadera muy real y también hace cierta crítica hacia aceptar el discurso del gobierno o los medios sin cuestionamiento. Después de esta lectura si siento que voy a tener que dejar la carne un tiempo. 😅

Don’t come for me!
I do think the world building is very intricate but there are so many characters, places, political agendas all at once at the beginning without context that I was playing catch up for the first 40%. I will say that I’m glad I listened to this or I would have spent all of my time just figuring out pronunciation. I also thought it was slow paced. Overall it was a meh for me, we will see how I feel about the rest of them.

I finally understand more of this book than in the beginning, I just feel I'm part of a minority that isn't 100% in love with this...

Yo amo este libro desde que lo leí en quinto grado de la escuela. Llevaba muchos años de no releerlo, y me encanta podérselo haber leído a mi hija que ahorita está en quinto grado. Ella le dio 4 estrellas y lo disfrutó mucho.

Very excited to announce that you can now download the app on Android!! Google Play approved us this afternoon :) we're still waiting on Apple and will make a big release announcement once both platforms are available.
If you're on Android, we'd love if you give us a download and leave a review. In typical non conformist PB fashion I do find it hilarious that we are available on Android before Apple; a karmic win for all our Android baddies.
Can't wait to see what everyone thinks of the app!!

I'm not sure how to feel. Like this isn't a bad book so far but it's kind of slow 🙈

Siento que al ser una historia sobre la misma autora, uno siente una necesidad de darle cinco estrellas a pesar de todo porque su vida fue extremadamente complicada y pues ha pasado muchas experiencias difíciles. En este caso, no estoy calificando su vida o su valía aquí. Nunca lo intentaría cuando estoy calificando una autobiografía. Estoy calificando el LIBRO como tal y solo el libro. Dicho esto, siento que no me atrapó. La narración del audiolibro hecha por la misma autora si le da un valor agregado al libro porque se pueden sentir sus emociones en lo que dice pero no me atrapó la manera que escribió su historia.

I think this one was cute. The curse, the blood magic and it taking place in New Orleans was interesting. I’m enjoying all of the narrations on these, but Dax’s voice was my favorite so far. I didn’t love the loose ends about Petra’s life though.
