Infused with Latin American traditionthe Brooklyn Brujas series follows three sistersand witchesas they develop their powers and battle magic in their hometown and worlds beyond. Rose Mortiz has always been a fixer, but lately she's been feeling lost. She has brand new powers that she doesn't understand, and her family is still trying to figure out how to function in the wake of her amnesiac father's return home. Then, on the night of her Death Day party, Rose discovers her father's memory loss has been a lie. As she rushes to his side, the two are ambushed and pulled through a portal to the land of Adas, a fairy realm hidden in the Caribbean Sea. There Rose is forced to work with a group of others to save Adas. Soon, she begins to discover the scope of her powers, the troubling truth about her father's past, and the sacrifices he made to save her sisters. But if Rose wants to return home so that she can repair her broken family, she must figure out how to heal Adas first.

Loved this conclusion (?) to the Brooklyn Brujas trilogy! Rose is such a fantastic character and her adventure is an exciting ride. The thread of family that connects and enhances all three of these books is wonderful. I‘m hoping we‘ll get a Nova book soon!

I love this! And I love how comfortably everyone seems to accept Lin‘s gender—or lack thereof.

shanaqui Ooh. Is Lin a main character? (Though I'm interested in finally reading a book by this author anyyyway, I'd be extra curious if Lin is a significant part of the book.) 3y
Clare-Dragonfly @shanaqui I‘d say Lin is an important secondary character, but not a main character. This is also the third book in a trilogy but I do highly recommend 3y

Poor December often gets short shrift as a month on its own when everyone is focusing on the end of the year! Here‘s my #wrapup and my favorite book from the month. #12booksof2020

Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick It'll be 10:30PM on December 31 and I'm like "wait...hold up... I still have time to read!" 4y

While I was organizing tags on Libby, I came across this little gem I‘d tucked away for later and saw that it was available to download, so I decided that later had become now. What a lovely ending for the series!

Now I‘m back to “clearing the decks” of 2020 books and need to finish at least two more in the next six days. A nice holiday weekend is a good opportunity to do that!

An awesome ending to a great series! Loved rose so much and all the characters. The story kept me turning the page and I didn't wanna leave this world, much like rose didn't want to leave the kingdom of adas. Every time I thought I knew where the story was going it twisted and turned. Còrdova really upped the ante in this one. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Yay! Thanks @TieDyeDude !! I didn‘t expect the extras! 😄 I love the portrait of the Mortiz sisters and the bookmark is very cute. It might end up belonging to my toddler—he loves llamas.

I was so excited to read about the third Mortiz sister, Rose, to come into her bruja powers and this didn‘t disappoint! Rose‘s is the youngest of the sisters and is a fixer but lately she has been feeling lost. On the night of her Deathday party she confronts her father and they are whisked away to the fairy realm, Adas.

Great story filled with high packed adventure with amazing and diverse characters!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Currently reading tagged book and there are so many little errors like using “my” instead of “me” (see underlined yellow part of pic). Usually this wouldn‘t annoy me but there have been a lot more than I normally find.

Did anyone else notice this while reading this book?

Mehso-so

*sigh* I wanted so much more than I ended up with. Rose, the youngest Mortiz sister, asks the Deos for the truth at her Deathday party and gets more than she bargained for. I felt like there was little, if any, resolution to what Rose's actual power is. The end gift wrapped itself into vague 2 page chapters. I have more questions than answers and I hope there's more coming. The typos in this book were so awfully distracting too.

I‘m very excited for the third book in the Brooklyn Brujas series! The third sister is very intriguing. It just came out so I don‘t know if I‘ll get my hold in time for Latinx Heritage Month, but maybe my hold on Mexican Gothic will come in instead! #integrateyourshelf

ChasingOm I loved the first book but didn‘t pick up the second. Now that all three are out, I may start from the beginning. 😄 4y
Clare-Dragonfly @ChasingOm Good idea! I didn‘t like the second book as much as the first, but it was also good. 4y
alisiakae I have a hold in for Mexican gothic too! I‘ve been waiting for 3 weeks with the hope that it will come in by the end of Oct. 4y

I haven‘t decided if I‘m caffeinated enough to attend yet...but I thought some swap participants might be interested! #basicwitchswap #hauntedhollowswap

monalyisha I missed the keynote yesterday by Kiley Reid & I‘m kicking myself. I bet it was great. 4y
monalyisha Update: I went it & was more fun than I anticipated! Definitely check out a later event, if you can. At the very least, you‘ll probably end up adding to your TBR (like any of us really need that 😅🙈). 4y
