The Book Guide® Editor

When 12-year old Cece accidentally gets her older sister stolen by El Sombrerón, she decides to fight fire with fire and become a bruja to rescue her sister. She has to learn how to control the souls of creatures and win bruja fights, but something in her rebels against the requisite cruelty. Using compassion and love, Cece befriends and allies herself with an unlikely group of creatures, including the original Coyote, Namer of beings. With their help and her unique magic, she must find a way to defeat her enemies without losing her soul.

We loved how this story wove in Mexican myths, but even more, how Cece repeatedly found just the right and satisfying twist to solve each problem she faced. Her friendship with the criaturas and her relationship with her family was also so well-written. A thoroughly engrossing book that will fly off the shelves.

The Christmas Pig (2021)

The Christmas Pig is a heartwarming, page-turning adventure about one child's love for his most treasured thing, and how far he will go to find it. This story comes from a very good place and you can tell it. The writing is so charming, filling the quieter moments with life. Jack is adorable. I wanted to squish his cheeks just how he squishes his piggy's. It's not all cute, though; silently Rowling deals with mature themes, divorce and estrangement and change and loss biggest of all.
