The best part about this book was the characters and the relationship between them. I loved Lucelly and Syd's frienship. Syd is my favorite, she was so sassy and such a good friend. I loved Babette as well as Lucelly's ghost family, they were so fun to read about.

I think it's great that in this book there are adults who actually believe and help the girls and the girls are smart enough to accept the help and not try to do everything on their own, which is something that has been missing from a lot of the middle grade books I have been reading lately.

Another great thing about this book is how unapologetically Latinx it is, from the food to the music to the chanclas and finally to the Dominican Folklore.
