First, I highly recommend this for teens/YAs - or for adults who really like teen/YA. It is a fast-paced book with important themes and topics, romance, and conflict. My personal enjoyment was mixed because I was eating up the Argentine mythology and issues woven throughout, but struggled with the characters' actions and dialogue (read: a lot of angst, impulsive decisions, first love romance). I do think this is an underread YA book and even though I'm not highlighting its pros as much as my cons, I think it should be recommended more.

With the first book I was hooked from the beginning but this one was a little harder to get into. Partly because I couldn't remember the first book well (which is making me rethink my 5 stars for that one) and partly because it was TOO expositional of what I already knew. However, the story is just as easy to get invested in as the first one. The emotive writing, magical setting, and bookish references will keep me coming back for more. Although I hope the third book has a better ending !
