This was fine?! It had a great premise: what if the Fyre Festival but in a YA book with more creature horror? There were some errors in the text like the MC calling her friend by her own name and it dragged in some places. Also, the MC's identity as Peruvian-American/first generation seemed like a thin veneer of the pressure to be a doctor or a lawyer and then . . . nothing else? This book isn't about Latina identity but the characterization seemed an after thought. Take my review with a large, white grain of salt.
