Do you know when you read a book from a series that you totally forgot that you actually love about it? Yeah, that happened to me when I read Bruja Born, holy molly, I love, love these books....okay, okay...let me get to the review.
Bruja Born by Zoraida Cordova
Lula Mortiz may be a bruja with healing powers, but after her family's battle in Los Lagos, she feels broken in a way she can't seem to fix. Then tragedy strikes when a bus crash leaves her friends and her boyfriend, Maks, dead. Desperate to reclaim normalcy, Lula invokes a dark spell to bring Maks back. It isn't until she hears that all of the bodies from the crash have gone missing that she realizes something is wrong. Lula has unwittingly raised an army of casi muertos--creatures between the living and dead--and they're hungry for freedom...which they can only achieve if Lula dies.
******************************************************
The Mortiz sisters, if you haven't read the first book in this trilogy, please go do yourself a favor and go read the first book (Labyrinth Lost) now. And then come back and let's discuss this one. But back to the Mortiz's sisters, these girls are amazing, first of all, but they are also tight, they will do anything for each other and this book proves it again how much they love each other and how far they go to help each other when needed.
Lula is the oldest sister and after what happened on the last book she hasn't been the same, she is withdrawn from her sisters and from everyone pretty much. But what she didn't expect to happen was the tragedy that happens to her boyfriend and friends which leaves most of them dead. She becomes desperate and asks for her sisters help and together they invoke a spell to bring Maks back. But, when all the dead bodies of all her friends mysteriously disappears, she starts to realize that something is wrong and then she finds out that she has risen an army of casi muertos which are creatures between the living and the dead. But, that's isn't the worse, the casi muertos will not stop until Lula dies, that way they will be able to live free for ever.
Lula will have to realize that once again will need the help of not only her sisters but her whole family to make the casi muertos go away, but at what cost? Because there is always a cost, right?
Lula has always been the bad ass sister and she proves it in this book, there is action, family drama and romance and magic,ah...what else could I have asked for it? I just cannot wait for the next book, because the little sister's power is proving to be so much more than we all thought and I cannot wait to see what troubles she is going to cause lol.
5 out of 5 stars...
I got a free copy of this book from NetGgalley.
XOXO,
