4/5 stars! Let me preface my review by sharing that I am not the audience for this story. As a grown-up, I don't think I am the target audience for this story. That being said, I would absolutely recommend this book to my nieces and nephews in middle school. This is a Cuban-American middle-grade fantasy story with a strong young lady taking front and center. Paloma is a gritty main character who idolizes her grandmother and wants to lend her psychic skills to the same profession. But as in all good stories, things go off script and Paloma is left struggling to pick up the pieces and find a way to make the best of a bad situation. Filled with a cast of enjoyable characters, this story has the makings of a great young read. It speaks to themes of family, friendship, trust, and strength and would likely be inspiring for readers from 8-14 years old.
