Publisher's summary

One hot summer night, best friends Lourdes, Fernanda, Ana, Perla, and Pauline hold a séance. It's all fun and games at first, but their tipsy laughter turns to terror when the flames burn straight through their prayer candles and Fernanda starts crawling toward her friends and chanting in Nahuatl, the language of their Aztec ancestors.

Over the next few weeks, shy, modest Fernanda starts acting strangely—smearing herself in black makeup, shredding her hands on rose thorns, sucking sin out of the mouths of the guilty. The local priest is convinced it's a demon, but Lourdes begins to suspect it's something else—something far more ancient and powerful.

As Father Moreno's obsession with Fernanda grows, Lourdes enlists the help of her "bruja Craft crew" and a professor, Dr. Camacho, to understand what is happening to her friend in this unholy tale of possession-gone-right.

Contains mature themes.

Feminist Chicana horror novella

Enjoyed the story and performance but definitely could have been fleshed out into a novel!

Good story of Female Empowerment

I really liked the characters and premise but it was almost too short for me. I wish there would’ve been more to it because it is a very good plot. But I did really enjoy it. Very Heathers vibes with a modern turn.

Good

This is very short. A good read however I felt like the person doing do the audio sounded a little bit…. Annoying when doing the Spanish speaking girls. Kinds of like a caricature of a Latina. I would have preferred to have read it myself but still not bad regular narration was great. Still worth it

A Quick Possession Story

This was good! I finished this in a day although it’s relatively short. It never quite gave me the chills like I like my possession stories to do, and I wish it would have been a bit longer so the characters’ culture and story could have been more developed.

One complaint is there is some sexual content that isn’t really necessary in this story. This is a personal pet peeve of mine…I’m not a prude and I don’t mind sexual content but just didn’t think it was necessary for this story.

great short story

this was a great short story, but could have easily been made into a long novel. it would be cool to see this turned into a series.

On my way to read V Castro’s backlist

This book has a fantastic story and features a great narrator. I love that I found myself routing for the demon.
