This story is dense. It spans years and years filled with magical adventures, but combined with a slow pace, it was difficult to get through. The writing is stunning and I loved the diverse cast of characters, the look into differing prespectives and lives. I saved many quotes from Eva Luna, but I would suggest reading something fast-paced alongside it.
Moderate: Child abuse, Confinement, Genocide, Infidelity, Racial slurs, Sexism, Suicide, Transphobia, Violence, Grief, Death of parent, Murder, and Classism
