Enjoyable historical fiction centering the Latina/Indigenous experience in CO in the mining/early modern eras. It adresses the racism and misfortune embedded in the rapid expansion of the West and also offers sweet details of a woman coming into her own as she discovers her family's past. Ooh and the main character is a fortune-teller.alexisgarcia's review against another edition

Update a few days later: The ✨vibes✨ of this book (like a Western but without all the whitewashing of the actual "Old West") have really stuck with me, I think it's worth the read for that alone, plus for anyone who reads for language/prose.
Graphic: Racial slurs and Injury/Injury detail
Moderate: Racism and Violence
Minor: Sexual content
This book also contains (friendly) snakes so anyone afraid of snakes may want to avoid.
