The Storytellers Death was an immersive read through beautiful descriptions of Isla’s environment in Puerto Rico, her successful/fruitless encounters and the eye opening relationship with her family. I loved the magical aspect of this mystery/family saga. I enjoyed Islas character and how she copes with learning about her families stance on many racial/class issues as well as how people in town view her and her family. The dialogue and interactions with her family reminded me a bit of my own. It was a very engaging, relatable read for me. The narrator Marisol  Ramirez was amazing. I enjoyed every minute of it.
