The Inheritance of Orquídea Divina by Zoraida Córdova

dark mysterious medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? N/A
• Loveable characters? N/A
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? No

3.5

Zoraida Córdova’s writing style is beautiful and I enjoyed every minute of her words and the characters she created, especially Marimar and Rey. The story is very unique (although it kinda gives me evil Encanto vibes lmfao) and how magic is treated by the characters is a bit refreshing, like it’s an inconvenient mystery.
My main criticism is the how underwhelming the climax and twist villain was compared to the first three parts of the book.
