Never Look Back by Lilliam Rivera

4.0

A beautiful Latinx retelling of the Orpheus and Eurydice myth that does a really nice job weaving together the original story with modern updates. In case you're worried about how this book will end, like I was, let me go ahead and give you a minor spoiler that Rivera manages to give both a faithful retelling and a satisfying interpretation, saving this YA novel from a tragic ending. Pheus and Eury are both interesting characters and the romance between them is very sweet.
