"I wanted to rock back and forth in her lap, but she was more than a ghost, she was veins of lightning, she was white swirling clouds, she was pollen sticking to the legs of honeybees."

Itzá blew me away! I'm so in love with the stunningly poetic, savory storytelling from Rios de la Luz. 

This novella about generations of water witches was haunting, beautiful and painfully raw. It was simply magical.

OOF.

I highlighted so many passages that touched my soul. Itzá has become a new favorite!
