Labyrinth Lost (Brooklyn Brujas Series #1)
The first book in the Latinx-infused Queer fantasy series from Zoraida Córdova, highly acclaimed author of The Inheritance of Orquídea Divina, that follows three sisters—and teen witches—as they develop their powers and battle magic through epic questing in the realms beyond.
Alex is a bruja and the most powerful witch in her family. But she's hated magic ever since it made her father disappear into thin air. So while most girls celebrate their Quinceañera, Alex prepares for her Deathday—the most important day in a bruja's life and her only opportunity to rid herself of magic.
But the curse she performs during the ceremony backfires, and her family vanishes, forcing Alex to absorb all of the magic from her family line. Left alone, Alex seeks help from Nova, a brujo with ambitions of his own.
To get her family back they must travel to Los Lagos, a land in-between, as dark as Limbo and as strange as Wonderland. And while she's there, what she discovers about herself, her powers, and her family, will change everything…

Where do you even begin when the worlds are unfamiliar (and sprawling), and you can’t fight your way through the […]
Nothing gives me joy like seeing more great representation for teens in various letters of the rainbow, especially when we get past the same old narratives in the same old genres with the same old rep. The first half of the year was rife with great LGBTQIAP+ reads—you can see 15 of them here, to […]
My own romance reading is rather varied, but I have a weakness: magic. Psychic abilities, being able to shoot fire from one’s hands, or even just mystical elements is enough for me to give a book a double take. Magic adds an extra, fantastical element to a romance as characters need to contend with their […]
Want to read a fantasy from a culture steeped in magical tradition? Then stories by Latinx authors may be the right fit for you. Latinx cultures bear the roots of magical realism, and stories from Latinx cultures often celebrate a hybrid of the magical and the realistic. When Latinx authors delve into fantasy, they often […]
