I really enjoyed this graphic novel while I read it. The relationship between the sisters and the tie-in with ghosts and serious illnesses was well done. Plus the coloring was so lush and gorgeous. I really like when graphic novels aren't afraid of color. However, when I finished I looked at reviews and noticed there was a lot of pushback about how the author handled Dia de Los Muertos and also pacifying Spanish missions that have a history of brutality towards indigenous/Native American people. All of this left a bit of a bitter aftertaste in my mouth. From what I can tell, the author is white, and while I deeply appreciate white authors creating books with more diverse characters (I think the protagonist's dad is the only white person in the story? And even then, I can't tell), it goes to show how it important it is to have diversity in editing, not just writing.
