- RIVER WOMAN, RIVER DEMON had me on the edge of my seat. I love a thriller with a bit of a fantasy edge, and this book delivers as Eva tries to use her bruja powers to sort out the truth.
- Eva makes so many bad choices that I can see why some readers may not like this book. I’m here for hot mess women characters though, especially when it’s in a thriller that doesn’t center rich white people.
- When the answer was revealed, even though I had my suspicions about that character, I still felt a literal chill run down my spine.
