The translator did a great job of showcasing the scenery and the children's interactions with the world around them, which allows me to further see the beauty of novels like these. I will say, the Spanish edition hit me harder emotionally, but both editions are very much worth the read! (  ) Griffin_Reads | Jun 29, 2023 | This book is one of my all-time favorites. Not only does it have the beautiful scenery descriptions of a classic gothic novel, it also shows the beauty of friendship and grief through the lens of a child. I first read the Spanish edition in one of my university classes, and we were able to have several deep discussions on it, not only surrounding guesses on what will happen next, but on the character's actions and how they relate to one another. It is a book that lives rent free in my head all the time, and it deserves its place there. ( ) Griffin_Reads | Jun 29, 2023 | no reviews | add a review

Their curiosity leads them down a dangerous path, and they discover a decades-old conspiracy that puts their lives in the hands of forces more sinister and mystical than they could have believed possible"-- No library descriptions found.
