Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for an advanced copy in exchange for my honest review!

This is such a good graphic novel! The first thing I noticed was that this novel is much longer than the standard graphic novel, and I am so glad for it. The length really gives the story space to breathe, in both fleshing out its characters and keeping up the suspense and mystery. Kat is the co-host of a podcast called Paranormal Texas, and after receiving an email tip about a mysterious small town out in the middle of nowhere called Estrella Roja, she goes to investigate. While Kat is on her way to Estrella Roja, the other main character, Mari, is headed there too. She is going back to Estrella Roja, the town she was born in, to attend the funeral of her Abuela. Both girls discover that the townsfolk aren't too keen on outsiders, and the Castillo family is downright hostile. I really enjoyed both main characters and how they were written! Kat is bubbly and loud, whilst Mari is calmer and quieter, but they work together in an excellent way. I do like that they're both opposite but similar at the same time. Watching them unravel the mystery of Estrella Roja was a treat. I also liked that while they both wanted the truth, they were for different reasons. Mari, to know the truth of her past and her family's past, and for Kat to know why Estrella Roja is how it is today. The ending was so good! I really loved the twists and reveals, and how it made everything that happened in prior chapters click into place. I also adore that a vast majority of the cast is queer! Being able to read a spooky paranormal story whilst also having a diverse and queer cast is so nice.
