Hello Darlings!
I know I said I’m not doing weekly memes this year but I’m also not doing any anticipated releases type posts so I thought I’ll bring this one back to gush about the books which are not out yet!
I actually have the eARC of this book and will probably start it soon but it will be available in June!
It has a pretty cover, a trans Latino MC, a ghost bad boy LI and mystery solving!
Can you guess it yet?
Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme created by Breaking the Spine that spotlights upcoming releases.

⚞ SUMMARY ⚟
Yadriel has summoned a ghost, and now he can’t get rid of him.
When his traditional Latinx family has problems accepting his gender, Yadriel becomes determined to prove himself a real brujo. With the help of his cousin and best friend Maritza, he performs the ritual himself, and then sets out to find the ghost of his murdered cousin and set it free.
However, the ghost he summons is actually Julian Diaz, the school’s resident bad boy, and Julian is not about to go quietly into death. He’s determined to find out what happened and tie up some loose ends before he leaves. Left with no choice, Yadriel agrees to help Julian, so that they can both get what they want. But the longer Yadriel spends with Julian, the less he wants to let him leave.
⚞ WHY I WANT TO READ THIS BOOK?? ⚟
So, we have
- all this dead people aesthetic,
- a murder mystery
- AND a gay hate to love romance??
Yes, I am READY!!
But most of all, it sounds FUN AS HECK and I somehow didn’t read much of those lately.
Time to fix that!
Okay, this made me laugh, because your one-line summary of it totally caught my attention, and I never even thought of this book. But yes, OMG, doesn’t it sound fabulous?! I’ve got an ARC, and I’m so excited to start it, because it sounds wonderful.

Haha! I have the eARC as well and I want to start it right after I finish another one, too! I’m so excited! I hope there will be some revivifying involved though because I can’t have my ship half dead!! 😀

YAS I totally guessed right! I so wish I could get an eARC of this because I can’t wait to read it. I’ve seen this cover EVERYWHERE and it’s giving me super *grabby hands* feels LOL 🤣

Ah, I’m highly anticipating this one too!!! I haven’t read a lot of books with trans or Latinx rep, which makes me sad, so I’m excited to pick up this one. Also, I already hardcore ship Yadriel and Julian from the synopsis?? Like, the school bad boy and a brujo? Sign me up!! seriously, this book is in my top two most anticipated releases for the entire 2020!

Same, I need to read more trans & Latinx rep! I’m currently catching up on my eARC of Deep & Darkest Red so I hopefully am on the right track 😀
Right?? They have a great energy and the author’s twitter is only fueling my shipper’s heart!! ❤
