Is Cemetery Boys Worth Reading?
by Aiden Thomas
Ada’s Score
Aiden Thomas's debut YA paranormal romance follows Yadriel, a young bruja determined to prove himself to his traditional Latinx family by summoning the ghost of a murdered classmate — but accidentally summons Julian Dìaz, the school's infamous bad boy, instead. What begins as a bargain between the living and the dead slowly becomes something neither expected. The novel joyfully centers trans and gay identity within a richly imagined world of Mexican folk magic and family loyalty. Warm, funny, and emotionally resonant, it's a love story that insists on being seen.
“Delightful and warm-hearted — this ghost story is really a love letter to being seen, bones and all.”
