Zoraida Cordova's The Brooklyn Brujas Series (Labyrinth Lost & Bruja Born)

If you’re itching to get your hands on a larger reading project for the summer, try out Zoraida Cordova’s Brooklyn Brujas series. While Bruja Born came out earlier this year, starting with last year’s Labyrinth Lost will get you started on the lives of the Mortiz sisters. Bruja Born will let you keep up with their adventures, all in anticipation of next year’s finale to the trilogy. With a heavy dose of magic from Caribbean and Latin American folklore, tightly paced plots, and emotionally centered storytelling, these are fun, absorbing reads that will carry you through your vacation and beyond.
