Telling the story of a trio of Brooklyn-born Latinx sisters-Alex, Lula, and Rose Mórtiz, respectively-Córdova’s ‘Brooklyn Brujas’ series weaves in all the elements of YA fiction (sibling rivalry, first loves, and overarching family drama) with some truly otherworldly creatures, concepts, and realms. Since then, I’ve gone on to round the trilogy by reading Bruja Born (2018) and Wayward Witch (2020). I typically don’t go in for YA fiction, but rules are made to be broken, right? That’s how I felt when I read Labyrinth Lost (2016), the first book in Zoraida Córdova’s ‘Brooklyn Brujas’ Series, some two years ago now for an article on OZY.
