El giro de una carta puede cambiar tu destino en esta aventura para jóvenes lectores, basada en el juego de cartas Lotería y perfecta para los fanáticos de la película Coco. Mientras busca a su primo que ha desaparecido, una joven es transportada a un reino mítico donde se enreda en un peligroso juego de azar."Un cuento mágico y filosófico arraigado en la tradición mexicana". --School Library Journal, reseña destacada A la hora más calurosa del día más caluroso del año, un fatídico viento sopla sobre la ciudad de Oaxaca silba mientras recorre las calles empedradas y susurra los árboles de jacaranda antes de deslizarse por la ventana de una niña de once años llamada Clara. Sin que ella lo sepa, Clara ha sido marcada para la Lotería. La Vida y la Muerte se reparten los naipes de la Lotería una vez al año, y lo que está en juego es algo muy grande. Cada carta revela un nuevo giro en el destino de Clara: un escorpión, una flecha, una rosa tan roja como la sangre. Si la vida gana, Clara vivirá hasta una edad avanzada. Si la muerte prevalece, ella se apagará como se apaga una vela. Pero Clara desconoce todo esto. Lo único que ella sabe es que su primo Esteban ha desaparecido, y hará lo que sea por salvarlo, hasta viajar al mítico Reino de Las Pozas, donde cada acción tiene un precio, y cada decisión tiene consecuencias. Y aunque parezca que su destino está sellado, Clara podría tener lo necesario para romper el juego y elegir un nuevo camino. Karla Arenas Valenti teje una aventura llena de magia y mitología, donde explora la noción de libre albedrío en un mundo donde el destino es dueño de todas las cartas. La novela está regiamente ilustrada por Dana Sanmar. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The turn of a card could change your destiny in this captivating middle grade adventure based on the Lotería card game, perfect for fans of Coco. While searching for her missing cousin, a young girl is transported to a mythical kingdom, becoming entangled in a perilous game of chance. "A magical, philosophical tale rooted in Mexican lore." --School Library Journal, starred review. In the hottest hour of the hottest day of the year, a fateful wind blows into Oaxaca City. It whistles down cobbled streets and rustles the jacaranda trees before slipping into the window of an eleven-year-old girl named Clara. Unbeknownst to her, Clara has been marked for la Lotería. Life and Death deal the Lotería cards once a year, and the stakes could not be higher. Every card reveals a new twist in Clara's fate--a scorpion, an arrow, a blood-red rose. If Life wins, Clara will live to a ripe old age. If Death prevails, she'll flicker out like a candle. But Clara knows none of this. All she knows is that her young cousin, Esteban, has vanished, and she'll do whatever it takes to save him, traveling to the mythical Kingdom of las Pozas, where every action has a price, and every choice has consequences. And though it seems her fate is sealed, Clara just might have what it takes to shatter the game and choose a new path. Karla Arenas Valenti weaves an adventure steeped in magic and mythology--gorgeously illustrated by Dana Sanmar--exploring the notion of free will in a world where fate holds all the
cards.

Good start to a series
Format: Kindle
I delayed reading the series for reasons I don’t remember. But my TBR list is huge so I thought I’d take a shot of this and I was pleasantly surprised. I didn’t think the blurb about it was anything special. But it was a very good book. It took some interesting twists and turns. I am so glad the second book is already out. Because I would not have waited patiently. Very slow burn but good storyline. 🔥🔥/5

A good read
Format: Kindle
Multiple points of view. 3 Alpha men and an Omega male. She is a Beta in training for a new program placing betas in Alpha/Omega packs. Mila is only doing the program for the money to take care of her dad. She wasn't expecting to fall for a pack but when she sees this packs Omega she is done for. There is just something about him. His Alphas are good looking as well. Too bad she is hiding a secret and their government is acting shady. I liked it and can't wait to see where their story goes.

Slightly repetitive but I did love some things
Format: Kindle
I love this type of story. And omegaverse is one of my all time favorite genres. But there are a few things that pulled me out of my enjoyment while I was reading. It was repetitive at times as well as struggled with telling not showing. So we didn’t always feel like we were experiencing things with the main character. There were also some plot holes but they may still be answered in part 2.
Now this isn’t to be said I didn’t enjoy parts of the story. I loved the almost instant love between Mila and Oliver. And how he started changing around her.

What a delightful read. The characters are awesome, the plot was so good, I loved it. I was intrigued and it kept me wanting more. Told in multiple pov, the book sucks you in and doesn’t let go. I cannot wait to read the next book.

not bad
Format: Kindle
I loved the plot of this book. The characters just didn’t have a lot of depth. The connections and “love” just weren’t communicated very well in the writing. The author didn’t write the sweet psycho trope very well at all either. Lachlan was just a mess of a character.
