I never really was pulled into it this story, but in the spirit of never not finishing a book I slowly got through it. Our author grew up in Colombia before escaping due to political unrest. Her family possesses the gift of being healers, her grandfather, her mother, and her all share this power and must figure out how to control it. The thread that is woven through the story is that Contreras and her mother are attempting to go spread the ashes of her deceased grandfather so he can be at peace. Some parts were more engaging than others, and the photo pages spread throughout the book made for good stopping points. A unique look at the indigenous culture and how family history can be preserved and passed down generations. Some good kernels for thought but not quite the gripping story I was expecting.
