Lobizona by Romina Garber

3.0

Lobizona by Romani Garber has me feeling all kinds of things. I honestly don't know how I feel. Part of me really liked it, especially after I hit the 48% mark but then the ending happened and I'm confused. Please don't come here to explain to me, I got it, I just don't know. I'm so conflicted. I think the best way to review this book is with a list of what I like and what I did not like.
Things I dislike:
Even though the ending took a big chunk of pages it all felt rushed. Also, what the hell happened? So much happened and so fast that I feel we didn't get enough time to process it.
The synopsis and title spoils it. Also, people reviewing it PLEASE stop spoiling it.
A big part of this is predictable probably because of the tropes used.
The reasoning behind Cata and the guy whose name I already forgot's relationship.
The romance.
I feel like the author tried to add too many social commentaries and didn't give it enough time to develop.
I feel like the characters were one dimensional.
The plot twist seemed to happen out of nowhere. I see you, Fierro.

Things I like:
The immigrant representation
The school
How immersive the story was.
The Latinx representation
Manu's eyes and I mean it in a literal sense.
The cover

Taking my likes and dislikes into consideration I think I would give it 3.5 stars.

Rating: 3.5
