The Spirit Glass by Roshani Chokshi
4.0
“Librarians can be very dangerous creatures. It’s not merely that they know where knowledge lives; it’s that they possess a second voice that, when they choose to use it, coaxes out your deepest secrets.” ~Corazon in The Spirit Glass by Roshani Chokshi
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“Pain is the price we pay to live.”
There are so many quotes in this book that has found a place in my heart. The Spirit Glass is a beautifully blended tale with Filipino mythology and family history and stories.
Corazon is prepared to become a Babaylan in the hopes to bring her parents back to life after they tragically died three years before. However, after her soul key is stolen, she must go one a quest to make a new one, unlock her powers, and fix the unbalance between the spirit and mortal realms. But, on her quest with her anito, spirit companion, Saso the blood thirsty gecko and her new ghost friend, Corazon learns the truth about the ghost she chases and the secrets of her powers.
I highly recommend this book. It is a tale with twists that may leave you crying. Corazon is a spirited girl who is determined to bring back her parents. She isn’t fearless, but knows that if she doesn’t do this quest that the consequences would be severe. Saso was by far my favorite character! He was hilarious and there were many times I laughed out loud because of his sudden reactions.
Add this to your never ending TBR! You won’t regret it.
