Calling All Book Lovers & Brujitas-in-Training
I’m still looking for Beta Readers for The Ordinary Bruja—my latest novel steeped in ancestral magic, psychological twists, and the kind of grief that lingers like a whisper in the dark.
If you love atmospheric reads with powerful female leads, complicated mother-daughter bonds, and that ni de aquí ni de allá energy, this one’s for you.
Think:

In 'The Ordinary Bruja,' readers will find a unique blend of psychological horror and magical realism. The novel delves into themes such as ancestral trauma, the complexities of identity, and the struggles of feeling neither fully American nor Latina. These elements are complemented by a central plot that revolves around a young girl grappling with her potential and the shadows of her past. As the narrative unfolds, it challenges societal norms, explores cultural reclamation, and touches on the nuances of queerness. The recent categorization of the story as 'social horror' highlights its exploration of real fears—those of being marginalized and unheard. This genre serves not just to entertain, but to resonate with readers’ lived experiences, making it a significant contribution to contemporary literature. With elements of magic that weave through generations, 'The Ordinary Bruja' encourages readers to reflect on their own identities. This call for Beta Readers isn't just about feedback—it's an invitation for those who appreciate nuanced storytelling to be part of a journey that is both personal and universal. If you're drawn to atmospheric tales filled with depth and character-driven narratives, you won't want to miss this captivating exploration of what it means to inhabit multiple identities while facing the haunting whispers of the past.
