I'd call this a sci-fi/horror read for sure! The synopsis per good reads is: Grieving mother Magos cuts out a piece of her deceased eleven-year-old son Santiago’s lung. Acting on fierce maternal instinct and the dubious logic of an old folktale, she nurtures the lung until it gains sentience

One of my worst reads of the year 😵‍💫
I was thoroughly disappointed in this book and wish I could get back the time I wasted. I found myself wanting to DNF this book but didn’t because I wanted to give it a chance. I wasn’t expecting something life changing but I at least wanted to feel entertained but I honestly just feel cheated.
