520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc "To everyone who knows them, best friends Miel and Sam are as strange as they are inseparable. Roses grow out of Miel's wrist, and rumors say that she spilled out of a water tower when she was five. Sam is known for the moons he paints and hangs in the trees and for how little anyone knows about his life before he and his mother moved to town. But as odd as everyone considers Miel and Sam, even they stay away from the Bonner girls, four beautiful sisters rumored to be witches. Now they want the roses that grow from Miel's skin, convinced that their scent can make anyone fall in love. And they're willing to use every secret Miel has fought to protect to make sure she gives them up"--
520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc No one thinks twice about the friendship between Miel, the Latina teen who fears pumpkins and grows roses from her wrist, and Samir, the Italian-Pakistani boy who hangs his painted moons all around town and brought Miel home when she appeared from inside a water tower as a child. They are linked by their strangeness and bound to each other by their secrets--those that transgender Sam shares about his body and his name and those that Miel keeps about her family and her past. But just as the pair's bond expands to passion, the Bonner girls, who are rumored to have the power to make anyone fall in love with them, decide that Miel's roses are the only thing that will repair their weakening influence over others, and the four white sisters will leverage every secret that haunts Miel and that could destroy Sam to get what they want. Luxurious language infused with Spanish phrases, Latin lunar geography, and Pakistani traditions is so rich it lingers on the tongue, and the presence of magic is effortlessly woven into a web of prose that languidly unfolds to reveal the complexities of gender, culture, family, and self.
520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc This is, ultimately, a book of friendship and love between the Latina Miel and Samir, an Italian-Pakistani trans boy.
520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
