As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting a warm glow over my cozy reading nook in the garden, I embarked on a captivating journey with Cemetery Boys audiobook by Aiden Thomas. The gentle rustling of leaves and distant chirping of birds provided a serene backdrop for this spellbinding tale.

The story follows Yadriel, a transgender boy seeking acceptance from his traditional Latinx family by proving himself as a brujo. When he accidentally summons the ghost of Julian, an enigmatic and snarky spirit, along with his cousin Maritza, they set out on an adventure to uncover the truth and free Julian’s soul. The narrative beautifully weaves together themes of identity, family bonds, and the supernatural, offering a poignant exploration of LGBTQ+ experiences within Latinx culture.

Aiden Thomas masterfully captures the emotional depth of Yadriel’s journey, portraying his struggles with authenticity and sensitivity. Through vivid storytelling and rich character development, Thomas sheds light on the complexities of self-discovery and acceptance in a world filled with magic and mystery.

Narrated flawlessly by Avi Roque, Cemetery Boys immerses listeners in a vibrant tapestry of Latinx traditions and folklore. Roque’s expressive voice brings each character to life, infusing the dialogue with passion and authenticity that resonates long after the story ends.
