In Cazadora, Romina Garber weaves together Argentine folklore and what it means to be illegal in a timely, intimate, and emotionally powerful narrative. Werewolves. Witches. Romance. Resistance. Enter a world straight out of Argentine folklore... Following the events of Lobizona, Manu and her friends cross the mystical border into Kerana—a cursed realm in Argentina—searching for allies and a hiding place. As they chase down leads about the Coven—a mythical resistance manada that might not even exist—the Cazadores chase down leads about Manu, setting up traps to capture and arrest her. Just as it seems the Cazadores have Manu and her friends cornered, the Coven answers their call for help. As Manu catches her breath among these non-conforming Septimus, she discovers they need a revolution as much as she does. But is she the right one to lead them? After all, hybrids aren’t just outlawed. They’re feared and reviled. What happens when the Coven learns of Manu’s dual heritage? Will they still protect her? Or will they betray her? And after running this far, for this long—how much farther can Manu go before her feet get tired, and she stops to take a stand?

First, I highly recommend this for teens/YAs - or for adults who really like teen/YA. It is a fast-paced book with important themes and topics, romance, and conflict. My personal enjoyment was mixed because I was eating up the Argentine mythology and issues woven throughout, but struggled with the characters' actions and dialogue (read: a lot of angst, impulsive decisions, first love romance). I do think this is an underread YA book and even though I'm not highlighting its pros as much as my cons, I think it should be recommended more.
With the first book I was hooked from the beginning but this one was a little harder to get into. Partly because I couldn't remember the first book well (which is making me rethink my 5 stars for that one) and partly because it was TOO expositional of what I already knew. However, the story is just as easy to get invested in as the first one. The emotive writing, magical setting, and bookish references will keep me coming back for more. Although I hope the third book has a better ending !
