Sorry author but the characters are all horrible. Lets see, Odilia is just a fake mother and trying to be the leader. Pita is annoying with whining and crying for wanting to go home. (spoilers i kinda wish she hadn't survived the bite) Juanita is supposed to be the strong one and she is basically dollar store odilia. Veilia and Deilia are supposed to be pretty girls and only want to be on tv for returning the dead man. Odilia uses her magical earring for EVERYTHING. Like she could have just used threats against Cecelia instead of hypnotism. Overall this book could have been 10x better. (added note also more spoilers. Its very guessable. I knew that Chencho would be the chupacabra. It was pretty dang obvious)
