The ARC Party

Cynthia Pelayo - FORGOTTEN SISTERS


Listen Later

Cynthia Pelayo’s love for Chicago and its history and people is on full display in this sweet, creepy, sad, entertaining novel. As a Chicagoland native, it was so fulfilling to be able to picture the places she mentions, know the culture of the people that fill the book. But, that’s lucky me for knowing the area.

You don’t need to know Chicago to fall in love with this book. And I was lucky enough to get some time with Cynthia to talk about things it made me feel, some inspirations for the story, and how we need community, and family, and empathy, and love in our lives. I’m very grateful for the opportunity to have such a great conversation with someone I just met!

I encourage everyone to get their pre-orders in for this asap, because it’s a great book. While you’re at it, you may also enjoy her other novels which also incorporate elements of Chicago and fairy tales. I’ve got a nice convenient list for you to shop right here!
