"Mesa’s debut mixes a bit of Mexican folktale, a chunk of magical realism, and tons of period detail into a page-turning urban fantasy that takes the glitter of Boardwalk Empire and combines it with a story of found family, mob violence, and romance." — Library Journal (starred review)
“Bindle Punk Bruja is a book you will dive into, gorgeously addictive and impossible to put down. It will transport you through time to a 1920s world soaked in gin, glittering in gold and edged in danger. Luna is a hero with an indomitable will, navigating blood-soaked city streets with dark humor and cutting intelligence. Sharp, smart and utterly enchanting, Mesa’s debut is a triumph that stayed with me long after I turned the final page.”
— Greta Kelly, author of The Frozen Crown
"The friends and family surrounding Luna are a joy to meet...good flapper fun." — Kirkus Reviews
"Bindle Punk Bruja is the “bee’s knees” and the “cat’s meow.”" — Seattle Book Review
