A trans boy determined to prove his gender to his traditional Latinx family summons a ghost who refuses to leave in Aiden Thomas's paranormal YA debut Cemetery Boys, described by Entertainment Weekly as "groundbreaking."
Yadriel has summoned a ghost, and now he can't get rid of him.
When his traditional Latinx family has problems accepting his true gender, Yadriel becomes determined to prove himself a real brujo. With the help of his cousin and best friend Maritza, he performs the ritual himself, and then sets out to find the ghost of his murdered cousin and set it free.
However, the ghost he summons is actually Julian Diaz, the school's resident bad boy, and Julian is not about to go quietly into death. He's determined to find out what happened and tie off some loose ends before he leaves. Left with no choice, Yadriel agrees to help Julian, so that they can both get what they want. But the longer Yadriel spends with Julian, the less he wants to let him leave.
"The novel perfectly balances the vibrant, energetic Latinx culture while delving into heavy topics like LGBTQ+ acceptance, deportation, colonization, and racism within authoritative establishments." —TeenVogue.com
"This stunning debut novel from Thomas is detailed, heart-rending, and immensely romantic. I was bawling by the end of it, but not from sadness: I just felt so incredibly happy that this queer Latinx adventure will get to be read by other kids. Cemetery Boys is necessary: for trans kids, for queer kids, for those in the Latinx community who need to see themselves on the page. Don’t miss this book." —Mark Oshiro, author of Anger is a Gift

It's a huge part of the book that Yadriel is trans masc and the community of Brujos (it really translates to witches but they are more spirit attendents) doesn't know how to deal with the change and how to treat him. Yadriel goes through the discrimination, disbelief, accidental and unaccidental misgendering trans people have to endure. His identity not taken serious, him being pushed aside, he decides he can prove them wrong and show that he belongs, that he is a brujo. But on this mission he and his best friend Maritsa soon are keeping secrets from their parents and get into dangerous situations. The spirit they summoned, Julian, is a cheerful teenage boy. But why did he die? And why is nobody looking for him except Yadriel and Maritsa?
I really enjoyed the adventure, the south american, trans, gay, representation is so valuable and mixed with the ghosts and fantasy elements it was so magical!

The main characters are extremely lovable and from about 15 minutes in I was ready to fight anyone who tried to hurt them.
Absolutely recommend!

I'm so glad I finally did.
This book was just amazing. I love the story, the whole atmosphere, the characters, and all the different types of relationships.
I love both Yadriel and Julian so much. I love Maritza!!!
I love the frienship between Yadriel and Maritza. I love the growing relationship between Yadriel and Julian. It felt so natural. It was amazing. The banter, THE CHEMISTRY.
This book also gave me all the family feels. I mean, geez. THAT WAS A LOT. And there was a lot of learning that needed to be done. BUT IT WAS SO DAMN GOOD.
Listen. I have trust issues, so I always think no one is extra nice to you for absolutely no reason. So I may have seen the big thing coming. BUT I DIDN'T CARE, cause it was still so well done.
The audiobook was so great. The narrator did an incredible job. And I really loved the interview at the end with Aiden Thomas. I can't wait to read/listen to the rest of their books.
A new Favorite!!!
