Critics Review
“It swept me away from the very first chapter.”
– Grace Morrow, author of We Become Darkness
“Loba is a yell of defiance against generational trauma, violence, and misogyny. Twisty and atmospheric, this cathartic horror will captivate you with townsfolk who know too much, lost treasure, a haunted lighthouse, and otherworldly sea lions.”
– Eli Snow, author of The Divine Gardener’s Handbook
“a haunting, feverish gothic horror.”
– A.T. Rainach, author of The Art of Living Forever
“The ghost in this book works the way a violent hunter works … I finished the book standing up, sat in my studio for an hour making nothing, and then I could not stop drawing. Loba lights that fire.”
– Leopoldo Goût, author of Rooted
“This gothic horror set in Uruguay is immersive, eerie, and bloody, rich with the palpable sensations of salt water and cold metal railings.”
– Booklist
“A lush, claw-sharp debut that announces Valentina Cano Repetto as a voice to watch in feminist magical realism.”
– Soumi Roy
