Publisher's Summary

Cemetery Boys is an LGBTQIA+ ghost story about magic, acceptance and what it means to be your true self. From the instant New York Times-bestelling author Aiden Thomas.

Yadriel has summoned a ghost, and now he can’t get rid of him.

In an attempt to prove himself a true brujo and gain his family’s acceptance, Yadriel decides to summon his cousin’s ghost and help him cross to the afterlife.

But things get complicated when he accidentally summons the ghost of his high school’s resident bad boy, Julian Diaz – and Julian won't go into death quietly.

The two boys must work together if Yadriel is to move forward with his plan.

But the more time Yadriel and Julian spend together, the harder it is to let each other go . . .

'A celebration of culture and identity that will captivate readers with its richly detailed world, earnest romance, and thrilling supernatural mystery' – Isabel Sterling, author of These Witches Don't Burn

Critic Reviews

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)
This book is magical, tender, loving, and so so so important. I love it with all my heart. (Mason Deaver, author of I Wish You All The Best)
Cemetery Boys is nothing short of an astonishing work of art. Aiden Thomas masterfully weaves a tale of family, friendships, and love in a heartwarming adventure full of affirmation and being your best self. (C.B. Lee, author of Not Your Sidekick)
A story much bigger than the paper that binds it, Cemetery Boys is the tender intricacy we have all been waiting for. (Kayla Ancrum, author of The Wicker King)

Culture and Magic weave through this delightful tale

A great listen in the build up to spooky season.

Told by Yadriel, a queer latinx Brujo POV, this sweet tale incorporates the themes of coming of age, self discovery, acceptance and growth.

Avi Roque gave a wonderful performance with the narration.

Family and culture are highlighted as Yadriel takes steps to create a place within the Brujx community and its future.

My only BUT is that the writing seems quite young for the age of the characters and what they are going through.
