Family lore : a novel / Elizabeth Acevedo.
Flor has a gift: she can predict, to the day, when someone will die. So when she decides she wants a living wake-a party to bring her family and community together to celebrate the long life she s led-her sisters are surprised. Has Flor foreseen her own death, or someone else s? Does she have other motives? She refuses to tell her sisters, Matilde, Pastora, and Camila. But Flor isn t the only person with secrets: her sisters are hiding things, too. And the next generation, cousins Ona and Yadi, face tumult of their own.
