Corazon yearns to finally start training as a babaylan (a mystical healer and spirit guide) under her powerful guardian, Aunt Tina. As soon as her magic awakens, Corazon plans to bring her parents back from the dead and no longer have to rely on a soul key to allow visits with their ghosts for a few hours every Saturday night. But when a vengeful ghost steals Corazon's precious key, the fragile balance between the human world and the spirit world is thrown out of whack. Aunt Tina reveals that if Corazon wants her magic to awaken, then she just lay the ghost to rest by fashioning a new soul key. With her rather bloodthirsty gecko companion, Saso, Corazon embarks on a quest through the spirit realms. But they must move quickly, for if the ghost gets through the spirit glass, all hope will be lost. Roshani Chokshi pays tribute to her Filipino heritage in this book that has all the magic, sparkle, and heart that made her Aru Shah series a fantasy classic.… (altro)

* I got this book for review*

I loved this book It was such a fun read and i really enjoy how this story was strucutured. this story was a fun quest story but had so much heart to it and also some very impoetant lessons about grief. I loed the world buiksing in this story and all the side characters. It was a soild standalone story but also one that i would love to see the world again!! ( )

#FirstLine - Corazon Lopez possessed a rare and secret power, the kind that could make a river shrivel into a puddle or trap a tornado in a jar.

Roshani Chokshi's storytelling is a testament to her skill in blending the mystical and the mundane, creating a world where magic, myth, and Filipino heritage come alive. This book, reminiscent of her celebrated Aru Shah series, sparkles with imagination, wit, and a deep sense of heart. The Spirit Glass is a must-read for those who crave fantasy tales with rich cultural underpinnings, an intricate plot, and relatable characters. Chokshi's ability to transport readers into a realm where the boundaries between our world and the spirit world blur is nothing short of magical, making this a fantasy classic in its own right. A must read for child and adults alike!!! ( )

An exciting entry in the Rick Riordan Presents imprint, exploring Filipino culture and folklore. The story is, as usual, a middle grade adventure and a quest steeped in mythology, but this one is a bit deeper emotionally than many others in this genre. It's melancholy in a lovely way; quite sad, but ultimately hopeful. ( )
