About this ebook
The second book in this breakout series that's been called "charming and delectably sweet." (Zoraida Córdova, award-winning author of the Brooklyn Brujas series)
Leonora Logroño has finally been introduced to her family’s bakery bruja magic—but that doesn’t mean everything is all sugar and spice. Her special power hasn’t shown up yet, her family still won’t let her perform her own spells, and they now act rude every time Caroline comes by to help Leo with her magic training.
She knows that the family magic should be kept secret, but Caroline is her best friend, and she’s been feeling lonely ever since her mom passed away. Why should Leo have to choose between being a good bruja and a good friend?
In the midst of her confusion, Leo wakes up one morning to a startling sight: her dead grandmother, standing in her room, looking as alive as she ever was. Both Leo and her abuela realize this might mean trouble—especially once they discover that Abuela isn’t the only person in town who has been pulled back to life from the other side.
Spirits are popping up all over town, causing all sorts of trouble! Is this Leo’s fault? And can she reverse the spell before it’s too late?
Anna Meriano’s unforgettable family of brujas returns in a new story featuring a heaping helping of amor, azúcar, and magia.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Vielleicht nicht ganz so stark wie der erste Band, aber immer noch ein herzerwärmendes Buch über Freundschaft, Familie und darüber, was wirklich im Leben (und im Jenseits) zählt.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5"A Sprinkle of Spirits" was even better than the first book, in my opinion. It's just as heartwarming, but it has more magic, more development on the friendships and the family relationships, and ghosts - and if that's not a good recipe for a good middle grade book, I don't know what is.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This is the second book in the Love, Sugar, Magic series. I didn't like this quite as much as the first book in this series but it was still very entertaining and well written. This just wasn't as humorous as the first book and there was less focus on the magical baked goods (which I really enjoyed in the first book).Leo enjoys her new magical training but is getting pulled between demands from her family and commitments to her friends. Then when spirits start to take corporeal form, Leo is worried that her special power has finally manifested. It will take all of Leo’s family and all of her friends to help sort out this mystery and put these spirits to rest.I continue to really enjoy the family, friendship, and magic in this series. I also loved learning more about Hispanic culture.There was a lot less humor and less baking in this book; I missed both quite a bit.Overall this was a good continuation of this series. I enjoyed it a lot but not quite as much as the first book. I would recommend to those who are interested in Hispanic traditions and enjoy stories about family and friends with a bit of magic in them.
