Silvia Moreno-Garcia\'s Certain Dark Things is a neo-noir, thrilling adventure in an alternate Mexico City where vampires exist. Moreno-Garcia\'s vampires are unique, inspired by cultures and folklore. We follow Atl, an Aztec vampire, as she fights for freedom from the evil colonizer vampires alongside a charming young trash-picker, Domingo. Featuring colorful characters, lore, and an adventure, Certain Dark Things is a fun read. Gabe expands on the world and the vampires within. Kat gives us a crash course in History about the colonization of Mexico. There is so much we weren\'t taught and still don\'t know. We hope this book and episode light a fire in you as it did us, to always learn more!
