We Could Be Anyone
True deception is a work of art.
Lola and Lisandro are actors during Hollywood’s Golden Age, but you won’t see them on any silver screen. Instead, these siblings use their talents to scam the rich and famous out of their ill-begotten cash. They have their act down to a science: Lola plays the tragic ghost who haunts the mansions of the wealthy, and Lisandro plays the brave spiritualist who will help her soul find peace. For a small fee, of course.
The siblings have their sights set on their next target: The Coterie, the opulent estate of newspaper tycoon Bixby Fairfax and his famous mistress Blythe Bell. A score this big will allow them to move… well, anywhere but here. But this job requires them to do something they’ve never done before: switch roles. And as strange things keep happening at The Coterie… things that even Lola and Lisandro can’t explain.
As they are drawn deeper into The Coterie’s gleaming façade and tensions rise between brother and sister, one question looms over them. Will they be able to pull off their act? Or will this be their last performance?

Thank you to Toppling Stacks Tours for an ARC of this novel! We Could Be Anyone follows con artist siblings Lola and Lisandro as they get their biggest job yet. The two put on a con where Lola haunts a place as a ghost and Lisandro acts as someone who can communicate with the ghost to get rid of it. For this job, they need to switch places, challenging the two of them. This book covers a lot from queer identities to Latinx representation to wealth disparities. The setting - a hastily built hotel named The Coterie - was interesting especially as we learned more about its past. I thought the sibling relationship between Lola and Lisandro was nice, they clearly always had each other's backs even when they weren't agreeing. I liked the side characters of Hayden and Embry, they both had so much depth, and each complimented the sibling that they got to know.

McLemore has a talent for magical realism that should be studied in lit classes. While I came to this book for the plot I found the sense of setting and world building to be my favorite part, and enjoyed how she ties in different cultural myths to make the story feel more ethereal.

I'm not sure how I feel about this one. Some parts of it I found very enjoyable and readable and other parts felt forced into it.
Brother and sister act Lola and Lisandro aren't actors in the technical sense, rather they have a tried-and-true spiritual act in which Lola plays a ghost haunting a wealthy individual's home, and Lisandro is the spiritualist who helps solve the haunting, for a healthy fee. Their parents died while working on The Coterie, so when a job requiring their talents appears, the two (especially Lola, who hasn't told Lisandro the whole truth about their parents passing) are willing to do whatever it takes to get it. The Coterie is a large estate owned by Bixby Fairfax, a newspaper tycoon, who resides there with his mistress Blythe Bell, a famous actress. But when they need to switch roles to get the job and there are strange happenings neither is responsible for, will they be able to do this like any other job? With the help of Fairfax's black sheep son and a well-read handsome bartender, the siblings hope they can make it through, while keeping secrets from those closest to them, including each other.
Thank you to NetGalley for an eARC of this novel.

This book was a sunrise for me — the kind of story that slowly warms you, then suddenly illuminates everything you thought you remembered. I didn’t expect to find myself thinking back to Bulfinch’s Mythology and Ovid’s Metamorphoses, but the way Lola and Lisandro move through this narrative made those ancient stories feel startlingly present.
What I loved most was how McLemore uses myth not as decoration but as conversation. The interplay between these characters and the classical tales they echo felt almost instinctual — like the myths were breathing underneath the text. It reminded me how deeply questions of lived gender, physical form, and self‑definition run through those old stories, and how much more contemporary they become when reframed through a queer, modern lens.
This becomes a powerful subtext for Lola and Lisandro’s journey. Their story could have stepped straight out of Ovid — love, transformation, vengeance, devotion — but here it’s rendered with McLemore’s signature tenderness and clarity. The way they seek justice for their parents’ deaths among the wealthy and the “supernaturally rich” is both mythic and intimate, and the blurred line between fake haunting and real haunting adds a delicious layer of uncertainty.
I went into this book with no expectations, and that felt like the perfect way to enter it. McLemore’s prose is a river — you step in, let it carry you, and trust its current. For me, this read like a great episode of The Twilight Zone: you experience it, wonder at it, let your mind drift with it, notice what glows, and never once break the bubble of its world. There’s a logic here, but it’s the logic of myth and mystery, and I was content to inhabit it completely.

3.5 stars
I've enjoyed this author's work for many years and found some intriguing elements in this most recent effort, too. For me, the sibling relationship, representation, and memory-oriented scenes were most powerful. Also, I can ALWAYS count on McLemore to come up with some solid representation in every single effort, and I just want to further amplify how much I appreciate this.
One challenge I experienced is that it took me a bit to buy into these characters. They are running one unusual ruse, and I found it challenging to get my footing with that. I am all for Robin Hooding your way through life, but I didn't get as on board with this plan until much later in the novel when the flashbacks started coming through more powerfully. I'd have loved more of those kinds of flashbacks earlier on to set this part of the scene. On a related note, because this is such an efficient read, I felt like it was over by the time I was on board with the characters. Some basic reordering would have gone a long way for me.
As noted, I'm a long-time fan of this author and look forward to whatever creative submission McLemore has up next!

2.75 ⭐️ rounded up to 3 ⭐️
“This place has a way of destroying people. Living and dead.”
As poetic and decently written this novel was, all the references and analogies to mythology genuinely went right over my head. I enjoyed this story of Lola and Lisandro using spirituality and ghosts to con a rich couple avenge their parents' deaths, but I was really confused about the references to the trees and roots. Like was it literal, metaphorical, or something else? I still had a lot of questions by the end of the book but mainly because I didn't really understand the Greek mythology intertwined in the book. The timeline of everything going on (like is this current, 1900s or 1800s?) wasn't very clear and I still don't understand how Embry, Lola, and Embry's sisters were able to transform. I initially thought this was going to be more of a paranormal mystery thriller rather than a mythic, metaphorical story. I did appreciate the MLM, trans/gender-conforming, and Mexican character representation, but this book isn't the most interesting as it's more of a slow burn with Greek mythology elements that may go over a lot of readers heads if they don't know about Ovid's "Metamorphosis."

(3.25 rounded down)
Loved the writing! Slightly disliked it as well.
We Could Be Anyone is beautifully written. The prose itself made me fall in love with the world and the characters, and the book is packed with phrases and dialogue that I deeply enjoyed.
Having said that, some of the choices in how the story was executed left me wanting more. I might just be new to Anna-Marie McLemore’s style—or to the magical realism genre in general—but I felt the book relied too heavily on outside mythological references to explain its own plot.
The characters make it clear that they are referencing fables and tales told to them as children, yet the narrative provides no explanation as to why these things are happening to them specifically. Why is it that completely unrelated characters possess supernatural elements, yet others—who share the exact same blood and history—lack those abilities entirely? While you could argue that these disparities stem from differences in their personalities or attitudes, sharing the same bloodline should carry some weight.
While not major, I found these points to be a little unclear to me, which made it a bit harder for me to fully enjoy and immerse myself in the story.

I feel very conflicted about this book. I loved the use of greek mythology how references were used in the literal and metaphorical sense, and the story was incredibly compelling. I love a good "stick it to the man", eat the rich type story and this absolutely delivers on that. Also, the representation is great in this book featuring poc and lgbt mcs.
However, it just constantly felt like it was missing something. Overall, I wish the story was longer so we could have sat with the characters longer and really dove into the world the author was creating because often it felt like we were just skimming the surface of their emotions, the setting, the plot everything felt kinda surface level and I wasn't buying into the emotions of it all. The setting especially really lacked with the shortness of this book because I never really felt like I knew solidly where or when we were. All of this I think I could have overlooked but the ending just felt very odd and a bit like abrupt like it wasn't fully resolved. I feel if the author just did a few more chapters and fleshed out the ending a bit more I think I would have felt better about it and rated it higher.

We Could Be Anyone is a paranormal, gothic YA novel set against the glitz and shadow of Hollywood’s Golden Age. Siblings Lola and Lisandro arrive at a crumbling mansion with one goal: pull off a high-society scam that could change everything.
Despite its short length, this story carries impressive themes. It explores socioeconomic disparities, queer identity, and Latinx representation, while weaving in sibling tension, risk versus reward, honesty, loyalty, family loss, folklore/magic, gendered power structures, and teen romance. At its heart is the intoxicating thrill of the con—layered with emotional stakes that elevate the narrative beyond a simple scheme.
It’s disappointing to see low ratings without context, particularly for a story that offers representation. I believe many teens will not only enjoy this book, but genuinely see themselves reflected in it.
Only took me a few hours to read and I’d probably rate it 3.5 based on the age group.

Review of advance copy received from Edelweiss+
Orphan siblings Lola and Lisandro make their way in the world as actors/spiritualists who never prey on the grieving by claiming to connect them with those they love who have died. Instead there’s plenty to be gained by impersonating spirits who are still here, and their success leads to a gig at the home of the fabulously wealthy Bixby Fairfax, where they plan to make him pay for the part he played in the death of their parents. While exploring sexual preference and gender identity within the theme of metamorphosis, Lola also struggles with the vines that are growing up around her ankles and her mysterious connection to trees. Beautifully written, intriguing magical realism, fabulous dialogue and memorable characters. Earc from Edelweiss/

This was a wild grab for me on Netgalley but a pretty good read.
Siblings with the talent for acting but as hustlers and scam artists what a career to take up. But it's a little bit crazier then your typical hustle and roll, these two have a full on haunting, Lola haunts and her brother exorcises her, for a price of course.
Hopping from rich target to target and haunting the mansions of the wealthy they finally find one big enough to help them get out, easy right?
Nope, this time Lisandro is doing the haunting but it should be fine, until it's not, things going very weird. Is this place really haunted..
Fair warning it's a slow burn so settle in, but wow when you figure out what's going on..
First book with this author and will absolutely be checking out more.

Something about Anna-Marie McLemore’s writing just gets me every time. The mixture of queerness and folklore & fairytales, metaphors and skipped-over moments that float back to you when you’re further into the story. If you get it, you get it. And if you don’t, I hope you can find a way to let more magic into your life.
“They knew we could turn our bodies into branches. They knew we could turn glass tiles into thousands of stars. They knew we could make universes out of everything they would never touch.”
4.5 stars. TYSM to NetGalley + Feiwel & Friends for the copy xo

2.5⭐️ rounded up to 3⭐️. This book wasn’t terrible, but it failed to keep my interest a lot of the time. It had a good idea and plot forming, but I just think it could have used a bit more editing. And maybe I feel like it would have been more interesting as an adult book as opposed to a YA. I just felt like I couldn’t figure out if the characters were mature or immature in their thoughts and actions, and it started to muddle with the story a bit to me.

A slow-burn mix of queerness, identity, and folklore, We Could Be Anyone is more of a gothic noir than the mystery/thriller I was expecting. The characters and representation are well done and interesting. The plot started off intriguing but didn't keep me fully hooked throughout and I wasn't really sure what the stakes were but I did enjoy a lot of different elements of the story.

I just could not get into these characters. I know it's supposed to be Hollywood, but it felt more Bridgerton. The characters didn't get in my head and I sort of lost track of who and what. Also, no one should use sound alike or look alike names for characters. Makes me bonkers. Anyway, there's a lot of details here, and someone will like it.
Review of advance copy received from Netgalley
Good premise and setting. I love that the duo siblings' skills are put to the test when they must switch parts, so we get an insight into their how-to and difficulties. Fun con artists teens., and LGBTQIA representation. What keeps us going is the supernatural elements related to the dryad curse the mystery related to what was done to them. A great June read.
May 29, 2026
I struggled so much with this story. A lot felt forced and a bit overdone. Every now and then there would be moments of interest to keep me going and I appreciated the representation in the story. There’s some good elements here and other readers may find more enjoyment than I did.

I personally wasn’t able to get into the story because of the writing style and I tried to push through but by the time I got around page 100 I figured there are so many books out here and it doesn’t mean I’m going to like every single one, which makes me sad, but I am hopeful to know that this book will be someone else’s favorite

This was a decent story, but I wasn't sure where it was going. I liked it to a point, but not to another. It was very slow and just not moving at a decent pace. I will try again later, or maybe even have my kid read it and see what she thinks.

Thank you to Anna-Marie McLemore, Macmillan, and NetGalley for the advanced copy of We Could Be Anyone. This YA book is a lushly gothic story of transformative relationships. I enjoyed the characters and their interactions and would recommend this to fans of Hazelthorn!
