A Young Adult Magic Realism novel written by Samantha Mabry. Everyone knows the legends about the cursed girl—Isabel, the one the senoras whisper about. They say she has green skin and grass for hair, and she feeds on the poisonous plants that fill her family’s Caribbean island garden. Some say she can grant wishes; some say her touch can kill.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Seventeen-year-old Lucas lives on the mainland most of the year but spends summers with his hotel-developer father in Puerto Rico. He’s grown up hearing stories about the cursed girl, and he wants to believe in Isabel and her magic. When letters from Isabel begin mysteriously appearing in his room the same day his new girlfriend disappears, Lucas turns to Isabel for answers—and finds himself lured into her strange and enchanted world. But time is running out for the girl filled with poison, and the more entangled Lucas becomes with Isabel, the less certain he is of escaping with his own life. | |

Escapism | |
| A Fierce And Subtle Poison / int_495c9e84 | comment |
Escapism: A recurring theme in the novel. All across the book, the narrative is side-tracked by various stories and myths commonly passed down by word of mouth by the inhabitants of the island. Given that the novel is told from Lucas's perspective, this is likely him intentionally trying to avoid his problems and try to find some connection with the inhabitants. Even the supposed origins of Isabel's "condition" are fantastical enough not to be believed, accepted to be true because it is the closest thing to an explanation. It does not help that the one who told Isabel the story was her dad. | |

Expy: The plot bares many resemblances to "Rappaccini's Daughter". | |
