SOLVED. YA Magical Realism book set in the American Southwest about a town full of pilgrims that have come to seek a magical blessing to help with their problems. Read around 2021/2022. [s]

The blessings that these people received seem like curses at first but do tie in with their problems and help to work through them. The narrator/mc is a teenage girl who is a family member of the current priest- maybe a sister/cousin? I believe that their whole family is Mexican-American, and the priesthood is passed down along a family line. Memorable characters include a famous radio show host whose blessing turned him into a giant, and a quiet girl who loves to cook and is covered in butterflies. I think that there might have been a coyote on the cover/coyote mentioned in the title somewhere??

Sounds like All the Crooked Saints by Maggie Stiefvater
