Format: Kindle Edition
I picked up the paperback at a book signing in San Antonio and am just blown away!
This is a series of short stories, each story with something unique to say. They range
from funny to poignant to sad to whimsical. At the turn of every page, you want to see
what Maria Elena is going to say next. Her writing has such a lyrical quality that it is
almost like reading the lyrics to a song. Beautifully descriptive, you clearly see every
character, every image as she describes it. She transports you to a roller coaster at
a theme park and a home in her native Cuba to a haunted house and with each story,
you can't help but be in her world. In the end, you are just thrilled that she invited you.
I loved her books The Coin and The Book of Hours but this is something very different.
I loved her books The Coin and The Book of Hours but this is something very different.
It feels completely personal, like we have stepped into her skin for a peek. I can't say
enough good things about it so just pick it up and get ready to get lost in her magic.
