Hay dos aspectos fundamentales de esta colección de cuentos a cargo de Giovanni Molina Rosario: desplazamiento y masculinidad. Por un lado, armándose de una prosa efectiva, audaz y breve —que en no pocas ocasiones invocan la memoria de Carver—, se nos adentra en un espacio diaspórico que nadie cuenta: Bloomington y sus zonas aledañas. En otras palabras, Giovanni nos muestra un recorrido irónico y elegante en una ciudad que les boricuas no narran. No estamos en Nueva York ni Filadelfia ni Boston ni Austin ni Houston ni Orlando ni Tampa ni Miami. Para nada. Ubicar el espacio en el centro del Midwest—Bloomington, Indiana— despolitiza varios temas comunes y nos permite fijar la atención en los entresijos de la trama. Y así llegamos al otro aspecto: la masculinidad. Jóvenes explorando su sexualidad en tiempos diversos, veteranos suicidas, estudiantes que hacen lo que sea por mantener legados de mentores y amigos;  en fin, Giovanni Molina Rosario problematiza la construcción del yo masculino mediante personajes vulnerables que buscan en quien les lee alguna compasión o calor, pero con una ironía y tenacidad que nos deja fríos. Ven, adéntrate en las calles y edificios de Bloomington.

- Alejandro Álvarez Nieves

Best Guide Ever!
Format: Hardcover
Comic Book Guy's book of pop culture is a hilarious read. Get in the know with Film, sci-fi, gaming, and of course, comics. Read all about a typical day in the life of comic book guy and learn his all time favorite quotes. Take a look at how to run your own comic book shop. Look at CBG places to be such as gaming tournaments, parent's basement, and baseball card convention. Learn the 15 types of moviegoers. A roll-on-the-floor-laughing book for not only for Simpson's fans but comic book fans as well. I highly, highly recommend it.

Absolutely thrilling and entertaining! Never wanted to put this book down 🫶🏻
Format: Paperback, Format: Paperback
I’m not gonna lie, I saw this was from Jennifer Lynn Barnes, read the description, and I was immediately hooked. Search and rescue dogs? Check. Family secrets? Check. A thrilling read? Check, check, and check. I absolutely loved every minute of this book, but considering that Jennifer Lynn Barnes also wrote The Inheritance Games, I shouldn’t have been surprised. So, plot, characters, and writing. For one, with the plot, I saw a lot of reviews complaining about the open ending. I didn’t find it that open in my opinion. I think it left just enough to let you know that people’s stories don’t end just because an event does. It’s more realistic that way and I seriously don’t understand why people get so mad about it. Besides that complaint from other people (not from me), every bit of the plot was exciting in this book. As far as the characters go, if you love love love Jameson from The Inheritance Games, you’ll absolutely adore Jude. Same character type and everything. Kira was obviously very reserved and different as a person because of her trauma, but I liked her depth. I wish we would’ve gotten a little more backstory about what happened to her in the woods and why it happened, but that’s okay. And the dogs? Probably the best characters in the whole book. Lastly, with the writing, if you liked any of Jennifer Lynn Barnes’ previous books, you’ll love this one. I seriously enjoyed this book so much. Overall, this was a book that I couldn’t put down and literally kept me on my toes. One hundred percent worth it to read (unless you don’t like somewhat open endings). Definitely a top read for this year. Favorite quote: “The things that haunt us, they make us human.”

This was a lovely story!!
Format: Kindle
I really enjoyed The Lovely and the Lost, all the characters were really vibrant and unique. Kira was found lost in the woods when she was a little girl. No one knew how long she had been on her own in the woods. Cady Bennett, the woman who had found her, adopted Kira and raised her with Jude, her son. Together Jude, Kira, and Free (their closest friend) train with their dogs to become search and rescuers. Now teenagers, they go on their first mission. It is hardest on Kira, who sees parallels between herself and the missing girl. Secrets start popping up and exploding, things are getting dangerous, and Kira is more determined than ever to find the lost child and bring her home. The story was heartwarming, adventurous, and had many laugh out loud moments. The end left a hint of an mystery uncovered, so a sequel would be greatly appreciated! Well done!
