Book Description

A parenting guide that speaks directly to Latinx families with language, history, and lived experience that honors and celebrates our cultura―while helping readers unlearn violence and shame as tools of discipline.

For many in the Latinx community, “la Chancla”―what we learn to see as the warning sign for disciplinary violence―has become a cultural symbol that has spawned relatable memes that many of us laugh about and bond over. But what if it’s also a symbol of something more harmful? 

In Chancla, educator and Latinx Parenting founder Leslie Priscilla invites readers, parents, and the Latinx community on a transformative journey away from cycles of fear, shame, and corporal punishment. With warmth and deep cultural insight, Priscilla explores the historical legacies attached to Chancla while offering a path forward rooted in connection, self-reflection, and ancestral healing. Chancla is the nonviolent parenting practice that celebrates Latinx cultura, while teaching its readers―and their Mamis, Papis, Tias, and Tios―how to heal from generational violence. 

Blending personal storytelling, historical context, and actionable tools, Chancla helps readers not only nurture their children, but their wounded inner child. Readers will see themselves in these pages because Chancla ultimately encourages them to unlearn what they’ve inherited and make space for what they deserve: homes full of love, safety, and respect.

My Thoughts

What an eye-opening book. And to think that for many years, I just thought about the "chancla" as the way my mom wanted to discipline me for my "bad" behavior. I never ever thought about all the implications and the history behind chancla culture, and the deep impact it can have on children and those children transitioning into adult life. 

I appreciate the author's thorough research, examples, and proposed questions in the book and how she mixes her own story with the information meant to be conveyed to readers. 

I loved reading this book; it was very relatable, informative, and well explained.

Book Description

The next thriller from #1 bestselling author Sarah Pekkanen combines a decades-old mystery with spine-tingling paranormal elements in this twisty novel of the seen and unseen.

Extrasensory perception.

The Gift.

A Sixth Sense.

Or something else….

In 1964, four remarkable young women at a prestigious university became the subjects of parapsychology experiments by a visionary scientist. On the cusp of a historic breakthrough, the women mysteriously vanished, and the program was erased from history.

Decades later, Riley Bell, newly divorced and desperate for a fresh start, accepts a caretaker job for an elderly widow named Betty. Riley steps into a home that is frozen in another era - no microwave, television, or cell phones, and Betty has never heard of the internet.

Why has Betty lived in such profound isolation for so many years, and why does she need Riley now? As the story unfolds across two timelines - Betty’s 1960s era of 5 o’clock martinis and high-stakes experiments, and Riley’s quest to uncover the truth about the missing women - old secrets rise to the surface. And the only way to survive is to confront the mystery that has lingered for sixty years.

My Thoughts

The best thriller I read this summer. And my new Sarah's favorite.

Although there were not a lot of twists, the suspense is rich, and the characters are unique to the story.

Fast-paced, with scientific elements and a dual timeline, this thriller is a very enjoyable read.

Book Review: Anxiously Ever After: An Honest Memoir on Mental Illness, Strained Relationships, and Embracing the Struggle by Clint Edwards-Memoir

Hello, dear Readers,

Below is my book review of Anxiously Ever After: An Honest Memoir on Mental Illness, Strained Relationships, and Embracing the Struggle by Clint Edwards.

Book Description

How Are You Doing? No, Really ...

In this poignant memoir that is both laugh-out-loud funny and sniffle-inducing, Clint Edwards explores his lifelong struggle with mental illness in the shadow of his father’s battle with the opioid epidemic and his mother’s undiagnosed mental illness.

From being diagnosed with obsessive-compulsive disorder to finding love, marriage, and having children, Clint explores what it means to find a healthy and balanced life with mental illness as your co-pilot. From the little hells of middle school and (frankly relatable) anxiety poops to running away from home at 14 and dealing with the death of a loved one, to learning that truly basic life lesson: you are not your parents, Clint touches on the crux of living moment to moment, struggle to struggle- without losing your ever-loving mind.

Clint’s candor, critical self-awareness, and refreshing sense of humor make for a one-of-a-kind read that might just make you feel less alone.

My Thoughts

I truly enjoyed this book. It was a very refreshing read and about a topic that is not explored and talked about enough, especially in Memoir. Mental Health Illness in men.  

Don't get me wrong, it was very hard to read about Clint's struggles from such a very young age, but at the same time, it was interesting to read about mental health and their effects in men. Usually, the memoirs I read are written by women, and although some of them discuss parents' and relatives' struggles, the focus is usually on the women's stories. 

Reading Clint's story, I can see how many other men experienced or are experiencing the same struggles; however, since we live in a culture where men are expected not to show emotions or to talk about mental health or any other issues they may be having, they are supposed to tough it out and move on. 

It was revelatory to see how much impact his father's issues had on Clint and how he went into his teens and adult life carrying the weight of all of these issues, not really knowing what it was until he knew and understood the roots of all of it and accepted the issues were not going away and learned how to live and cope with his mental health struggles. I am glad, personally, that he found the help he needed and his life got a lot better.

Book Review: Ungrateful Immigrant Daughter: A Memoir From The Child Of A Mail-Order Bride by Katya Suvorova-Memoir

Hello, dear Readers,

Below is my book review of Ungrateful Immigrant Daughter: A Memoir From The Child Of A Mail-order Bride by Katya Suvorova.

Book Description

In this darkly funny and irreverent memoir, the daughter of a mail-order bride unpacks her undocumented childhood in America.

The perfect read for fans of the jaw-dropping twists of 90 Day Fiancé and the emotional gut punch of I'm Glad My Mom Died.

Growing up undocumented in Houston, Texas, Katya Suvorova learned that keeping her family together meant dodging the police, enduring her mother’s many husbands, and babysitting her younger sister instead of finishing the third grade.

Her understanding of her life shifted dramatically at seventeen, when Katya discovered her mother’s advertisement in a forgotten Eastern European mail-order bride catalog from the 1990s. As she grew older, Katya came to better understand what her mother had risked when she smuggled herself and her then three-year-old daughter from Russia into the US.

When your parents sacrifice their lives so yours can be better, to whom do you owe your future?

Ungrateful Immigrant Daughter explores difficult questions and stories, both shocking and hilarious, from Katya’s childhood to an adulthood estranged from the woman who sacrificed everything for her. Her sharp, dry wit engages readers in a deeply relatable take on the experience of being a child of immigrants and unraveling a landscape of family secrets and lies, sharing her unique story of being the undocumented daughter of a mail-order bride.

My Thoughts

One of the best Memoirs I have read this year.

Some TW: sexual abuse of a child, neglect, domestic violence, dysfunctional family relationships, alcohol abuse. 

I felt so much for Katya. There were times I got so angry; I wanted to be there with her to tell her how valuable she was, and she is. 

It always blows my mind how vulnerable and brave people are to put their stories out there; not saying this in a bad way, it just makes me think if I ever be that brave to do the same. I appreciate Katya sharing her story. 

On the other hand, I can see why Katya's mother was, because she wanted to have a better life, and she truly thought the United States was the place to do so; however, the price she paid to have a green card, to be legal in this country, was very high, not only on herself but for her mom, dad, daughers and Katya's father. 

I absolutely loved the relationship between Katya and her grandmother. Although they could not always be together physically, they were there for each other mentally and spiritually. I am glad Katya had her and also her partner in life, who always tried to really listen to her and to be there for her. I also loved that Katya was able to reconnect with her father, that side of her family, and try to rebuild their relationship.

Book Review: I Belong to Me: A Survivor’s Guide to Recovery and Hope after Religious Trauma by Tia Levings-Self-Help

Book Description

What does it mean to heal from trauma caused by the people, beliefs, and practices of your faith? And to rebuild a sense of self, when high-control religion said you shouldn’t have one?

Indoctrinated from early childhood to obey, conform, and want what others wanted for her, Tia Levings learned love and acceptance meant being someone other than herself.

After years of abuse in a violent marriage and high-control religion, Tia Levings escaped with her children (a story told in her memoir, A Well-Trained Wife) and thought the hardest was behind her.

But leaving was just the beginning.

With an audacious persistence to reclaim her life, Tia set off on a 15-year quest to psychological peace. The result is an emotionally regulated, actualized, self-aware woman who is able to tell her harrowing story without retraumatizing herself ―a woman who can reach back to help others claim what’s theirs. If trauma took your past, it shouldn't get your present and future, too.

Through a series of personal stories, therapeutic stages, and resources, Tia Levings guides readers through the journey that helped her leave abuse, rediscover selfhood, and heal her mind, soul, and body after religious trauma ―so that you can too.

My Thoughts

I will say this over and over. I am so glad I found Tia Levings's work. I read her first book and now this, her second book, and she will definitely be an Auto Buy author for me forever.

More than a self-help book or a step-by-step instruction book, I Belong To Me is what these types of books should be. An honest, raw, and hopeful guide based on personal stories, journeys, backed up by research, and, more importantly, from real-life situations. 

In her first book, we learned how Tia escaped from a high-control religion and how she took herself and her children out of a horrible living situation. Now, in I Belong to Me, we learn how Tia was able to rebuild her life and heal from that high-control religion, her controlling husband, and a life of not being able to be her true self. 

It will always amaze me how, through other people's lives, we can learn so much about many other things that happen in the world. I will always be grateful to Tia because, thanks to her work, not only her books but also her social media platforms, newsletter, etc, I have been able to educate myself and better understand a lot of what is going on in the world now. From politics to religion to subjects that specifically concern women. 

I highly recommend this book. You don't necessarily have to be a religious trauma survivor to read this book. I believe what Tia shares with us in this book can also be applied to many other situations, including traumas or difficult situations we have experienced in the past or may be experiencing now.

Book Review: Migrant Heart: Essays About Things I Can't Forget by Reyna Grande-Essays

Hello, dear Readers,

Below is my book review of Migrant Heart: Essays About Things I Can't Forget by Reyna Grande.

Rating: 5/5 Stars

Genre: Non-Fiction/Essays

Author: Reyna Grande

Publication Date: May 12, 2026

Language: English

Hardcover: 256 Pages

Book Description

An ambitious memoir in essays by beloved bestselling author Reyna Grande that illuminates the hidden cost of the American Dream and the complex journey of healing that follows survival.

What is the true power of stories? Can they heal the jagged edges of a traumatic childhood? Is the cost of telling the story worth the price of the cure?

Reyna Grande has spent her career capturing the raw reality of life across borders. In this intricate and deeply intimate memoir-in-essays, the author of the landmark memoirs The Distance Between Us and A Dream Called Home again turns her gaze inward to explore the scars left by migration and the ongoing work of stitching herself back together.

With her signature blend of sophistication and raw honesty, Grande interrogates how living between two nations, two languages, and two identities has shaped the woman, mother, and writer she has become. Moving from the legacy of violence in her hometown of Iguala, Mexico, to a bittersweet family vacation in Europe spent reconciling her own impoverished past with her children’s world of abundance, she uncovers startling truths about the nature of survival.

Whether being racially profiled in the Arizona borderlands or finding unexpected wisdom from the slugs in her garden, Grande unflinchingly asks: How do we bridge the gap between who we were and who we have become? How do we turn pain into power? When memory threatens to define us, how can we use story to heal while still honoring our boundaries?

Migrant Heart is a powerful testament to Grande’s role as a storyteller and cultural witness. It expands our understanding of life in the United States and the complex people who cross its borders and live within it. It is an essential read for the seekers, the dreamers, and anyone who believes in the enduring, transformative power of finding one’s voice.

My Thoughts

First of all, some trigger warnings: Illness, fear of aging, sex life, alcoholism, death, grief, sexual assault, dysfunctional family dynamics, parenting, and immigration.

I have read all of Reyna’s previous work, and I love every single book. I find Reyna Grande to be an author who always tries to write in the best, most honest way possible, no matter how raw or hard the subject matter is.

While her previous work focuses on her journey coming to the USA, crossing the border, the impact of immigrating and growing up between two cultures, and her relationship with her mom and dad and her family in general, however, in Migrant Heart, written in Essays, I love how we get to know more about Reyna, the human being, the woman, the wife, the mom, the daughter, the sister, the writer, the friend, the advocate, and all the challenges she went through growing up as an immigrant, from the language barrier, to the psychological impact of living and developing between two cultures, from the place she was born and grew up to the place she immigrated to and became a teenager, and adult to the challenges of becoming a wife, a mom, a writer and navigate the world of writing books and advocating and educating on immigration matters.

I found this part of the book interesting and compelling: how, through her books, her writing, and by going back to her family in Mexico, to the place she was born, she always tries to help, educate, and advocate, no matter how much risk it might entail.

It was also fascinating to learn more about Reyna, the woman, the wife, the mom. How she handles and faces situations that are very common to women out there, such as parenting, sex life, illness, fear of aging, and family relationships. I loved how we learned a little bit more about Reyna’s husband and children in this book.

As you can tell, I loved Migrant Heart because, even though it felt more personal, it didn't leave out Reyna’s ongoing work on awareness, education, and advocacy around immigration through her personal experiences and journey.

Book Review: One Moment: Poems by Luis Muñoz-Poetry

Hello, dear Readers,

Publisher: Washington Square Press
Publication Date: May 12, 2026

Language: English

Hardcover: 160 Pages

Book Description

“It’s thrilling to encounter poetry this fresh, this undeniable.” —Kaveh Akbar, New York Times bestselling author

From “one of the most brilliant poets of his generation” (El País, Madrid), Spanish poet Luis Muñoz’s debut North American collection, translated by Idra Novey and Garth Greenwell.

Sweet, surreal, and haunting, these poems examine both the frictions and elusiveness that can occur between self and others. The slowing down of time, the gentle observation of sunlight like “golden cookies on the bedspread” as you lie next to a lover. The feeling of solitude renders you as small and still as a garbanzo bean, yearning as much for water and light as for continuing to be left alone.

Luis Muñoz is a beloved and critically acclaimed Spanish poet, and One Moment marks his American debut. The poems within are presented in their original Spanish and in English, translated by acclaimed writers and translators Idra Novey and Garth Greenwell.

Formally inventive, at turns playful and strange, One Moment moves a kaleidoscopic eye from friends to lovers, from one place to another, from one moment to the next, from the finite to the infinite. These are poems that delight in all the senses, and in the movement of the world around us.

My Thoughts

I truly appreciate the translation, Spanish-English. I found that both complement each other well.

As with any other poetry collection, some poems are more complex than others, which doesn’t mean they are not good; they all serve their purpose; however, some just hit differently.

What made this collection of poetry very unique for me was the writing, the use of imagery, and descriptions.

A lot of the poems resonated with me just because of their simplicity and straightforward meaning, and others, the weirdness and wording of them were what made them so special and a pleasant reading experience.

I loved and appreciated all the poems; however, my favorites are M.C. and Padre, and I loved Trasteando/Rummaging for its weirdness and deep meaning.

I love reading and writing poetry and I feel so honored I had the opportunity to read this collection in advance. Thank you, Washington Square Press, for the free ARC.

Book Review: True Color: The Strange and Spectacular Quest to Define Color--from Azure to Zinc Pink by Kory Stamper-Non-Fiction

Book Description

A kaleidoscopic journey through the secret history of hues—and the story of the obsessive genius behind the definitions of colors we use today, from the beloved author of Word by Word

"Wildly entertaining and bountifully informative; I couldn't have enjoyed myself more." —Benjamin Dreyer, New York Times bestselling author of Dreyer's English

begonia (n.): 3 -s : a deep pink that is bluer, lighter, and stronger than average coral (see coral 3b), bluer than fiesta, and bluer and stronger than sweet william — called also gaiety

What could "bluer than fiesta" possibly mean? While editing dictionaries for Merriam-Webster, Kory Stamper found herself drawn again and again to the whimsical color definitions in Webster’s Third New International Dictionary—especially when compared to the dry and impersonal entries that filled the rest of the volume. Stamper couldn’t help but wonder: Who was the voice behind these peculiar definitions?

Meet I. H. Godlove, an erratic but brilliant up-and-coming scientist who was one of the experts Merriam-Webster hired in 1930 to help revise the dictionary to reflect a rapidly modernizing world. His fascinating life mirrors the wild and winding journey that color science, color psychology, and color production took through the twentieth century. Stamper tracks these industries as they move into the atomic age and intertwine in strange and surprising ways, spanning two world wars and involving chemical explosions, an unexpected suicide, dramatic office politics, and an extraordinary love story.

Filled with captivating facts about color words and colors themselves—did you know that the word “puke” used to refer to a fashionable shade of reddish-brown before it was associated with vomit?—and fueled by Stamper’s inexhaustible curiosity, True Color will transform the way you see the world, from black-and-white to Technicolor.

My Thoughts

Speaking of interesting books, True Color is one of a kind.

The science behind color, lexicology and a long time of researching and trying to understand all behind color. This was truly an interesting and unique read .

Book Review: Citizenship: Notes on an American Myth by Daisy Hernandez-Immigration Studies

Hello, dear Readers,

Below is my book review of Citizenship: Notes on an American Myth by Daisy Hernandez.

Title: Citizenship

Author: Daisy Hernandez

Publisher: Hogarth
Publication Date: February 17, 2026

Language: English

Hardcover: 304 Pages

Meet the Author: Daisy Hernandez

Buy Me: Amazon

Book Description

A provocative, personal, blazingly intelligent examination of one of the most vexing questions facing the United States today: Who is, and should be, a citizen?

“[A] fascinating, urgently needed new book.”—Chicago Tribune

“How did ‘Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free’ turn upside down to where we are today? Everyone needs to read this book, citizens and non-citizens alike. Brilliant!”—Sandra Cisneros

“The most comprehensive book on citizenship/immigration I’ve ever read. A must-read!”—Javier Zamora

“The book I have always wanted to read.”—Jose Antonio Vargas

“Personal, profound, engaging, and comprehensive . . . this is an essential book for these contentious times.”—Booklist (starred review)

In this one-of-a-kind book, Daisy Hernández fiercely interrogates one of the most complicated subjects of contemporary life and politics: citizenship. Braiding memoir, history, and cultural criticism, she exposes the truths and lies of how we define ourselves as a country and a people. Turning to her own family’s stories—her mother arrived from Colombia, while her father was a political refugee from Castro’s Cuba—Hernández shows how the very idea of citizenship is a myth, one of the stories we tell ourselves about the American soul and psyche.

Reframing our understanding of what it means to be an American, Citizenship is an urgent and necessary account of the laws, customs, and language we use to include and exclude, especially those who come from Latin America. With her scholar’s mind and memoirist’s gift for narrative, Hernández weaves a story both personal and national, while reckoning with our country’s ongoing debate about who belongs and providing fresh ways of thinking about citizenship. At once bracing, fearless, and tender, Citizenship is a powerful portrait of one family’s experiences in the borderlands of citizenship and an honest illumination of the country we live in.

My Thoughts

If you are lucky enough, you come across books like Citizenship, and I feel so fortunate right now.

I didn't want it to end. I was so immersed in the story, and I also felt validated about many things I had been thinking about regarding immigration and citizenship in general. Sometimes we question ourselves, and what we believe or how we see the things going on around us, and when you have is a book like Citizenship, when another person puts into words a well-researched, well-told story, it can be a pretty powerful tool for the rest of us who are trying to educate ourselves and understand. I loved how the author goes into the story putting her personal touch in a memoir sense, but also adding all the references, facts, and dates, without making it too technical, boring, or difficult to understand.

Book Description

The multimillion-copy and New York Times bestseller B. A. Paris returns with a triumphant, unsettling next suspense novel, When I Kill You.

Who is watching Nell Masters?

Nell Masters is certain someone is following her. The hairs on the back of her neck rise when she travels to and from work, there are silent calls to her office, and a huge bouquet of flowers arrives without a card. And Nell has a reason to be looking over her shoulder, because she has a secret that she’s hiding from everyone in her life, including her new partner, Alex. But Alex also has secrets of his own.

Fourteen years earlier, when Nell went by the name Elle Nugent, she witnessed a student, Bryony Sanders, getting into a stranger’s car. When Bryony was found murdered, Elle became obsessed with finding the person responsible. She was convinced she knew who it was, and her fixation with Brett Parker, the man she accused, led her down a dangerous path . . .

Now, Nell tries to convince herself that this unnerving feeling of being watched is all in her mind. Has someone from her past discovered her new identity? Has the stalker become the stalked? Or is there something even more deadly at play?

My Thoughts

Every time B.A. Paris comes up with a new book I get so excited. She is one of my favorite authors ever, and once again, she didn't disappoint. 

When I kill you was such a roller coaster, suspenseful pack, and the ending was completely unexpected but very satisfying. I always appreciate her stories just because they have all the elements of a great thriller, and also characters that bring everything to the story.
