Historia
Part dark romance, part fairy tale, DISORDER marks the arrival of bestselling Italian author Rokia, available for the first time in English, in a vibrant translation by Beth Hickling-Moore. The production is voiced by an all-star cast: Diane Guerrero (Orange is the New Black), William Gao (Heartstopper), Freya Allan (The Witcher) and Connor Swindells (Sex Education.)

Phenomenally Written
Revisado: 02-21-25
They say never judge a book by its cover, but I kind of did. Just based on the title I figured it was some romance novel about two people with disorders, but it piqued my interest anyway. Plot twist? This book was SO much more than what I expected it to be.
At first Sia TRULY annoyed the hell out of me, but as the story kept unfolding and more was revealed about each character, including their trials and tribulations, mental health struggles and disorders, it started to make so much more sense. I felt like this was really well written. The characters had depth, the plot had a lot of twists and turns and the emotions it evoked were MANY. I’ve never cried because of a book and this one made me cry a few times (especially at the end). As for calling it a dark romance, I can see why. It does fall into the category, but people who read dark romances like Haunting Adeline, That Sik Luv, or Death’s Obsession might not find this to be the type of dark romance they are looking for. (Side note: I’ve read those books myself.) Like I said, this book is so much more.
More importantly, for people like me who struggle with their mental health, it was relatable. It made me feel seen and understood beyond a surface level. I truly hope the author makes an English print version available because I would love to read this again (well technically the first time I listened) and have it part of my permanent collection.

Historia
Contract killer Lachlan Kane wants a quiet life working in his leather studio and forgetting all about his traumatic past. But when he botches a job for his boss’s biggest client, Lachlan knows he’ll never claw his way out of the underworld. At least, not until songbird Lark Montague offers him a deal: use his skills to hunt down a killer and she’ll find a way to secure his freedom. The catch? He has to marry her first. And they can’t stand each other.

Historia
LeJuan James loves being Hispanic. But growing up in the US to immigrant parents, he quickly noticed their house rules and traditions didn’t always match up with his friends’. The result was a lifetime of laugh-out-loud relatable content for his videos. Definitely Hispanic is a collection of heartfelt memoiristic essays that explores the themes LeJuan touches upon in his videos and celebrates the values and traditions being kept alive by Hispanic parents raising US-born children.

Orgullo Latino!!! A MUST hear!
Revisado: 08-30-19
OMG!!! I am SO happy I decided to get this book in the audio version!!!! Hearing LeJuan’s story straight from his mouth truly tugged at my heart in SO many different ways. It was nostalgic, relatable, funny, heartwarming, sincere, inspiring and SO MUCH MORE!! LeJuan makes you feel so proud to be Latino and proud of a community that is hardworking, caring, loving and trying to make a difference in this world. I love how it was the story of his life, but presented in a way that we could relate in one way or another. I definitely recommend this book, ESPECIALLY to teens and young adults. I’m in my 30s already, and some of the advice he gives is still relevant to us in this age group, but I know the even younger crowd can get SO many important pieces of advice that could help them in many areas. Family, love, work, life, etc. DEFINITELY GIVE THIS BOOK A TRY! Especially if you’re already a fan. You won’t want it to end. Bendiciones!!
