About this product
Product Information
A whimsical romcom from the acclaimed author of the Reese Witherspoon YA Book Club Pick Furia , perfect for fans of The Spanish Love Deception and Josh and Hazel's Guide to Not Dating . An accomplished young woman decides to throw herself a quinceanera (times two) for her 30th birthday after calling off her wedding, but then discovers what it really means to come into her own. "An enchanting novel overflowing with self-love and second chances."- Kirkus Reviews A Cosmopolitan Summer Read You Need A Goodreads Book to Celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month A Scary Mommy Summer Book Pick Bibliolifestyle Books to Read for Hispanic Heritage Month One month short of her wedding day-and her thirtieth birthday-Nadia Palacio finds herself standing up to her infuriating, cheating fiance for the first time in . . . well, ever. But that same courage doesn't translate to breaking the news to her Argentinian family. She's hyperventilating before facing them when she glimpses a magazine piece about a Latina woman celebrating herself-with a second quinceanera, aka Sweet 15! And that gives Nadia a brilliant idea . . . With a wedding venue already paid for, and family from all over the world with plane tickets, Nadia is determined to create her own happily-ever-after. Since the math adds up perfectly, she'll celebrate her treintanera, her double quinces. As the first professional in her family, raising a glass to her achievements is the best plan she's had in years. Until she discovers that the man in charge of the venue is none other than her college fling that became far more than a fling. And he looks even more delicious than a three-tiered cake . . . Full of exuberant heart, Twice a Quinceanera is a pure delight for every woman who needs to be her own biggest fan-and who dreams of a second chance at first love. "Heartwarming...A fun, empowering romp." - Publishers Weekly "A warm, romantic story." - Booklist

Praise for Twice a Quinceañera "Méndez's debut adult novel is a love letter to people starting from scratch and an ode to those searching to find their one true love...An enchanting novel overflowing with self-love and second chances." -- Kirkus Reviews "YA author Méndez ( Furia ) makes her adult debut with a heartwarming romance centered on personal growth...It's a fun, empowering romp." -- Publishers Weekly Praise for Yamile Saied Méndez: "This book will set your dreams on fire . . . It's fabulous." -- Reese Witherspoon on Furia "In this stirring novel by Argentine American author Méndez, passion for sports and personal growth intersect in Camila's powerful, feminist first-person narrative about her experiences as an ambitious athlete, a teenager deeply in love, the daughter of an abusive father at the point of taking charge of her own life, and a young woman finding her voice in a deeply sexist, patriarchal society . . . A riveting coming-of-age story." -- Kirkus Reviews, STARRED REVIEW on Furia "Weaving rich cultural specifics and electric energy into her prose, Méndez crafts a dynamic, feminist narrative that commands attention from the very first line. At its core, this novel is a full-hearted love letter to Argentina and "incorrigible girls" everywhere, emboldening readers to stand up for themselves and chase the dreams they hold dear." --Publishers Weekly, STARRED REVIEW on Furia "An engrossing #OwnVoices novel." -- PopSugar on Furia "[A] high-energy #OwnVoices novel . . . Written in a relatable first-person perspective." -- Booklist on Furia "In Furia , Saied Méndez captures both the breathless beauty of fútbol and the depth of its political power. Sports intersect with gender, class, race, and identities around the world, and there's still so much ground to be covered in telling the stories that live at these intersections. This novel is a thoughtful, vibrant addition. Camila shows readers that they can have it all, even if it's not exactly as they planned it. She insists girls have every right to dream, to want, to live, and it is a pleasure to watch this character do all three things with love and fury in equal measure." -- Chicago Review of Books on Furia "Fun, fast, and full of laughs, you've never seen the White House like this!" -- Ally Carter, New York Times bestselling author of the Gallagher Girls series on Shaking Up the House "A delightful story of pranks and misadventures, proving that friendships with rocky starts are often the best friendships of all." --Saadia Faruqi, author of A Place at the Table and the Yasmin series on Shaking Up the House "Laugh-out-loud funny and joyously optimistic, Shaking Up the House reminds us that even when things go utterly awry, good-intentioned and caring people can set them right again. Yamile Saied Méndez deftly juggles multiple viewpoints to weave together a timely tale of the power of tradition and friendship. And in these fraught times, the story of two first families coming together in respect and common purpose is a bromide for the soul." --David Bowles, award-winning author of They Call Me Güero and the 13th Street series on Shaking Up the House, Praise for Twice a Quinceañera "[A] ridiculously charming rom-com." -- Cosmopolitan " A fun and whimsical story." -- Hip Latina "Méndez's debut adult novel is a love letter to people starting from scratch and an ode to those searching to find their one true love...An enchanting novel overflowing with self-love and second chances." -- Kirkus Reviews "YA author Méndez ( Furia ) makes her adult debut with a heartwarming romance centered on personal growth...It's a fun, empowering romp." -- Publishers Weekly Praise for Yamile Saied Méndez: "This book will set your dreams on fire . . .

purchased the book “my feelings are like wild animals: how do I tame them?” I got it here because the price was $4.72. Condition is as described. The book was bent which likely occurred during shipping, because it was shipped unprotected, by itself. I wish it was shipped in protective cardboard or in a bubble wrap envelope (like other books from eBay.) Fortunately it’s easy to flatten out the bend by putting something heavy on top of the book. Therefore I’ll purchase from this seller again.
