Maria E. Andreu

    Maria E. Andreu píše o zložitosti identity a skúsenostiach imigrantov s jedinečným vhľadom. Jej práca často skúma témy imigrácie a hľadania miesta v spoločnosti, čo pramení z jej vlastných skúseností s tým, že bola v Spojených štátoch bez dokumentov. Andreu využíva svoj literárny talent na to, aby dala hlas tým, ktorých príbehy sú často prehliadané, a ponúka čitateľom hlboko dojímavý pohľad na tieto životy. Jej próza je pútavá a núti k zamysleniu, takže jej diela rezonujú u širokého publika.

With senior year of high school kicking into full swing, M.T. sees her hopes for a “normal” future unraveling.

      Love in English
    • You've Got Mail meets a YA Beach Read with a bookish mystery at its heart in the newest rom-com from Maria E. Andreu. The ideal next read for fans of Emily Henry, Kasie West, and Jennifer E. Smith. Julieta isn't looking for her Romeo--but she is writing about love. When her summer writing teacher encourages the class to publish their work online, the last thing she's expecting is to get a notification that her rom-com has a mysterious new contributor, Happily Ever Drafter. Julieta knows that happily ever afters aren't real. (Case in point: her parents' imploding marriage.) But then again, could this be her very own meet-cute? As things start to heat up in her fiction, Julieta can't help but notice three boys in her real life: her best friend's brother (aka her nemesis), the boy next door (well, to her abuela), and her oldest friend (who is suddenly looking . . . hot?). Could one of them be her mysterious collaborator? But even if Julieta finds her Romeo, she'll have to remember that life is full of plot twists. . . . From the author of Love in English comes a fresh take on love and romance, and a reminder to always be the author of your own life story.
