Maria E. Andreu Boeken
Maria E. Andreu creëert verhalen die de complexiteit van identiteit en de immigrantenervaring vanuit een uniek perspectief belichten. Haar schrijfwerk verkent vaak thema's als immigratie en de zoektocht naar ergens thuishoren, puttend uit haar eigen ervaring van het illegaal zijn in de Verenigde Staten. Andreu gebruikt haar literaire stem om licht te werpen op vaak over het hoofd geziene verhalen, en biedt lezers een diep resonerend inzicht in deze levens. Haar proza is boeiend en prikkelt tot nadenken, waardoor haar werken een breed publiek aanspreken.


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.
