This was my first book by SMG, I know so many people rave about Mexican Gothic and Gods of Jade and Shadow. It’s like a romance with forbidden love, vengeful characters, and innocent first love, but add a bit of magic. This is a dramatic little love triangle that will get you hooked and keep you reading. And Valerie will do anything to keep Hector from noticing how lovely Nina really is. But she doesn’t know Hector and Valerie had a tryst when they were younger and even though Valerie is married now, Hector will do anything to see her. So when she meets Hector, a very talented telekinetic performer she eagerly wants to get to know him. Nina has studied her talent and others who have it. Telekinesis is uncommon in their society but known. She can move things with her mind and when she gets angry, she lets objects fly by accident. Except Nina has a talent, she is telekinetic. She is put into the care of her cousin-in-law Valerie to be escorted to balls and introduced to eligible young men. Nina is 19 when she starts her first grand season (basically a debutante).

Upside: I do get a lot more reading done.Īnyways this is a book review! Thank you to Tor books for sending me The Beautiful Ones by Silvia Moreno-Garcia in exchange for an honest review. I am not very focused when I work from home, mostly because my office is set up in my library and all those books are calling to me. The current order lasts until May 20th, so I’m here until then. They have given police the power to stop check people that are outside of their house, and I don’t want to deal with that hassle. But the lockdown is on and the cases are getting higher and higher. 2 – I work in the office alone or with my husband 90% of the time. 1 – it’s really annoying to move my heavy desktop computer and two screens along with all my files. I didn’t move back home right away for two reasons. So when they announced another stay-at-home order at the beginning of April I was annoyed. The last stay-at-home order started at the end of December and I moved back to my office the first week of March. This is the third time I’ve had to move my set up from our work office.

Good morning bookworms! Happy Monday! I have moved my office back to my house again.
