"These are not your grandmother’s folktales. . . "

“The Extravagant Stranger” Rosa Maria has great plans to marry a rich man and never work a day in her life. One day, an extravagant stranger sweeps her off her feet and promises to give her all she desires. . . .

“Unforgivable” Beto Andrades is deeply in love with his neighbor Sarah Stan. Yet, as an undocumented teen, he doesn’t stand a chance with her. What is worse, her father hates all Mexicans. . . .

“Magical Bully” Meet Rita, an inquisitive young girl with a budding scientific mind. Her world is perfectly logical, until she encounters a duende, a magical creature. . . .

“Never Really Alone” Isella’s boyfriend, Rich, is back from MIT. He isn’t the same anymore, and she wonders if it’s time for them to break up.

**Four no-holds-barred, supernatural tales for young adults.**

I also want to thank everyone who attended my first-ever book release party yesterday. You can watch a video of the reading here:  https://www.facebook.com/drmariajestrada/videos/2335670283313342/. I will host another event mid-July, so stay tuned!

Well, we are in a rush to get to church and afterwards, spend the day with my husband for Father's Day.  I hope all Fathers and Father Figures have a fantastic day of happiness and rest.

Celebrate your victories and love the Da's in your life. #barrioblues

    MARIA J. ESTRADA is an English college professor of Composition, Literature, and her favorite, Creative Writing. She grew up in the desert outside of Yuma, Arizona in the real Barrio de Los Locos, a barrio comprised of new Mexican immigrants and first-generation Chicanos. Drawing from this setting and experiences, she writes like a loca every minute she can—all while magically balancing her work and family obligations. She lives in Chicago’s south side with her wonderfully supportive husband, two remarkable children, and a menagerie of animals.
