¡Viva Lola Espinoza! (English Version)

A debut young adult novel that’s Pride & Prejudice with a dash of magic, about a booksmart teen who spends the summer in Mexico City, meets two very cute boys, attempts to learn Spanish, and uncovers a family secret that changes her life forever. Lola Espinoza is cursed in love. Well, maybe not actually cursed — magic isn't real, is it? When Lola goes to spend the summer with her grandmother in Mexico City and meets handsome, flirtatious Rio, she discovers the unbelievable truth: Magic is very real, and what she'd always written off as bad luck is actually, truly . . . a curse. If Lola ever wants to fall in love without suffering the consequences, she'll have to break the curse. She finds an unlikely curse-breaking companion in Javi, a seemingly stoic boy she meets while working in her cousin's restaurant. Javi is willing to help Lola look into this family curse of hers, and Lola needs all the help she can get. Over the course of one summer — filled with food, family, and two very different boys — Lola explores Mexico City while learning about herself, her heritage, and the magic around us all.

¡Viva Lola Espinoza! (Versión en Español)

Esta primera novela de Ella Cerón para jóvenes adultos combina la esencia de Orgullo y prejuicio con un toque de magia, sumergiendo a los lectores en la historia de una adolescente intelectual que pasa el verano en la Ciudad de México. Allí, conocerá a dos lindos chicos, luchará por aprender español y descubrirá un secreto que guarda su familia, el cual cambiará su vida para siempre. Lola Espinoza parece llevar una especie de maldición en el amor, aunque quizás no sea una maldición … la magia no existe, ¿verdad? Sin embargo, cuando Lola viaja para pasar el verano con su abuela en la Ciudad de México y conoce a Río, un joven atractivo y coqueto, descubre una verdad sorprendente: la magia sí existe, y lo que siempre había considerado mala suerte resulta ser que era... una verdadera maldición. Para poder enamorarse sin sufrir las consecuencias, Lola se verá en la tarea de romper este hechizo. Para ayudarla con eso, encuentra un aliado en Javi, un compañero que rompe maldiciones, un chico aparentemente estoico a quien conoce mientras trabaja en el restaurante de su prima. Javi está dispuesto a ayudar a Lola a investigar esta maldición familiar, y Lola necesita toda la ayuda que pueda obtener. A lo largo de un verano lleno de comida, familia y dos jóvenes muy diferentes, Lola explorará la Ciudad de México mientras descubre más sobre sí misma, su herencia y la magia que nos rodea a todos.
