I can't think of a favorite Latino author to recommend, but the best book I've read so far this year was Strangers by Dean Koontz.

Hmmm....can't think of one.

My favorite book this year is The Shack. I read it right after my Mom died. It helped comfort me.

OK...favorite book this year (I know I like Isabelle Allende sp?) but loved A RELIABLE WIFE this year so far. I have been a follower. Thanks for the giveaway!

I enjoyed Hija de la Fortuna by Isabel Allende. Her writing is really something special, even if I can't completely relate to the characters.

I cannot think of one in this category. The best book I read this year is definitely The Gargoyle.

I won a copy of "Dream in Color: How the Sanchez Sisters Are Making History in Congress," by Loretta and Linda Sanchez of California; The first sisters in Congress! Its a joint memoir and I loved it!

I can't think of a Latino book - one reason why I would love more exposure to them. My favorite book so far this year would probably be Cutting for Stone by Abraham Verghese, which is set in Ethiopia.

Yeah, another cool giveaway. Well, the boring stuff first.

I blogged about this here: http://wisb.blogspot.com/2009/05/sff-links-may-and-half.html
I am also a follower as a result of the other giveaway.

Now the fun stuff:
I can't say I have read much Latino literature that I know of. I'm certainly a fan of the magical realist movement started by the fellow who wrote One Hundred Years of Solitude, though, and find myself influenced as a writer by that genre as a result.

Anywho, my email is arconna[at]yahoo[dot]com

Thanks!

Latino book, Like Water for Chocolate, although a friend highly recommended House of Spirits.

So far my favourite book that I've read this year was The Gargoyle by Andrew Davidson.

Isabel Allende is my favorite Latino author!

How bad is it that I can't think of any Latino books (at least any I liked). I read the Cigar Roller for the Around the World in 80 Books club on the Oprah site, but I really disliked it. And I can't think of anything else. Man. Lack of sleep is really affecting my brain!

Ond of my favorite reads from this year is The Seamstress written by Frances de Pontes Peebles. The book is set in Brazil in the 1930's and is the most incredible debut novel. I highly recommend it.

Hi
Fantastic Giveaway. My favorite book this year was Twilight. The truth is I've read many and varied a book, but often I can't recall the titles. I'd love to read these books though.
Thanks.
