I love this type of rom-com. I feel like I am rereading better than the movies again!! The serenade?? Gosh I was screaming! This book feels like a y2k highschool rom-com. It gave everything I needed at the moment! Love this so much!! Such a great summer read, very fast phase but very underated. 💞💌🎀 Title : Our way back to always Author : @ninamoreno My Rating : 4.5 ⭐️ Synopsis : Luisa (Lou) Patterson grew up across the street from Sam Alvarez in the small, quirky town of Port Coral. They used to be inseparable--spending every holiday together, shooting silly YouTube videos, and rescuing stray cats. But then middle school happened, including the most disastrous (and embarrassing) serenade ever, and Lou and Sam haven't talked in the four years since. Sam is now the golden boy with plenty of friends, while Lou is an introverted romantic who's happy playing video games and writing fan fiction. But it's also the summer before their senior year, and life is knocking on Lou's door. With her older sister having given up a scholarship to Princeton to have a baby and work at the local botanica, all of their mother's expectations are now riding on Lou's shoulders. She's retaking her SAT's, signed up for way too many AP classes, and her sights set on colleges with fancy names like Duke and Vanderbilt. But when she finds the bucket list she and Sam wrote together as kids, before Sam's father was diagnosed with cancer, she's shocked to see that she hasn't accomplished any of the goals she'd set for herself. Go to a party? Nope. Pull the greatest prank of all time? Still no. Learn how to be a really good kisser? Definitely not. Torn between the future that her mother, sister, and younger self planned for her, Lou sets out to finish the list, and in a stroke of destiny or fate, Sam decides to tag along. Still trying to stay afloat amid the grief of losing his father, Sam himself is staring down a future that feels all too close, and is coming far too fast. But with the bucket list to guide them, Sam and Lou might just be able to find a way through the future, and also a way back to each other. #book #bookread #ourwaybacktoalways #Ninamoreno #summerreads #rom-com

🩷 BLURB REVEAL 🩵 One of my absolute favorite books of all time is DON’T DATE ROSA SANTOS by @ninamoreno and I’m pretty sure I’ve been saying since I was 16 that one of my absolute top author dreams is for my book to have a Nina Moreno blurb!! SO, so grateful for this beyond lovely praise for THE LAST LOVE SONG!! Text: “A sparkling debut that feels like racing alongside Daisy Jones’s daughter as she unravels the mystery of her infamous mother.” - Nina Moreno, author of Don’t Date Rosa Santos #yabookstagram #blurbreveal #yaromance #youngadult #yacontemporary #yabooks #booksbooksbooks #bookstagram #writingcommunity #authorsofinstagram #kalieholford #thelastlovesong #ninamoreno #dontdaterosasantos #ourwaybacktoalways #jointheclubmaggiediaz #authors #newpost @blackstonepublishing #debutauthor #newrelease #willow #taylorswift

Thank you, @jeanettesreadingcorner, for lifting up THE COLOR OF LOVE in such a sweet and meaningful way for Valentine’s Day! Pink has always been my signature color. 🩷 Repost from @jeanettesreadingcorner • “This is the story of how I have come to know who I am when faced with exactly this, and I know the choice is mine. And mine alone. It is because of everything I have ever experienced, and the fact that I exist in this unique form, that I am able to choose as I do. And not despite it. And, for me, the choice is always love.“ - Marra B. Gad, The Color of Love ❤️ ————————— Hi, readers! Happy Valentine’s Day! Here’s my pink and red book stack. I love the Featherly Friends collection of birds at Target. I have a few in my room. Most of the props in this post are from Target actually. I enjoy Valentine’s Day mostly because of the candy/chocolate. I brought some in to work and everyone loved it. I haven’t been reading a lot of romances but I have been watching some movies in the genre. I watched The Hating Game and I didn’t like it. It was too long and repetitive. I’m currently watching Upgraded on Amazon Prime Video and I love it! I highly recommend it. I’ve been really into nonfiction books lately. I’m currently reading The Color of Love by Marra B. Gad and Prince Harry’s Spare. I like them both in their own ways. I just recently bought Say You’ll Be Mine by Naina Kumar. I’m excited to read that one. I hope everyone is having a good week! 📚🩷 ———————— { #bookstack #booknerd #booklove #bookquotes #bellhooks #marrabgad #nainakumar #caseymcquiston #ninamoreno #sarahhenning #marisameltzer #nonfictionbooks #youngadultbooks #adultbooks #pinkbooks #redbooks #bookrecommendations #bookphotography #jeanettesreadingcorner #bibliophile #targetfinds #targetdecor #targethome #targetstyle #bookstagram #happyvalentinesday❤️}

PACK YOUR BAGS, MAGGIE DIAZ written by Nina Moreno and read by Cyrina Fiallo is just as fun and sweet than the first book. It feels shorter and like there was a little less time to dive into some of the themes. I enjoyed Maggie’s journey of spring break, first crushes, and learning how to accept changes in friend groups. #packyourbagsmaggiediaz #ninamoreno #cyrinafiallo #middlegrade #scholasticaudio #bookstagram #audiobook

🏖Skai's Summer Reads🏖 Don't Date Rosa Santos by Nina Moreno This morning my sister asked if the only summer books were romantic comedies. The answer is yes, like 95% of books that take place in summer are romantic comedies. I've been on the lookout for summer book that are other genres and they are hard to find. In her South Florida port town, Rosa Santos is known as cursed by the sea. She's bad news for any boy with a boat. When she collides with Alex Aquino who's family owns the marina, she'll have to break the curse before it's too late.

Happy four years to Rosa Santos & Port Coral. 💛🌊 It's wild that it has been that long since my debut. Wasn't 2019 just like, a couple months ago? And then I see the beautiful shelves of Latinx love stories and quiet contemporary. All the ways our stories are taking up space in places where I once searched for us. For Rosa. Where are we today, Rosa? We're everywhere. #dontdaterosasantos #yabooks #ninamoreno #read #bookstagram #latinxbooks #bookish #writersofig

Hey que rock 🤘🏼, el día de hoy vengo a platicarles un poquito de está novela que leí hace un tiempo y que debo decir me gustó más de lo que esperaba... En esta historia vamos a encontrar varias situaciones, entre ellas la inmigración, la ausencia de progenitores y las supersticiones familiares. Partiendo de aquí, debo decir que me gustó que manejara la parte de la cultura de otro país, el tema de la inmigración pero sobre todo de lo que se es capaz de hacer para salvar a tu familia. Sin dudas es una experiencia muy grata, con un romance juvenil muy rosa. También el tema de la superstición y el aspecto culinario es interesante, ya que se hace mención a cosas de la cultura cubana que son muy intrigantes. Por otro lado el aspecto de la familia por elección también está bien llevado, el abandono por parte de las figuras paternas y lo que esto acarrea también se me hizo bien, por otro lado el cómo la union de un pueblo puede llevar a cumplir metas. Aparte, es una historia narrada en una zona playera que siempre me gusta mucho por la ambientación que llevan. Y aunque si me gustó, hubo escenas y situaciones que sentí innecesarias o inconclusas. Pero de ahí en más me gustó. ¿Lo han leído? . . . . #noteenamoresderosasantos #ninamoreno #vreditoras #bookreader #books #bookcover #bookcandle #bookshelves #bookobsessed #librosmexico #libros #librosqueenamoran #librosjuveniles

“I begged time to slow so I could live in this moment a little longer. Gather all this up and press these moments between pages like flowers.” -Don’t Date Rosa Santos This year I simplified my life and really focused on the things I love and enjoyed the simple act of reading. This little book here kind of changed my life in different ways and made me really feel seen. Feliz Navidad! And thank you @sharmashari for this precious ornament. @ninamoreno

“My bedroom door flies open. “Happy Birthday!” I shoot up with a death grip on my blanket. Mom, Cora, and Abuela stand in my bedroom. Mom holds a cupcake with a lit candle in the middle. They launch right into song. “Make a wish!” Mom says, bringing the cupcake closer to my face. “¡Feliz cumpleaños, Papito!” “Do we get to spank him eighteen times now?” Cora asks. It was one of Dad’s jokes.” - Nina Moreno, Our Way Back to Always ☀️💕 ——————————————————————————————— Hi, readers!! Today is my birthday!! 🥳 I’m 25 years old today and that’s why I included this picture of SpongeBob and Patrick laughing at the “You know what’s funnier than 24? 25!” joke. I thought it was funny because I’m going firm 24 to 25. This image is actually a cake topper!! 😂🙌🏼 ——— Our Way Back to Always by Nina Moreno is my favorite book that I read this year!! The quote above is from a scene during one of the main character’s birthdays. I loved this book so much and I recommend it often. Our Way Back to Always is everything I want in a YA novel: it’s inspiring, emotional, heartfelt, family oriented, and diverse, with a setting that feels like home and a friends to lovers romance (and so much more). I received a copy of the book as a birthday gift last year. I need to post it about more on here!! That’s why I chose to post about Our Way Back to Always today. I’m excited to celebrate my birthday and get more books to add to Jeanette’s Reading Corner!! 📚💖 ——————————————————————————————— { #booknerd #booklove #bookquotes #ourwaybacktoalways #ninamoreno #ninamorenobooks #portcoral #yacontemporary #youngadultbooks #youngadultromance #latinxauthors #latinebooks #diversebooks #diversereads #read #readerlife #myfavoritebook #bookrecommendations #bookphotography #jeanettesreadingcorner #bookblogger #bibliophile #booksoutside #bookstagram #mybirthday}

What was the last book you read? Mine was this beauty, JOIN THE CLUB, MAGGIE DIAZ by @ninamoreno and @_courtney_luv! As soon as Nina announced this book, I knew it would be wonderful. Her writing translates so well to middle grade; a girl trying to figure out her future, dealing with her chaotic family and school. Maggie is such a charming character, her ideas made me laughed aloud and more than once I wished I could hug her, my poor anxious baby <3 Her family is as chaotic as her and they stole my heart; her abuela and her plans for stealing the neighbor’s avocados (my childhood right there!), her older sister who loves fighting but will always have Maggie’s back (and she has a crush in this girl, Alex), her super mom dealing with university and parenthood who sometimes forgets to listen to Maggie but loves her deeply, her baby brother Lucas and her super supportive dad. Maggie’s family are a huge part of the story and I adore all of them. Maggie is this seventh grader, a ball of energy and pure chaos, navigating school and a crowed house. Everyone seems to know who they are and Maggie wants to find her Thing. So she tries so many different clubs, struggles with her friendships and learns some new things about herself. But my favorite part of the book? The illustrations are so stunning and cute. Courtney really brought the characters to life! Highly recommended ✨ [Image ID: Cande holds a copy of Join the Club, Maggie Diaz in front of bookshelf.

“I can’t believe it ended up being such a great year. “There’ll be more,” I assure her with another quick kiss. “I know,” she says. “Plus, we’ve still got a whole perfect summer ahead of us.” “You and me?” I press my hopeful smile against her knuckles in a kiss before taking her hand and tapping it twice against my collarbone in a promise. “We have an always.” She laughs. “Who knew you were the romantic all along?” - Nina Moreno, Our Way Back to Always ☀️💖 ——————————————————————————————— Hi, readers!! I recently finished reading Our Way Back to Always by Nina Moreno and it’s my top favorite book so far this year. I loved it even more than Don’t Date Rosa Santos. Yes, I photographed this at a hotel pool to match the cover!! 🙈💙 - The friends to lovers trope in this book is *chefs kiss* too good!! The main characters, Sam and Luisa (Lou), know each other so well. The bucket list adventures was a fun plot. It was so cute to watch Sam and Lou grow as individuals and friends, to a deeper bond and fall in love. - One of my favorite things about Nina Moreno’s books is that they are funny and romantic, but also have so much heart and emotion. Family is a big part too and I liked getting to know Luisa, Sam, their families, and side characters. - It was wonderful to be back in Port Coral!! Some details and characters make appearances from Don’t Date Rosa Santos. Our Way Back to Always has the perfect ending. I would love to read more books set in Port Coral and for it to become a series, if possible. I have a lot more to say in my full review on StoryGraph and Goodreads!! ☺️💖 ——————————————————————————————— { #booknerd #booklove #bookquotes #ourwaybacktoalways #ninamoreno #ninamorenobooks #yacontemporary #youngadultbooks #latinxauthors #latinxbooks #latinebooks #friendstolovers #read #readerlife #bookreview #bookrecommendations #bookphotography #jeanettesreadingcorner #bibliophile #booksoutside #poolside #poolsidereading #summerreads #bookstagram #santodomingo #dominicanrepublic}
Hello everyone! I hope you’re all having a good day. I’m specially sending love to my friend and family in Florida dealing with Hurricane Ian. Hoping for a quick end to the storm 🤞🏻 . . DON’T DATE ROSA SANTOS is one of my favorite contemporary books. I had the absolute pleasure of promoting this book with a plethora of Latinx friends and to this day, it’s one of my favorite moments as a part of this community. I even wrote about it in my undergraduate thesis! Because of it, Nina Moreno is one of my favorite authors ❤️ . .

Lately I've been watching New York Undercover on the Peacock app, and have the soundtracks to seasons 1 & 2. Both have great music and I wish they would've done a soundtrack for season 3 as it was the last to feature musical acts on the show. As a fan and lover of 90's music I put together a mock up of what a NYU Season 3 soundtrack might look like based on the musical guest they featured. Swipe left to view the tracklist, it's pretty dope! Even made it a playlist on my iTunes 😎 #90stv #90smusic #hiphop #urban #copshow #newyorkundercover #jcwilliams #malikyoba #eddietorres #michaeldelorenzo #ninamoreno #laurenvelez #ltcooper #pattidarbanville #kirkfranklin #bonethugnharmony #theisleybrothers #soraya #guy #newedition #titopuente #georgebenson #tonyrichproject #philcollins #celiacruz #groovetheory #aaliyah #jamesingram #lisastansfield
“I begged time to slow down so I could live in this moment a little longer.” Don’t Date Rosa Santos by @ninamoreno is a beautiful book, inside and out! I absolutely loved it. It is brimming with gorgeous sentences and beautifully constructed (mostly female) characters. I particularly loved the sincere and sometimes devastating attention Moreno paid to the ideas of place/home and family and the inexhaustible spectrum of what those look like for different people. What are you reading today? What’s your favorite thing about it so far? 😊 #yabookreview #yabookreviews #librariansofbookstagram #queerbookstagrammer #yabookstagrammer #librariansofbookstagram #jewishbookstagramtour #teenlibrarian #booksbooksbooks #dontdaterosasantos #ninamoreno #booklover #yabookshelf
I’m telling y’all my recent YA reads have been so good! Don’t Date Rosa Santos by Nina Moreno is a warm hug wrapped in cinnamon, dulce de leche, the sea and a little magic.

Visit Port Coral this summer! ☀️🌴🌊💕 If you're looking for a cozy seaside town, senior year antics and decisions, former best friends who secretly pine as they argue, sneaking into a pool with said former friend and oh no, they're hot, saving your harbor town with that gruff sailor, latinas with complicated, loyal mothers, and a whole town rooting you on, then do I have a couple of books for you. 🏖️ Are you a seasonal reader? I'm an avowed beach reader. A sucker for a favorite book that gets all sandy. A poolside bibliophile who's known to dog ear pages and loves the smell of coconut sunscreen on an old paperback. Luckily enough, the Port Coral dulogy does great with sand and if you're cursed by sea or prefer sticking to the shade, both are available digitally and in audio! (Do not drop your e-reader in the pool like me though.) . . . (ID: copies of Don't Date Rosa Santos and Our Way Back to Always in the sand at the beach. Close up of Don't Date Rosa Santos with text that lists tropes. Love letter to summer YA, cozy beach town, family curse, swoony romance, grumpy sunshine, diaspora longing, cathartic crying. Close up of Our Way Back to Always with text that lists tropes. Ex-best friends discover childhood bucket list, senior year quests, lots of pining, practice kissing, poolside confessions, return to cozy beach town, more cathartic crying. End.) #dontdaterosasantos #ourwaybacktoalways #beachread #summerreading #yabooks #bookstagram #ninamoreno #portcoral
#qotd How good are you at putting on sunscreen? Do you put some on every time you go outside? Only if you’re outside for more than 30 minutes? Never?☀️ I am generally really good at putting sunscreen on my face and shoulders if I’m going to be outside for more than a few minutes, but I do fail at covering my arms and legs 😅 Ages ago I saw a cute #sunshinestackchallenge on @libertyisreading ‘s account! I figured I would give my own stack a try since it’s been so sunny here recently! 💛 All of the books pictured here were phenomenal contemporary/ romance books that I have adored! They all have fun, summery vibes with a hint of seriousness to make them feel realistic and sweet. Also I learned that I have a ton of yellow contemporary books (many more not pictured) 😂 Pictured in this stack: ☀️Carry On by #rainbowrowell ☀️Life’s Too Short by #abbyjimenez ☀️Don’t Date Rosa Santos by #ninamoreno ☀️Meet Cute by #helenahunting ☀️Take a Hint, Dani Brown by #taliahibbert
