Best Book Ever


Mar 1, 2021

Sometimes, I’m so excited to talk to a guest that I’m actually a little bit nervous. Such was the case with Jenifer LaMadrid Rosales, the creator of one of my favorite Bookstagram accounts, @librosytierra. Jen was just as funny, honest, and thought provoking in conversation as she is in her social media. I was thrilled and honored that she joined me to talk about her reading life, and why “A Cup of Water Under My Bed” by Daisy Hernandez is the Best Book Ever.
