A little about me.

Hola world! My name is Andrea and I was born in the beautiful country of Colombia. I developed a love for traveling from my abuelita, who is not afraid of a plane ride. I enjoy submerging myself in a good thriller novel, while indulging in uno or dos cafecitos. Cafecito with Drea was born from my addiction to caffeine (yes I admit it) and because writing, reading, and drinking coffee for me make me who I am. Welcome to my blog and I hope I can inspire to get out of your comfort zone, pick up a book or two, live a little louder, and stay wild. Salud!

The Invisible Life of Addie Larue - By: V.E. Schwab.

πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’› 5/5 “...it is sad, of course, to forget. But it is a lonely thing, to be forgotten. To remember when no one else does.” V.E.

But this book.... oh this book was everything that I needed and much more.  So let me dive into this before I lose my mojo again.  ❤️ Who Is Addie?   Addie is a 23 year old woman from a small village outside or Paris.

In a last desperate attempt, she runs into the darkness and prays to the wrong God. When the...

The Vanishing Half. By: Brit Bennett.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5  Mallard, a town in Louisiana founded in 1848 by Alphonse Decuir. “As he stood in the sugarcane fields he’d inherited from the father who’d once owned him. The father now dead, the now-freed son wished to build something on those acres of land that would last for centuries to come. A town for men like him, who would never be accepted as white but refused to be treated as Negroes.” - The vanishing half, Brit Bennett.  πŸ›A quick background of this fantastic book: twin girls, the sisters Vignes grew up in the town of Mallard. They are the great granddaughters of Alphonse Decuir, and can both pass as white women. When the pressure from growing up in a town where they were not allowed to marry anyone darker than them set in, the sisters disappeared. Both took two different paths, one returning to Mallard after an abusive marriage, and the other sister becoming a white woman and moving to a prominent suburb in Los Angeles.  πŸ›Drea’s take: I have a ton of emotions...
