The Last Flight-By: Julie Clark.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️5/5

Hola! It has been a little while since I last wrote my last book review, and I finished The Last Flight about 2 weeks ago! 🤦🏽‍♀️ I will get the hang of Blogging one sweet day.


🚫 Just a note regarding The Last Flight, if you are sensitive to topics such as domestic violence and drugs, this book may not be a fit.


🐛Just a little bit about The Last Flight, the book follows the life of two women, who unfortunately were given a bad hand at life. Circumstance led to one having to drop out of College and sell narcotics. The other woman is in a very unhappy marriage, with an abusive husband, who happens to be a very powerful man running for a Senator seat.

Coincidentally, the two women meet at the airport, and decide to switch boarding passes. One woman lands Safely in San Francisco, while the other woman is on a plane that crashes in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean.

🐛Drea’s Take: WOW right?? Just reading the synopsis I was so intrigued, I had to add this book to my Book Of The Month cart. This is one of those books that you cannot put down, and will probably take someone in a pandemic 3 days to read it. 

What I really wanted to draw on, is that for most of the book I was annoyed at both of these women. If they made a mistake and were about to get caught, (It is a thriller guys) I would get upset, put my book down and find a reason to be mad for the decision taken.  
But that is where the author hit home the message of the book. How important it is for us to look at the women in our life. Some women are struggling hard right now, and we need to be patient and read the signs of abuse or depression. Some women have been dealt a sorry card at life, and we must be compassionate and try to understand that life is not all laughter and happy moments.


I truly recommend reading this book, and I will even go as far as saying... Get in the shoes of these women, really think about how blessed your life is. If there is someone in your life struggling, be there with a helping hand and an open mind.

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!

My 2023 In Books

Hello all! I haven’t kept up with this blog in a while, and sadly 2023 was truly not my year (Insert Friends themed song) but like the theme song of FRIENDS, books were definitely there for me last year, and I did have a great book-ish year.   My goal was to read 3 books of 400 pages or more, and I read 6.  I ended up reading 26 books. My top 5 books of 2023 were:  5 -   Educated by Tara Westover. 4 - The Wedding Sewing Circle by Jennifer Ryan. 3 - Tomorrow And Tomorrow And Tomorrow by Gabrielle Zevin. 2 - The Light Pirate by Lilly Brooks- Dalton. 1 - The Collected Regrets of Clover by Mikki Brammer. Some of the books I read were really not planned. Honestly I am a fiction lover gal and reading 3 memoirs was new for me, but all 3 memoirs were absolutely fantastic.   My goal this year is to read 35 books. The biggest challenge is to read all of my TBR books seating and collecting dust. I will also be writing more reviews and getting back to my old routines. Somet...

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

💛💛💛💛💛 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. Schwab , The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue Ok I will admit, I have been on a writing slump. Between the election and the time change, my inner clock and anxiety have been a hot mess. 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. Addie is strong-willed, ambitious, adventurous, curious. Everything that a woman from the 1700’s should not be. Addie has dreams of traveling, meeting people, and not staying in the village to raise kids and just die ( I loved this girl from day one)  When Addie is set up to marry a recent widow, she is unable to accept this faith. In a last desperate attempt, she runs into the darkness and prays to the wrong God. When the...
