I read Piñata by Leopoldo Gout for a book club and here are my thoughts. I liked the prologue of this book. I will mention that more than once in this review.

What’s the purpose of this post? Realistically, weekends are more conducive to productivity for me and the blog. My weekdays are consumed by a full-time finance position in Higher Education, keeping home, reading, whatever else comes up and now drafting blog posts. Lately, I’ve shared ‘Weekend Reads’ posts to social media, and as of recently, I’ve realized how long-winded those have been.

Ya’ll, time has been escaping me lately. I’m not sure where it goes. In this week’s Week in Reading (October 1-7, 2023) I accomplished quite a bit.

Burn Down, Rise Up is a thrill of a book. The writing is informational, tense, and easy to digest. Set in the Bronx, New York, it’s observed that people are steadily disappearing without a trace. The disappearances command the attention of our main character Raquel, her best friend Aaron, his brother, Mario, and a friend ‘not a friend’, Charlize.
