Thanks so much to @loritecler.bsky.social for this great review of LOLA REYES IS SO NOT WORRIED. 😊
loritecler.bsky.social Lori Tecler @loritecler.bsky.social · Dec 16
In LOLA REYES IS SO NOT WORRIED by @cindylrodriguez.bsky.social, Lola finds her late father’s worry dolls. She ignores a warning on the box & brings them home in her suitcase. After she shares her worries w/the dolls, they come to life, forcing her to team up w/a frenemy to capture them. #mglit 1/2
Cover of LOLA REYES IS SO NOT WORRIED by Cindy L. Rodriguez. A teen girl's back is pressed against a bank of purple lockers, arms and legs spread out. Guatemalan worry dolls are peeking out of the locker. A teen boy is standing to the left of the girl. He is holding a lacrosse stick and trying to catch a worry doll that is gleefully running away.

Yesterday, I posted that LOLA REYES IS SO NOT WORRIED was mentioned on WFSB-3 during a feature w/River Bend Bookshop about Best Books to Give for the Holidays. Here is the link if you want to watch the segment. They talk about LOLA starting at 3:26.

How exciting! A friend sent me a picture of his TV saying, “You’re book is on the news.” I had no idea, but Channel 3 did a feature w/River Bend Bookshop & they highlighted LOLA REYES IS SO NOT WORRIED as one of the best books to give for the holidays!
