"La energía. La claridad. La belleza. Elisabet Velasquez lo tiene todo... ¡Su voz es FUEGO!" --Jacqueline Woodson, autora best seller de The New York Times

Una inolvidable, torrencial y esperanzadora novela debut para adultos jóvenes escrita en verso y que redefine lo que significa "triunfar". Para los lectores de Nicholasa Mohr y Elizabeth Acevedo.

Algunos todavía no tienen el lenguaje, pero ya tienen su historia.

Puertorriqueña de primera generación, Sarai es una adolescente preguntona, capaz de ver claramente el dolor, la verdad y la belleza del mundo que la rodea. Junto a su hermana Estrella, enfrentará los traumas familiares, el machismo y la falta de vivienda en un Brooklyn que se gentrifica rápidamente. Desde muy joven se cuestionará su identidad boricua, la sociedad en la que vive y la vida en general. Una vida que asume con determinación y el corazón abierto para aprender a celebrarse a sí misma como nadie lo había hecho.

Y SI LO LOGRAMOS ES UNA CARTA DE AMOR A LOS QUE LES ENSEÑARON A CREER, ERRÓNEAMENTE, QUE JAMÁS PODRÍAN LOGRARLO.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

"The energy. The clarity. The beauty. Elisabet Velasquez brings it all.... Her voice is FIRE!" --Jacqueline Woodson, New York Times bestselling author

An unforgettable, torrential, and hopeful debut young adult novel in-verse that redefines what it means to "make it," for readers of Nicholasa Mohr and Elizabeth Acevedo.

Sarai is a first-generation Puerto Rican eighth grader who can see with clarity the truth, pain, and beauty of the world both inside and outside her Bushwick apartment. Together with her older sister Estrella, she navigates the strain of family traumas and the systemic pressures of toxic masculinity and housing insecurity in a rapidly gentrifying Brooklyn. Sarai questions the society around her, her Boricua identity, and the life she lives with determination and an open heart, learning to celebrate herself in a way that she has been denied.

When We Make It is a love letter to anyone who was taught to believe that they would not make it. To those who feel their emotions before they can name them. To those who still may not have all the language, but they have their story. Velasquez' debut novel is sure to leave an indelible mark on all who read it.

Very nice pillowcases
Color: 06 - Beige, Size: Standard (20" X 26")
These pillowcases are really nice. They're soft and wash well. I really like the pocket on the end. It makes your pillows look nice and neat. The price is good too.

Love the sheets but GOSH THEY STINK
Color: 19 - Forest Green, Size: Queen (20" X 30")
I have the dark green sheets and bought these for extra cases to match. I would give them 5 stars if it weren’t for the fact that they smell absolutely horrible. I am so surprised after reading reviews that more people don’t mention it?! Maybe it’s more prominent in darker colors but I have washed these now 3 different times even with scent beads and still hate the smell. I wish I could accurately describe what it smells like— it’s just not good and for some reason, body heat only exacerbates it and makes the smell even worse and I wake up feeling like a smell like the sheets… which isn’t a good thing. Besides that, I do really enjoy them. They feel great on your skin and I love the color. I wish the smell didn’t kill them so badly for me ☹️

Comfy soft pillow covers
Color: 02 - White, Size: Queen (20" X 30"), Color: 02 - White, Size: Queen (20" X 30")
Absolutely love these pillow cases! I bought 2 sets. After I received them & washed & dried them they did remain wrinkly. I just went ahead and put them on my pillows & the wrinkles went away. I continue to love the feel, coolness & comfort. Will definitely buy more.

Color: 03 - Navy, Size: Standard (20" X 26")
Pillow cases are beautiful and soft, great quality. I had to return them because standard were too small. I am going to order queen instead.

These Bamboo Pillowcases Made Me Realize I Sleep Hot
Color: 07 - Cream, Size: Queen (20" X 30"), Color: 07 - Cream, Size: Queen (20" X 30")
I bought these mostly because I kept hearing people talk about bamboo pillowcases and honestly thought it sounded a little overhyped, but I totally get it now. The first thing I noticed was how cool they felt compared to regular cotton. I tend to get warm when I sleep and flip my pillow a million times during the night looking for the cold side, and these actually stay noticeably cooler longer. They also feel really soft without having that weird slippery texture some silky pillowcases have. My skin has been less irritated lately and my hair definitely looks less frizzy in the mornings. I have thick hair that tangles easily overnight, and these have helped more than I expected. Another thing I appreciate is that they’ve washed well so far. I was worried they’d pill or lose softness after a wash cycle, but they still feel smooth and nice. They also just make the bed feel cleaner and more comfortable overall. One of those small upgrades that ends up making a bigger difference than you’d think.
