It's a ⭐️review for @victorpineiro.bsky.social's upcoming MG novel! "A vibrant blend of contemporary coming of age with mythological adventure. Nico’s unforgettable summer is deeply rooted in love for family, storytelling, and the history of a place that is both magical and real."

COVER REVEAL! Thrilled to finally share THE ISLAND OF FORGOTTEN GODS with you. It’s my third book and is very close to my heart. It’s a #MG book all about Puerto Rico. It starts as a childhood memoir, then morphs into a horror-tinged adventure full of Boricua monsters and gods. #sourcebooks #kidlit

Come say hi #NCTE2024!

Hi Bluesky! I write middle grade & YA books that are exuberant or the opposite, play with mythology and usually star Boricuas. By day I lead digital innovation and influencers at HBO / Max and am otherwise heavily dadding and/or walking in a forest. Gosh this feels overdue.
