REESE'S BOOK CLUB PICK Winner for of The Rudolfo Anaya Best Latino Focused Fiction Book Award, 2022. With quick-wit and humor, Maria Amparo Escand? follows the Alvarado family as they wrestle with impending evacuations, secrets, deception, and betrayal, and their toughest decision yet: whether to stick together or burn it all down. L.A. is parched, dry as a bone, and all Oscar, the weather-obsessed patriarch of the Alvarado family, desperately wants is a little rain. He?s harboring a costly secret that distracts him from everything else. His wife, Keila, desperate for a life with a little more intimacy and a little less Weather Channel, feels she has no choice but to end their marriage. Their three daughters ?Claudia, a television chef with a hard-hearted attitude; Olivia, a successful architect who suffers from gentrification guilt; and Patricia, a social media wizard who has an uncanny knack for connecting with audiences but not with her lovers?are blindsided and left questioning everything they know. Each will have to take a critical look at her own relationships and make some tough decisions along the way.
