No quiero tus besos
by Iris Romero BermejoCuenta la leyenda que toda chica debería poner un bombero en su vida, pero las malas lenguas también cuentan que uno solo de sus besos pondrá tu vida patas arriba. Parece que Mía no estaba el día que se repartió la suerte, porque de un plumazo se queda sin novio, sin trabajo, y a cargo de su hermana pequeña; un verdadero demonio con coletas, y de la que, encima, no sabe quién es el padre (aunque sospecha que es chino). Pero a Leo sí que le ha sonreído la suerte. Trabaja como bombero, su pasión desde pequeño, vive soltero y entero, y no pasa dos noches seguidas con la misma chica, porque según su teoría, no hay dos sin tres, y a la tercera va la vencida, que en su idioma significa compromiso, lo cual le provoca una alergia mortal. ¿El problema? Que Mía y Leo son amigos. Y vecinos. Y, aunque ninguno de los dos quiere reconocerlo, están hechos el uno para el otro... eso siempre que no se maten en el intento de comenzar una relación, claro.

Five members of the Halliday family have been brutally killed.

The police are soon convinced that the deaths were a murder-suicide carried out by a broken and desperate Chafin Halliday, but Wylie’s not so sure. As Wylie begins his own investigation with the help of his friend Bay Lettique—a poker-playing sleight-of-hand artist with links to the Everglades County underworld—he discovers a web of corruption involving the police union, Ponzi-scheming lawyers, county politicians, and the Russian mob. What follows is a heart-stopping, edgy novel that introduces a completely original crime solver.

I can't wait to be menopausal with skunk-like grey track lines in my hair, saggier tits, and miserable as shit.

It's a push we all have to make - whether it be in our confidence over our bodies, who we are as people, or what goes on inside our mind - and we all have to work at it. It's baby steps. So let's take it back to those tiny steps, because all mountains that are climbed don't happen without practice, perseverance, self-belief and a fuck ton of work.
