International Latino Book Awards 2025: Libro más inspiracional no ficción en español. MEDALLA DE ORO * Mejor biografía. MEDALLA DE BRONCE

«¡Bien escrito! No pude dejar de leer. Temas importantes: Parkinson y eutanasia. Recomendaré este libro.» --Comentario de los jueces del ILBA

Me lo dijo sin preámbulos, pero no me tomó por sorpresa. A principios de 2022, mi padre, Carlos Alberto Montaner, me encomendó la misión más difícil y dolorosa de mi vida: «Te pido que me ayudes a morir».


Más de seis años después de ser diagnosticado en Estados Unidos con Parkinson, sus capacidades físicas habían mermado considerablemente y la enfermedad comenzaba a hacer mella en sus facultades cognitivas. Carlos Alberto Montaner, que había dedicado su vida al desempeño intelectual, el activismo político y a expresar sus opiniones en una columna sindicada en América Latina, España y Estados Unidos, decidía el final de su vida antes de que la enfermedad le arrebatara del todo su autonomía física e intelectual. Él deseaba regresar a Madrid, donde había vivido más de cuarenta años y, como ciudadano español, acogerse a la Ley de Eutanasia recientemente aprobada en el Congreso.


Deséenme un buen viaje es una crónica íntima de su trayectoria sin retorno, y la de su hija junto a él, con el trasfondo de la eutanasia. Se trata de un camino lleno de obstáculos e incertidumbre; pero también es un recorrido extraordinario por las emociones, la comunión íntima y la perseverancia frente a la adversidad. Cuenta un viaje del desarraigo -las señas de identidad de una familia marcada por el exilio tras el triunfo de la revolución en Cuba- hacia el arraigo que significó para ellos retornar a España, su segunda patria.

«Gina Montaner ha escrito un credo imprescindible para entender la vida y valorar la muerte. Valiente, sincero y conmovedor. No dejará a nadie indiferente por sus enseñanzas y su sabiduría» --Sonsoles Ónega

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

International Latino Book Awards 2025: Most Inspirational Nonfiction Book. GOLD MEDAL * Best Biography. BRONZE MEDAL

«Well written! I couldn't stop reading. Important topics: Parkinson and euthanasia. I will recommend this book.» --Insight from the ILBA judges

He told me without preamble, but it didn't catch me by surprise. At the beginning of 2022, my father, Carlos Alberto Montaner, gave me the hardest and most painful mission of my life: "I'm asking you to help me die."


Six years after being diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease, his physical and cognitive abilities had decreased considerably. Carlos Alberto Montaner, who had dedicated his life to intellectual pursuits, political activism, and to expressing his opinions through a syndicated column in newspapers throughout Latin America, Spain, and the United States, had decided to end his life before his illness took away the last of his autonomy. He hoped to return to Madrid, where he had lived for over forty years and, as a Spanish citizen, abide by the Law of Euthanasia recently approved by the Spanish Congress.


Deséenme un buen viaje (Wish Me a Good Journey) is the intimate chronicle of a trip with no return. It is a journey of obstacles and uncertainties, but also an extraordinary retelling of vibrant emotions, intimate camaraderie, and perseverance in the face of adversity. This book tells a story of uprooting--the distinctive flag of a family that was exiled from Cuba after the triumph of the revolution--and of their return to Spain, their adopted homeland.

«Gina Montaner has written an essential creed to understand life and value death. Brave, sincere and moving. She will not leave anyone indifferent to his teachings and his wisdom.» --Sonsoles Ónega

Fluffy and Nice Omegaverse
Format: Kindle
… this would have made 5 stars but for 2 reasons. A.) there were quite a few typos; misspelled words, missing quotations, “the his” mistakes, and various signs that maybe a proofread would do good. B.) the writing was quite textbook. Late blooming omega is struggling with her new self, finds a absurdly wealthy pack of alphas, every thing is almost insta-love but she resists, then decides to love herself and let everyone be happy. Rian was my favourite (obviously the author’s favourite too because he got the most page time) but I wish we could see more of his CEO side? He went to work maybe ONCE the entire time. Gray was supposed to be the “growly one” but he turned out to be puppy dog. Lucas was a genius brainiac doctor - but also super alpha with an aggressive hindbrain with a breeding k*nk?? And then there was no actual “breeding”?? Spice 3/5 - normally omegaverse books are super high on messy smut but this was tamer. Romance 3/5 - insta-love that was then resisted because of personal hangup’s Plot 2/5 - weird paced head hopping, showing the same scene from different POV’s that made me feel like it was 2 steps backward, 1 step forward. Humour 4/5 - there were a dozen lines that genuinely made me chuckle out loud Would have been five stars but the lack of proofreading and the predictable plot made me unable to get up to ADORED IT level - four stars is still and official ENJOYED IT, y’all. This isn’t a bad rating. The “Club Heat” has intriguing possibilities so I’m going to give the second one a shot.

Good start to a series
Format: Kindle
I delayed reading the series for reasons I don’t remember. But my TBR list is huge so I thought I’d take a shot of this and I was pleasantly surprised. I didn’t think the blurb about it was anything special. But it was a very good book. It took some interesting twists and turns. I am so glad the second book is already out. Because I would not have waited patiently. Very slow burn but good storyline. 🔥🔥/5

A good read
Format: Kindle
Multiple points of view. 3 Alpha men and an Omega male. She is a Beta in training for a new program placing betas in Alpha/Omega packs. Mila is only doing the program for the money to take care of her dad. She wasn't expecting to fall for a pack but when she sees this packs Omega she is done for. There is just something about him. His Alphas are good looking as well. Too bad she is hiding a secret and their government is acting shady. I liked it and can't wait to see where their story goes.

Slightly repetitive but I did love some things
Format: Kindle
I love this type of story. And omegaverse is one of my all time favorite genres. But there are a few things that pulled me out of my enjoyment while I was reading. It was repetitive at times as well as struggled with telling not showing. So we didn’t always feel like we were experiencing things with the main character. There were also some plot holes but they may still be answered in part 2. Now this isn’t to be said I didn’t enjoy parts of the story. I loved the almost instant love between Mila and Oliver. And how he started changing around her.
