#ana maria and the fox

[readtilyoudie]

Her pretty face turned contemplative. “Those in power have grown desensitized. It’s easy to prioritize concerns and plans of action when certain issues do not affect you directly.” Ana María’s mouth quirked. “Or there is a profit to be made.”

“Ah, money. The world’s great evil.”

“Isn’t that why armies invade and far-off countries exert dominance over others? To claim their resources, be that gold, silver, land, or human flesh?” A deep sigh seemed to drain her. “It’s why I speak Spanish and why you fight for those who have been stolen away from their homelands.”

Ana María and the Fox by Liana de la Rosa

❝ You're like a prism, displaying your thoughts and emotions in an array of colorful expressions. I'm sure I could watch you all day. ❞

[marvelousgeeks]

Ana María and The Fox by Liana De la Rosa is a thoughtfully written historical romance that focuses on spreading the comforts of a true connection and the joys of sisterhood. It’s one of the few novels that acutely and beautifully showcases the hardships and joys of being an elder sibling, making the titular character so easy to root for. There’s much to appreciate about the text from the start, and the characterization is at the top of the list. De la Rosa undoubtedly understands the importance of little moments equating to big things, and the narrative is proof of this face.

When it comes to historical romances especially, there’s an escapism that shines best when the text acknowledges the cruelties of the time, making the countrysides and elegant ballrooms much better. It’s why a show like Bridgerton works because it dives into a more inclusive world and highlights the best parts of humanity through its characters. At the same time, Ana María and The Fox by Liana De la Rosa feels like the kind of novel that would translate onto the screen so exquisitely that the thought alone is exhilarating. The stunning exposition and world-building are so easy to imagine, and picturesque that one merely needs to close their eyes to envision everything. (But what’s better than seeing it visually too?)

BOOK REVIEW: ANA MARIA AND THE FOX BY LIANA DE LA ROSA

⭐⭐⭐⭐

TROPES 💛 Marriage of Convenience 💛 Mutual Pining 💛 Dual POV

What isn’t to love about this book? There’s a great romance, there’s a political plot you can’t help but root for our MCs in, and there’s a group of sisters with amazing sibling dynamics.

Ana María and her sisters Isabel and Gabby have left their home in Mexico due to the war with France, taking refuge in London with their uncle. It’s wonderful to watch the sisters finally get more of a say in their lives, getting to attend events and not be constantly under their father’s thumb. Though we see it through Ana María’s eyes, the personalities of each sister are obvious, and I can’t wait to see that further explored in the next book.

Gideon, the MMC, reminds me so much of Anthony Bridgerton in how much he is forcing himself to stay away and not think about what could be with Ana Maria. The two men differ on everything else, but it was wonderful to read something similar to media I enjoy and see it work just as well.

The third act took me on a roller coaster I was not expecting and it was awesome. It’s exactly the action and surprise that I like in books but I don’t often find in the romances I read.

So, when Ana María is secretly sent to London with her sisters to seek refuge during the French occupation of Mexico, she experiences her first taste of freedom far from the judgmental eyes of her domineering father. If only she could ignore the piercing…

12, 15, & 20 for the book asks?

Thank you, friend! <3

12. Any books that disappointed you?

In particular, I was very disappointed by Ana Maria and the Fox by Liana De la Rosa. I might have been less disappointed if I hadn't waited for months to get it off of my library holds list, or if some romance authors I follow hadn't hyped it up.

While I did appreciate the look into an aspect of history that I wasn't familiar with (the French occupation of Mexico), I found the lead female character very tiresome.

15. Did you read any books that were nominated for or won awards this year (Booker, Women’s Prize, National Book Award, Pulitzer, Hugo, etc.)? What did you think of them?

Not really! I tend to read a lot of thrillers and historical romance. I think Babel by R.F. Kuang won a Nebula last year, and The Maid has won a bunch of smaller awards. I also read The Hate U Give this year, even though it's definitely not a new book.

I absolutely loved Babel (like, I couldn't stop thinking about it when I finished it and even wrote a Tumblr post about it). I also loved The Hate U Give, although it was not an easy read. The Maid was a little disappointing--I liked it on first read but the more I thought about it, the less I liked it. But I think I was in the minority there, since it's very popular.

20. What was your most anticipated release? Did it meet your expectations?

Oh man, it was Georgie, All Along by Kate Clayborn. And yes, it absolutely met my expectations. Exceeded them, honestly. The whole summary smacked of adorkable manic pixie dream girl energy, but I trust Kate Clayborn as a writer, and she delivered a really wonderful romantic novel. Highly recommend!

End of the year book asks!

moment of appreciation for this cover 💜

[ranpd]

EVERYONE(or just whoever wants to participate lol)’S FAVORITE COLOR, GO

IH MY GODDD ok this could take forever if i went through every individual member but as the guy who knows like Everything im qualified to get as far as i can off the top of my head. What’s up everyone my name is clover and today we’re reviewing colors (can you tell im so tired)

i (clover) like green (of course)

Seth likes red & blue; Jev likes purple; ran likes green; fox really likes purples & pinks; i think silence & x just like navy blue

i actually got around to asking a couple people also. Siren said it likes brown or beige. I know Idia likes blue. I asked Ana but she said some shit like “I don’t have a favorite anything, only least favorites” (this is a lie, I know her favorite person) but I think it’s some stupid shit like gray. Cave likes dark red uhhhhh Dazai likes light blue Atsu likes pastel colors Daz likes yellow both Charlotte and Lucie like the same shade of bright reddish pink Floyd likes hot pink and like neon colors generally Rabbit & Elliot like red Amber & Max like orange Eleanor likes pink Rocket likes any bright color she can get her hands on JJ also said pai doesn’t have a favorite color but I think pais lying and it’s dark red. Oh my god that’s a long sentence

Elizabeth likes pink, Maria actually doesn’t have a favorite color, Soho & Rain like blue, Caroline likes purple, I think Fyo and Niko also like purple but I can’t tell if it’s actually their favorite or if they’re just gay. I don’t know what Ranpo likes and Zazie is the number one green defender. Uhhhhh Noxi likes blue Dom likes pink Jes says he loves all colors equally and honestly I believe her. A1-30 would kill me before admitting she likes blue and K likes purple. Christ alive that’s all im doing tonight this was way longer than anticipated

@fcused said: ' can i paint your nails? ' + @quietevasions said ' this is a good look for you ' + @meatriarch bc ur kids are here also AGFDSGFDS. don't ask why this is so long sorry for the random drabble

the party at the house over was a bust — and with their plans all but falling through for the night, the group had moped their way back to maria's apartment. the living room was filled with the warm, scratchy hum of her record player, while people settled with their drinks.

sonny and danny on the couch, vaguely heckling whatever movie was playing on the tv. ana was perched on the arm, peering across the room every so often, and putting some more lines down in her sketchpad. she was probably sketching out some of maria's plants, arranged on the mantle. maria and julie were hovering by the kitchen chatting indistinctly, but animatedly.

and leland had sprawled himself flat on his back on the floor, by where connie was painting her nails. she was about done, double-checking them now that they were dried. he tilts his head to peer up at her.

❝ how do you that without messing up? ❞

upside-down connie makes a softly amused sound; ' it's just practice, ' her fox eyes flick to meet his; ' ... here, ' she posits, making a come here gesture, ' can i paint your nails? ' and leland shoots a skeptical brow to her;

❝ do i get to pick the colour? ❞ he asks, and connie huffs a gentle laugh;

' of course. ' and then, she calls toward the kitchen from over her shoulder; ' maria, do you have any blues? ' she holds out the red nail polish bottle she'd just used on herself, to demonstrate what she means.

maria pops her head out from the kitchen with a thoughtful sound and a ' lemme check! ', before she disappears down the hall.

leland's brows furrow playfully at connie; ❝ how do you know i want blue? ❞

connie looks at him like this might be his stupidest question yet; ‘ because i know you. ‘ a small roll of her eyes, and she lightly pokes him in the chest of his blue shirt. well, she was right, anyway; his wardrobe almost entirely boiled down to blues and browns. nothing special, nothing too bright. sometimes he envied the way sonny dressed; unapologetic warm colours and patterns — he always looked cool, leland thought.

a few moments later, maria returns with a small handful of nail polish bottles, crouching to set them down on the low coffee table. they were mostly different shades of blue.

leland lazily rolls up into a sitting position. he pulls his legs to cross under him, scooting closer as he presents both hands, fingers splayed toward connie. his nails are pretty short, kind of scuffed up; probably not great canvases to work on, all things considered.

he remembers back when he was little, april had painted his nails a couple times, too. which dad kind of hated. and sadie had, once, while complaining thoroughly to him about some of the girls on her cheer team.

connie lets him pick from the blues, and he squints between a few options, before pointing out a dark navy. matched his shirt. would probably match everything, right? girls were always worrying about that kind of thing.

' are we doing a makeover? ' julie's head pops out from around the kitchen island. leland immediately tries for damage control, mouth opening and closing dumbly;

❝ wait. that's not — ❞ he's cut off as julie swans her way into the room. she sets her drink down, digging through her purse momentarily for something. she emerges with a makeup bag, before coming to join connie and maria. she sits down, too, and suddenly he's surrounded.

❝ dan, i'm being descended upon, ❞ leland whines, melodramatically, in danny's general direction. who does little more than scoff and reply; ' do your time, chico de oro. '

leland pouts at him; not very helpful, dan.

this was literally just like being home; arguing was futile, the only choice was surrender. he could always wash it off before next practice, right?

leland blinks as he watches them line up their arsenal of makeup and tiny little brushes on the coffee table.

maria perches on his other side, gently parting some of his hair away from the rest. she hums thoughtfully as she pins it back, and out of his face for him with one of her butterfly clips.

it feels kind of weird not to have the cover of his bangs. like his eyebrows were just kind of out there? brows that furrow as he watches the girls arrange themselves, so connie can take one of his hands to place on her knee, and julie can get way closer than he was prepared for. his cheeks flush for a moment, trying to figure out where he's supposed to be looking.

❝ uh — ❞ he clears his throat awkwardly, dodging everyone's eyes. then, he resolves to shoot a vaguely helpless look across the room to ana — who gives him an amused smile as she continues to work.

julie beams at him cheerily; ' it'll be fun, i promise. ' a beat, and she nods to herself resolutely; ' okay! eyes closed, mckinney, ' she commands him.

so he closes his eyes — albeit with a small pout. he can feel one of her makeup brushes dusting over his eyelids. which mostly tickles, and makes him scrunch his nose. she does the same to the other eye, and he tries to resist opening them too early. then she starts with a smaller brush, along the crease of his eyes. and it seems like she works at that forever.

he can tell maria is entertaining herself with braiding a section of hair at the back of his head, undoing it, and repeating the action.

kind of itches. leland's hand starts to move toward his face distractedly, but connie tactically pins it back down; ' those aren't dry yet, stop fidgeting. ' she lightly scolds him, still laser focused on her task of doing his other hand. one eye sneaks open; the blue looked nice, he thought.

meanwhile, julie frowns at her handiwork; ' ...oh. i smudged it a bit, but it still looks ok, i think. '

❝ — you think? ❞ distressing update, to be sure.

' leland, ' connie half-laughs, half-sighs in exasperation.

a blink, and he's paying attention again; ❝ oh. sorry, con. ❞ obediently, he tries his best to keep still. and julie's wielding mascara now, which inspires some mild fear in him. he flinches as soon as the wand gets remotely close to his eye. julie has to pause about ten times, when his eyes get distracted and blink.

' up, look up, lee. ' maria chides, with a laugh. patient as ever. ' you don't want to get poked in the eye, do you? ' he swears he's trying to keep still... and also look up at the ceiling, as julie curls the mascara wand against his lashes. which wasn't a great feeling — kind of weird, really — but he fights not to blink, and ruin julie's hard work.

❝ — so like. you put this on on purpose? this is like... this has to be some type of torture in some country — ❞ he blinks, and does very nearly get poked in the eye for it.

he's never been more aware of his eyelashes.

then, julie's using one of the larger, softer brushes on the highs of his cheeks; ' this is a good look for you, ' she hums, sounds all too proud of herself.

leland feels his face heat up again, suddenly self-conscious; ❝ you're teasing me, now. ❞ he huffs an accusation. julie pauses her ministrations, and purses her lips at him playfully. gives his cheeks a small squeeze between her thumb and fingertips; ' never, babe. i'm serious. you look good. ' he doesn't entirely believe her, but that had less to do with his doubt in her abilities, and more to do with his own face.

his next protest is cut short, as julie administers lipgloss with surgical precision, next. connie's, he realizes. because it tasted like cherry.

' — there, perfect. ' with the finishing touches done, julie beams again, tips of her fingers delicate as she turns him by the jaw to check him over. then, she wordlessly exchanges notes with connie and maria — the way girls do in secret eye-movement language — and the committee seems satisfied. maria carefully retrieves the colourful clips from his hair.

connie turns a pocket mirror to face him, and leland startles out something between a laugh and a slightly choked noise; ❝ — oh. whoa. ❞ useful response. he's not totally sure how to feel, at first. julie had picked out a deep blue-purple sort of colour for his eyeshadow. his face looked sharper than usual. or something.

' see? it totally brings out your eyes, ' julie elaborates. they all chirp and coo their enthusiasm, and leland ducks his head with another sheepish laugh.

' you look so pretty, ' connie reassures in the gentlest of teasing, eyes warming at the corners as she moves his hair back in place for him.

it was pretty, he decided.

... maybe it didn't all have to come off immediately.

confidence somewhat bolstered, leland turns over his shoulder, and bats his newly done-up lashes at their friends. ❝ — what do you think, ana, dan? williams? am i the prettiest girl at prom, or what? ❞ he looks across them pointedly for their individual validation.

' so pretty, ' ana echoes, and danny snorts. sonny turns, looks, and chokes on a sound into his beer, ' very nice, man, ' he says, diplomatically.

' who's next? ' julie chimes, which sounds a little like a threat. ' c'mon, da-ni-lo? ' she sing-songs as she shoots a deliberate look toward the other boys.

sonny promptly freezes like a deer in the headlights — but the speed at which danny bolts upright to leave the room is honestly impressive. ' oh, no you're not, ' danny asserts, and quickly disengages. he dodges julie — with a quick kiss placed atop her head — to disappear around the corner into the kitchen. mumbling something about needing another drink — and abandoning sonny to be descended upon next.
