Lupita Aquino in conversation with Alex Espinoza and Ursula Villareal-Moura

Join us for a discussion featuring The Sons of El Rey by Alex Espinoza and Like Happiness by Ursula Villarreal-Moura. These novels explore themes of identity, legacy, and self-acceptance. Espinoza’s book follows a family of luchadores navigating hidden secrets and forbidden love from Mexico City to Los Angeles. Villarreal-Moura’s debut delves into a young woman’s struggle with a past relationship marked by power imbalances and gender dynamics. Discover how both authors address the complexities of queer Latine experiences.

Copies of Espinoza and Villareal-Moura's books will be available for sale and signature by Loyalty Bookstores.
