Single Chicas is a smart and funny collection of stories centering on the lives of modern Latinas. Young women pursue their dreams while simultaneously navigating the complexities of contemporary relationships. Along the way each woman struggles to maintain her precious independence.

The great thing about short stories is that they are short. So in our busy world, with our frenzied schedules, we can pick up a book like this between appointments, shopping, meals, whatever, catch a story or two, come back when time permits to read another.
Having said that, I will admit that I read this wonderful collection almost straight through. I found the writing so engaging, the characters so colorful, the stories such a good time, I couldn't put this short collection down.
You'll smile. You'll laugh. You'll cry. Author Sandra Lopez has the recipe for slices of life with lots of spice. These stories will rock tu mundo!

Lopez is young and hip and her vernacular shows it! Each short story is fun and each has a surprise ending that I likened to Rod Serling in modern times. It was such a fun read, I kept reading each short story until I finished the book.
