Remembering Selena : A Tribute In Pictures & Words from St. Martin's Griffin Customer Review:  This book is awsome!!! At least to me and some other fellows. I do not agree with the lady who did not like the book. The fact that she mentioned there was a picture of Selena dead during the funeral only made me want the book even more. I am not morbid, I actually like lively things, like stars,... |

Mangos, Bananas and Coconuts: A Cuban Love Story from Riverhead Books Customer Review: Novas weaves together a magical tragic perverted story... sounds strangely intriguing, right? It is a pretty quick read (about 160 pages), and while I cringed at some of the occurrences because of what I, the reader, knew and the characters were still finding out, it was still a beautiful story. |

Secada! from Signet Book Customer Review: This book gives a decent amount of information about how Jon Secada became a star, but it could have gone farther. I think it was a great idea to have the book in English and Spanish, but a little more content would be nice. The book is worth buying just for the great pictures inside. |
