Vuelve Elísabet Benavent con una novela diferente en la que el protagonista es él. Imagina: eres un tiburón de las finanzas estilo lobo de Wall Street, perteneces a una buena familia y siempre lo has tenido todo; por no hablar de que no hay chica que se te resista. Y cuando estás a punto de rozar la cumbre del éxito con las yemas de los dedos, lo pierdes todo... por tu culpa. Tu única salida es volver a empezar y ahí estás, con tu traje esnob, en un polígono industrial en tu primer día como ceniciento. Pero, tranquilo, Alejo, que este no es el cuento de siempre, ¿o tal vez sí? Después de vender más de 4,500,000 ejemplares de sus obras Elísabet Benavent despliega en Esnob su virtuosismo narrativo para hablarnos de las relaciones de amor en un mundo frenético donde lo habitual es encontrar a la persona a golpe de match. Esnob es una radiografía de las relaciones humanas mordaz e irónica, divertida y tierna, porque en este cuento lo de menos es el final. ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONElísabet Benavent returns with a bold new story, exploring a fresh perspective through an unexpected voice.
Imagine: you are a Wall Street-style financial shark, you come from a good family and you have always had everything; not to mention that no girl can resist you. And just when you're about to reach the pinnacle of success, you lose everything... and it's your own fault. Your only option is to start over, and there you are, in your snobby suit, on an industrial estate on your first day as Cinderello. But don't worry, Alejo, this isn't the same old story. Or is it? After selling more than 4,500,000 copies of her works, Elísabet Benavent displays her narrative virtuosity in Snob to tell us about love relationships in a frenetic world, where it's normal to find the right person at the stroke of a match. Snob is a scathing and ironic, funny and tender X-ray of human relationships, because in this story, the ending is the least important thing.

It was alright
Format: Kindle
Pervious to this book, I had no knowledge of the struggles of the Chinese in the South during the post Civil War era. For that reason, I'm glad I read this book.
I enjoyed that this book discussed and gave perspective on many social issues of that time.
The main character is spunky and likable.
There are many unbelievable scenes and conversations that I did not enjoy because they seemed too far-fetched. Why the author had to include a description of a naked man was also not to my liking. Worst of all, though, was the incredible number of similes in this book. There were just too many, and it got annoying.
Overall, it was good enough to read, but I do not highly recommend it.

A Chinese in Atlanta
Format: Kindle
The Girl Downstairs was a charming book. Although the writing isn’t particularly sophisticated, it felt like Jo was letting us peek into the pages of her diary—raw, honest, and deeply personal. Her journey, as the main character, was both heartwarming and heartbreaking. Through her eyes, we witness the simple beauty of connection and the ugly truth of prejudice that has plagued our country for far too long. It’s a powerful reminder that humanity should never be measured by the color of one’s skin. This is another great YA read—I highly recommend it.

Atlanta During the 1890's
Format: Paperback
Whether you like The Downstairs Girl or not depends on what you crave. If you crave historical fiction that will teach you, or that helps you realize the myriad of things that were going on in a certian place and time (Atlanta during the 1890s, or an imaginative author who never use trite metaphors or similes, you will love this book. Or if you want to quickly turn pages, you will be disappointed. If you want a simple plot, do not read this book. If you want an intricately spun story with plenty of mystrey, humor and many surprises, you will love it.
Jo Kuan is a Chinese American without voting rights, deStined to be a servang and doesn;t knw who her mother or father are, lives in a basement of a family with Old Gin who she thinks of as old man who adopted not offically but out of love. Chinese Americans were brought into the South after the Civil War to take over what slaves used to do but instead of no pay, they got tiny pay. You could walk or take a streetcar to work. Blacks sat the back of the streetcars, but if you were Chinese American, you didn't know where you sat or were told to gat off. They could not own or rent, where were you supposed to live; It was the start of Jim Crow laws and of cocoa cola. Women suffragettes started working towards the vote of white women. This was not a quiet oeriod of history.
I thoroughly enjoyed this peak at Atlanta in the 1890's through an Asian American young woman's eyes, ears and even her nose.
