A Best Book of 2023 - USA Today, Vogue.com, HipLatina, Largehearted Boy

"With tongue-in-cheek humor and sharp cultural criticism, this novel is an unforgettable exploration of diasporic identity politics and the dangers of wanting to belong at any cost." —Xochitl Gonzalez, The TODAY Show

"Lozada-Oliva's apocalyptic debut novel in prose is an ode to complicated family dynamics, the overwhelming ways love can consume and eat us alive." —Pamela Avila, USA Today


Your granddaughters are lost, Candelaria. Bianca, the brainy archaeologist, had to forfeit her life's work in Guatemala after her advisor seduced and deserted her. Paola, missing for over a decade, resurfaces in Boston as a brainwashed wellness cultist named Zoe. And Candy, the youngest, is a recovering addict who finds herself pregnant by a man she's not even sure ever existed. None of this concerns you of course, until a cataclysmic earthquake hits Boston. Now you must traverse the crumbling city to reach the Watertown Mall Old Country Buffet—for a reason you still cannot disclose—battling strange entities and your own strange past to save your granddaughters and possibly the world.

Author of Dreaming of You Melissa Lozada-Oliva delivers an unsettling, raucous debut novel written with tongue-in-cheek humor and sharp cultural criticism that unearths one troubled family’s legacy, feasting on diasporic identity politics and examining the limits of bodily autonomy and the dangers of wanting to belong at any cost.

A sweeping, mystical novel following three generations of women as they grapple with muddled pasts and predetermined futures, Candelaria is a story of love that eats us alive.

These were perfect for our tropical destination wedding
Size: 9.5 Wide, Color: 8/Tan, Size: 9.5 Wide, Color: 8/Tan
I bought these for my husband to wear at our tropical destination wedding. They are fairly lightweight so they didn’t add too much weight to the luggage. He needs a wide in some shoes, others he can get away with a normal width. He said he felt really good. I would definitely recommend, and I would buy again.

Nice look, nice price, but not durable
Size: 12, Color: 8/Black
I really like the way the shoes looked, and the price was good. Unfortunately, the seam first busted after only about 5 months. It has been about 10 months now, and the seam is busting all the way around the shoe.

Size: 10.5, Color: 8/Brown
I’ve been wearing these Bruno Marc Men’s Casual Dress Shoes for a while now, and they have exceeded my expectations! The quality and craftsmanship are impressive for the price, and they look just as stylish as high-end brands. One of the best things about these shoes is their comfort—even after long hours on my feet, they still feel great. The cushioned insole provides solid support, and the fit is just right. Whether I’m at work, attending an event, or just out and about, these shoes hold up beautifully. Durability is another plus. The materials feel sturdy, and the stitching is well done. I also love the versatility—they pair well with dress pants, chinos, or even jeans. Overall, these shoes are a fantastic value. If you’re looking for a stylish, comfortable, and affordable pair of dress shoes, I highly recommend them!
