The Luis Ortega Survival Club

De: Sonora Reyes

Narrado por: Elisa Meléndez

From the bestselling author of the National Book Award Finalist The Lesbiana’s Guide to Catholic School comes a revenge story told with nuance, heart, and the possibility of healing. An ideal next story for fans of Laurie Halse Anderson.

Ariana Ruiz wants to be noticed. But as an autistic girl who never talks, she goes largely ignored by her peers—despite her bold fashion choices. So when cute, popular Luis starts to pay attention to her, Ari finally feels seen.

Luis’s attention soon turns to something more, and they have sex at a party—while Ari didn’t say no, she definitely didn’t say yes. Before she has a chance to process what happened and decide if she even has the right to be mad at Luis, the rumor mill begins churning—thanks, she’s sure, to Luis’s ex-girlfriend, Shawni. Boys at school now see Ari as an easy target, someone who won’t say no.

Then Ari finds a mysterious note in her locker that eventually leads her to a group of students determined to expose Luis for the predator he is. To her surprise, she finds genuine friendship among the group, including her growing feelings for the very last girl she expected to fall for. But in order to take Luis down, she’ll have to come to terms with the truth of what he did to her that night—and risk everything to see justice done.

This is officially my favorite book of all time

I want to start off by saying that I have never liked reading. Until I found this book. This book had me laughing one minute, crying, the next, but on the edge of my seat the entire time. This is a great book for young people, because the language that is used in it is very casual and familiar to us. Well, I was reading this, it felt like I was watching a show or having a conversation with somebody. 10000/10 y’all should definitely read it!!

No clichés here!

A story that gives voice to the (literally) voiceless and avoids the clichés of Queer YA romance. I didn’t want it to be over.

it was very well written

thus was a very good book. you will enjoy the way it is written and the story is told!

Couldn’t stop listening!

This is the second book I’ve read from this author. She really brings you into their world. I am becoming a huge fan of her work!

Loved this audiobook

Just finished listening to the audiobook!
Another great one by Sonora Reyes! I need to digest this book, but I only have great things to say. I loved the friendships and sense of community and belonging, and the queer love, although queer love is not the emphasis in this book it is very sweet which reminded me of The Lesbiana's Guide to Catholic School.
Great narration of this audiobook!
I got teary eyed at the end! The frienships are so sweet!
