Natalie Caña is proof that you don't have to stick your head in the sand to be able to escape into a book. A Dish Best Served Hot serves up tough topics with realism, sensitivity, grace, and sometimes tough doses of reality. And yet the whole read still give those fuzzy romance vibes from beginning to end.
Natalie's characters are *perfection* in this series. I love the Vega family and everyone they pull into their orbit. The dialogue is so well written. Lola is probably my favorite female main character of the year. I identify with so much about Lola, namely her physique and how she has felt about her body in different parts of her life.
I don't read a ton of romance with kids but Rosie is arguably the lead of this book. The most adorable kiddo and excellently crafted into this story.
I truly loved everything about this book and the third book in the series is 100%, hands down my most anticipated book of 2024.
