This blog is an intimate space where Mercy’s writing extends beyond her books. Each reflection stems from the same impulse that guides her stories: understanding the inner world, illuminating the shadows, and honoring the memories and connections that sustain us. Her voice moves between the real and the subtle, between the everyday and the magical, exploring profound emotions, symbolic memories, and invisible connections that can sometimes only be expressed through fantasy.
In this section, each recommended book becomes an intimate conversation with the reader: a mini-blog where she shares the readings that inspire, accompany, or transform her. Here you’ll find sincere reviews that not only narrate what a book tells, but also what it awakens; texts that engage with the themes Mercy writes about: magic, the feminine, memory, and spirituality. These themes are added month after month to build a shared literary journey where words heal, inspire, and accompany.

One Hundred Years of Solitude is a monumental
This blog is written slowly, like all worthwhile things.
The next post will be ready next month.
I close out 2025 with profound gratitude. My time at the Guadalajara International Book Fair was the perfect ending to an intense year, full of encounters, readings, and conversations that have left their mark and reaffirmed the purpose of the journey I’ve taken.
2026 is already beginning to take shape with new projects: the arrival of the Forgiveness Workshop and initial conversations with the Glendale Public Library, which are opening doors to ideas and work that will bring me back to Los Angeles.
Now the holidays are here, and with them, a time of chosen pause: sharing with loved ones, a good cup of coffee in hand, and the first lines of a new novel that is beginning to take shape, still without any spoilers, as it should be.
I wish you very happy holidays and a new year filled with peace, inspiration, and genuine connections.
