There seems to be nobody to help her shoulder the overwhelming responsibilities and grief her circumstances have forced her to undertake, and with her new status of motherhood, she doubts anyone would even try stepping up to the mantel.

She has to learn the reins of being a put-together adult and guardian, while also settling into the new life they are making for themselves in a new city and neighborhood. Having just barely gotten the grasp of adulthood, Diana is now forced to grapple with the challenge of forcing down her grief to be the guiding figure she knows the children need her to be. Instead, tragedy strikes in the form of her brother and sister in law’s untimely death, leaving her the sole guardian of the two children they left behind. This is what makes Diana Casillas, the heroine of this novel, and her story the perfect candidate through which Zapata can showcase her talents.Īt the age of twenty-nine, Diana is a struggling mother, though she did not claim this title through any doing of her own. The true magic behind her simple, yet poignant writing, is her sheer understanding and knowledge of human emotion. Just as she has done in her previous works, Zapata manages to play both the telepath, and the ferryman, sucking you into the subconscious of her protagonist as she takes you on a boat ride you’re unlikely to forget. Well, that last part may be a bit of a stretch, but to say this book may very well earn its place in one of the top spots of your favorite reads of the year is no exaggeration. That’s where this article comes in, to show you the light that Mariana Zapata’s slow burn romance novel, ‘ Wait For It ’, can bring into your life, and to shove it down your throats mercilessly. (Shh, look away from the pile of unread books left on your shelf.) There are, however, quite a few dis-pleasures that come to mind that I can list off the top of my head, the most annoying being the search for that perfect transition book for when you’re stewing in the pit your previous read left you in, and coming up utterly, despairingly short.

Is there anything better than curling up on your couch, or in the corner of a cafe, a mug of steaming coffee in your hand (or tea, we don’t judge here) as you open up a good book to get lost in?
