Este libro es una novela, un ensayo, una autobiografía. La autora emprende en él un viaje al interior en un juego narrativo lleno de sorpresas. En La loca de la casa se mezclan literatura y vida en un cóctel afrodisíaco de biografías ajenas y autobiografía novelada. Y, así, descubrimos que el gran Goethe adulaba a los poderosos hasta extremos ridículos, que Tolstoi era un energúmeno, que Montero, de niña, fue una enana, y que, con veintitrés años, mantuvo un estrafalario y desternillante romance con un famoso actor.

Rosa Barocio, con consejos prácticos y mucho sentido de humor, dedica este libro a maestros interesados en revivir su vocación para no sólo ser buenos maestros, sino maestros extraordinarios.

I wasn’t expecting to be snowed in with her older brother—all six feet of gorgeous, experienced man and the star of every forbidden fantasy I've ever had. One kiss under the mistletoe later, I’m offering him the chance to be my first. The snow kept us trapped. His obsession kept us busy.

I've been obsessed with my brother's best friend for exactly two years, three months, and seventeen days.

I’ve been counting the days and I’m going to make sure every second counts.

One night with a mafia boss. I’m a captive ballerina. He’s a big, arrogant, tattooed Bratva boss who paid an outrageous amount to own me until dawn. I’m sent to his room, quaking with nerves. But I refuse to make it easy for him. “Do not fight me, Taylor,” he growls, ice-blue eyes flashing. “I will win.” I run. He catches me, pinning me, his naked body hard against mine. I’m sobbing. Helpless. Then he whispers into my ear, low and harsh. “There’s something you need to know…

Long before humans, Fairies and Fae existed, like Adam and Eve. They ruled peacefully together, equal and united. But in darkness, a serpent slithered, taking what they cherished most, tearing Adam and Eve apart. The land and its people fell into chaos, each accusing the other. They remained divided, trapped in a cycle that no one knew was plotted until one fateful day. Born of a curse long before her time, she was auctioned to the highest bidder. What she didn’t realize, even though she heard the calling of their hearts, was the future she would have once she was sold.

Come on, admit it, we all love a gripping tale of our fellow creatures gone bad. Think Jaws, The Rats, The Crabs, Pede, Them! – the list is practically endless (hell, they even made a movie about killer bunny rabbits! Night of the Lepus, 1972, anyone?). There’s just something so inherently terrifying about the animals we see every day and take for granted are going to stay in their dens, burrows, nests, swamps, and crevices going on a murderous rampage of mayhem and outright slaughter against us poor human beings.

Humans lie. I learned that lesson once before. I thought I found a mate, but she betrayed us all. I won't let that happen again. Not even when I find Sia and four other females nearly dead on a defunct planet. Not when the lovely female is remanded to my custody. She's not being honest about what she knows. But with a little pressure, a little punishment, I might get her to talk. Teach her to obey. Find out all her secrets. Because every human needs a master. And I won't allow any other being to be hers. Sia belongs to me now.

The Lunacy of Job Hunting in America is a sharp, honest, and darkly humorous deep dive into the modern job-search nightmare.
