      <image:caption>Dr. Manuel Flores — Texana Reads in Corpus Christi Caller Times Lupita Almaraz Aguilar always liked words, and fashion. Lupita Almaraz Aguilar always liked words, and fashion. She also likes relationships, romance and life in general. She is upbeat, serious, funny, sad and a self-described go-getter. What could she be? Well, the title in her book says it all. “If The Hat Fits” than you must be that and more. Almaraz Aguilar, you see, is a poet and much more. Her book is a collection of sentimental and eclectic poems that date back to her childhood. Her poems cover all aspects of life from everyday occurrences to marriage, dealing with Mexican moms and death. Losing her daughter at a young age helped shape her adult life. She writes about pain she cannot share and tears no one will see. Growing up in a small South Texas town defines her down-to-earth and never-surrender attitude. READ MORE ….</image:caption>

      <image:title>Books - Someone is You</image:title>
      <image:caption>Someone is You Someone is You, A Poetry Collection by Lupita Almaraz. "Lupita Almaraz is a poet whose words are forged in the fires of adversity and resilience. Born, Guadalupe Almaraz, above a Piggly Wiggly store in the small town of Hebbronville, Texas, she defied the odds to become the first in her family to earn a Doctor of Jurisprudence and to practice law. A woman of fierce independence and formidable intellect, she has worn many titles: mother, attorney, survivor, writer, but none more defining than a woman who rises. She has been writing since she was a young girl; her words have long been her refuge, her resistance, and her way of making meaning out of life's harshest blows. Her life has been marked by both triumph and unimaginable grief. She has survived the pain of profound loss, including the death of her beloved daughter, Nikki Claudette, and the heartbreak of betrayal after decades of marriage. And yet, she persevered, with grit shaped by hardship, and a heart softened by reflection. Now returned to her roots in Hebbronville, Lupita serves as an Assistant County Attorney and has lovingly restored her casita into a haven of peace. It is from this place of solitude and renewal that her poetry emerges. Someone is You is her second collection of poems, a tribute to the layered truth of womanhood, heartbreak, survival, and the sacred act of writing oneself whole. She pens poetry not just to remember, but to reclaim. She writes because someone is you. As her daughter, I struggled to write this because how do you sum up someone who contains multitudes? But what I know is this: my mother writes the truth, even when it hurts, and in doing so, she gives the rest of us permission to heal." Jinnelle V. Powell, PhD</image:caption>

      <image:caption>If The Hat Fits is a book of poems composed to take you on a journey. The Author strategically created the book such that if you read it -cover to cover- it will take you on an emotional roller coaster. The author is as hilarious as she is serious and as quirky as she is brilliant. Some of the author’s poetry in this compilation was written at age twelve, through her teens, and into the present -- many of which she is sharing for the first time. Her poetry will raise an eyebrow, make you laugh, reminisce, or cry - as something in her book will resonate with you or someone you know. One may just be about you! This is really a must-read!
