Sonora Reyes’s standalone novels center queer Latinx teenagers. The Lesbiana’s Guide to Catholic School (2022) follows a bisexual Mexican American girl at a new school. The Luis Ortega Survival Club (2023) is about an undocumented teen navigating high school. The Broposal (2025) is a YA rom-com.
The Lesbiana’s Guide to Catholic School was Reyes’s debut and received strong reviews for its honest portrayal of identity and belonging. The Luis Ortega Survival Club tackled immigration and family separation a year later, moving into heavier subject matter while keeping the voice grounded in teenage experience. The Broposal (2025) shifts to a lighter tone with its romantic comedy premise.
Each book stands alone with its own characters and setting. Reyes writes with specificity about the Mexican American experience, and her books are frequently recommended for readers looking for YA fiction with genuine Latinx representation.
