February 26, 2025: Book translation publication #52 (from Spanish): "The Writer's Eyes" by Esteban Navarro Soriano is a detective novel.

Moisés Guzmán, a recently retired Spanish National Police officer, has purchased a small apartment in the town of Blanes, Catalonia, where he plans to spend his first summer as a pensioner. His neighbors - a young girl fleeing her abusive father, a retired writer obsessed with finishing his last book, and a solitary man who's always with his dog - all live in the same block. During his first week, a man dies inside a car after stopping at a traffic light in the former policeman's street. Although it appears to be an accident, it's actually the result of a crime. Everything becomes more complicated when the Blanes Autonomous Police Squad zeroes in on his three new neighbors as possible culprits.

February 25, 2025: Book translation publication #51 (from French): "Heartquake: Chantal in Nepal" by Sophie Rouzier is another travel-themed Romantic Comedy chick lit novel and the second instalment of her story about Chantal. This time she's in Nepal.

Chantal has a peaceful, seamless life and a name that's not very glamorous. To spice up her daily routine, she takes comfort in books and dreams of adventure and romance. The only original thing about her is that she was born in Nepal and was adopted by a nice Alsatian couple. She hasn't seen her twin sister since the orphanage. They were separated at age two.

One day, however, she spies her on TV helping victims of the Nepalese earthquake. What a shock! Against all expectations, Chantal decides to fly to her country of origin and look for her. She ditches Louis, her lover, and her tidy life, and escapes her comfort zone. With Chantal, forget blueberry pie and taste momos, travel to Kathmandu and Pokhara, and hike the Annapurna mountain range without suffering from altitude sickness. This trip will wake her up and she'll surprise you.

The author said: "C'est le deuxième de mes livres que traduit Angela et je suis heureuse de faire équipe avec elle. Elle arrive à retransmettre parfaitement non seulement le contenu du livre mais aussi son ton et mon style. Je le recommande vraiment.”

“This is the second of my books that Angela has translated and I am happy to have her on my team. She not only recreates perfectly the contents of my book but also its tone and my style. I recommend her highly.”
