That smile. “Just... for a minute?” “A short minute.” “Promise you’ll bring me right back?” “Word of honor.” Strange boy. Alien disk. Portal in the air. What could go wrong? I grinned, and took his warm hand. “El primer mazal, no se fuya,” I said. “What?” He gave me a strange look. “Oh, you know. Go with your first instinct.” “I know what it means,” he said, and winked. I blushed, because I knew, too. It also means, “Don’t turn down the first boy who asks you out.” Because you never know. He pulled my hand, and I followed him through.

Argentina, Brazil, and Mexico-home to the largest Jewish communities in Latin America-are the countries with the greatest representation, but there are essays on writers from Venezuela, Chile, Uruguay, Peru, Colombia, Costa Rica, and Cuba.
