For her part, Lucía delivered two signed copies of her book to make them available to the residents of the municipality at the Municipal Public Library."The Lucia that everyone knows is quiet, submissive and calm.
In" Here It Always Rains ", there is the Lucia that nobody knows, the one who does not shut up, screams.
The one who does not give in, fights.
The revolutionary, the one who wants to change the world "This is how the young writer defines herself."Here It Always Rains", according to its author, "was born due to that need to express everything that has been silent for many years.

" "Here it always rains, it has been written since the first time I fell while riding my bike, from the first suspense exam, from each and every one of the decisions that I have been making today", Lucia tells us. In these moments that we are living, Lucía Mercader, wanted to encourage all people, regardless of their age, to try this wonderful literary genre, both reading and writing.
