La Pollera Ediciones acquires Spanish language rights to Catherine Dellosa’s RomanceClass YA novella

January 23, 2026 by Mina

Chile publisher La Pollera Ediciones has acquired Spanish language rights to Catherine Dellosa’s young adult romance Raya and Grayson’s Guide to Saving the World.

In the novella, Filipino teenagers Raya and Grayson are individually dealing with heartbreak and grief but find new friendship—and romance—as they bond over comic books, online games, web forums, and the most anticipated Philippine comics convention of the year.

This YA novella was developed through a RomanceClass Books community project called Flicker. RomanceClass Books is a worldwide community of Filipino authors (and editors, artists, readers) of romance in English.

Other language rights for this title are available. Contact mina@romanceclassbooks.com for inquiries.
