It could have been a good story, but it went too far with the range of controversial issues. Spoiler alert... I'll try not to give away too much, but the basic story line is an asexual black boy with body issues, who befriends an old Jewish woman who struggles with survivor's guilt, who together are dealing with issues surrounding an ignorant gun toting white lady's prejudicial fear of the scary Hispanic man who happens to be walking behind her. The crazy white lady is allowed to continue carrying her gun around...because I guess those nutty pro gun people are allowed to do that, even when on trial for murder. Apparenently we should also believe guns are not held for evidence. The all white jury ignores all the evidence and witness testimony because, you know...tribalism. The lady was clearly an idiot. The victim was well on his way to sainthood. But she was white and he was brown so the jury didn't even need time to deliberate. The only hot topic she forgot to include is late term abortion . ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Kindness and Friendship *by T***Z on Reviewed in the United States on May 21, 2019* Catherine Ryan Hyde, Author of “Have You Seen Luis Velez” has written a unique, enthralling, emotional, intriguing, captivating and heartwarming novel. The Genre for this story is Fiction. This is also a Beautiful Coming of Age Story. I love everything about this wonderful book. Catherine Ryan Hyde is an amazing storyteller, and her vivid and colorful descriptions of her characters and the landscape are so realistic. The story takes place in and around New York City. The author describes her dramatic characters as complex and complicated.Raymond Jaffe, 17 years old feels like an outcast in his family. His best friend is moving away, and his other friend is a kitten that he rescues. He is in his building when an older woman asks him if he or anyone has seen Luis Velez? As Raymond is speaking to Mildred Gutermann, who is 92 years old and blind, he realizes she has no caretaker. Raymond starts helping Mildred and is looking for Luis Velez, who had been helping Mildred. Meanwhile, Raymond and Mildred are becoming good friends.It seems there are a number of Luis Velez’s’ in the phone book. Raymond goes and visits some of them. There are some interesting encounters, but Raymond has yet to find the correct Luis Velez.I appreciate that Catherine Ryan Hyde discusses the importance of kindness and friendship. Also discussed are the different prejudices and biases that are based on wealth and poverty, and religion and race. The author writes about love, acceptance, friendship, family, kindness, love, and hope. I highly recommend this amazing book. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ are you seeing the people around you? *by L***S on Reviewed in the United States on May 30, 2019* This book was one that really made me stop and think about how I develop impressions of people I see as I go about my normal day. Do I make racial judgments based on the color of someone's skin? Do I feel that other people make judgments about me...based on my physical characteristics, my religious beliefs, etc.?Raymond Jaffe is an amazing young man. His maturity is impressive; his willingness to tackle a project on behalf of one of his neighbor's is admirable. If there were more people like Raymond in the world today, we would be in a much better place.I fell in love with Mildred Guterman. She had a wonderful way of looking at life and the things that go on around her. She is one tough cookie and is a good influence on Raymond.The author does a wonderful job of bringing you into the story and making you care about so many of the characters as you turn the pages and get sucked into the search for Luis Velez. What a wonderful story!Thank you to NetGalley and Lake Union Publishing for an ARC in exchange for my honest review. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.it/products/120112891-have-you-seen-luis-velez-kindle-edition](https://www.desertcart.it/products/120112891-have-you-seen-luis-velez-kindle-edition) --- *Product available on Desertcart Italy* *Store origin: IT* *Last updated: 2026-05-13*
