Colombian Author
Yenny Astrid Londoño.
I write about real life without dressing it up: sarcasm, sharp humor, and that inconvenient habit of saying what everyone else is thinking.
Relationships, complicated people, spectacularly bad decisions, and truths nobody asked for but probably needed to read anyway.

Gente de mierda con excelente autoestima
The problem isn't loving yourself too much. It's loving yourself so much that you never stop to question yourself.
The person who lies and then gets offended because you didn't trust them. The one who constantly lets you down and then explains that your expectations are simply too high. Some people don't need more self-esteem. They need a mirror.
Putas historias, putos escritos
Sarcastic, crazy, and fucked-up — just like life itself.
Stories that hurt, truths kept quiet for far too long, and moments so absurd that there were really only two choices left: cry about them or turn them into sarcasm.

No estoy loca, estoy rodeada de incompetentes
A survival manual for a woman who works, thinks, and somehow always ends up fixing what everyone else left half-done.
Because sometimes you're not difficult, dramatic, controlling, or crazy. Sometimes you are simply surrounded by people who apparently consider basic competence an optional feature.

No todos los hijos de puta vienen con advertencia
A sarcastic guide to recognizing the people who smile while quietly destroying everything around them.
They arrive smiling. Offering friendship, love, business opportunities, help, promises, or that miraculous solution that seems almost too good to be true. And then the invoice arrives. Not everyone comes with a warning label. Unfortunately.

The Author
My Chaos
Yenny Astrid Londoño is a Colombian author and entrepreneur and the founder of Anchetas Medellín. She writes about real life with sarcasm, irony, dark humor, and the uncomfortable honesty that comes from paying attention to what people actually do rather than what they claim to be.
I started writing in 2008 on Blogger and on Facebook pages called Sarcasmo Puro. Long before algorithms decided everything had to fit into fifteen seconds, I was already writing long-form stories, reflections, uncomfortable observations, and sarcastic pieces about everyday life.
Tarot became part of my story in 2015. Anchetas Medellín followed in 2017, growing into a business dedicated to personalized gifts and meaningful occasions.
All of those things are part of what I do.
But writing came first.
And it still does.
- We’re broken because we expect more than we deserve, give more than we have, and hold on to more than we can forget
Book Reviews
What I've Been Reading
Books I loved, books that surprised me, books that annoyed me, and books that made me question why certain characters were ever allowed to make decisions unsupervised.
No promotional worship. No five stars handed out because everybody worked very hard.
Just books, opinions, sarcasm, and the occasional literary crime scene.
Leigh Bardugo
Shadow and Bone
Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo: a soldier discovers that darkness has an owner
Alina Starkov has spent years being ordinary beside Mal, her closest friend, until a crossing through the Shadow Fold reveals that Ravka may have been wrong about her. Her new power makes her valuable to the court, but valuable and free are not the same thing. This is my review of Leigh Bardugo’s Shadow and Bone, a fantasy about power, belonging and the uncomfortable moment when everyone suddenly has a plan for your life.

Six of Crows
Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo: an impossible heist and six people who cannot work together without threats
Six thieves, one impossible job and a plan whose first rule is apparently “do not kill your teammates before we get inside.” This is my spoiler-light review of Leigh Bardugo’s Six of Crows, a fantasy about criminal skill, complicated loyalties and people who learned to survive by trusting nobody—including the people they need beside them.

Reckless
Reckless by Lauren Roberts: a romantic chase where both people know trust is a bad idea
The competition is over, but Paedyn and Kai are nowhere near safe. She is on the run, he is hunting her, and they both have reasons not to trust the person they want. This is my spoiler-light review of Lauren Roberts’s Reckless, the second book in the Powerless trilogy, where romantic tension travels through a world outside the palace and the political questions are still waiting for a fuller answer.

Rebecca Ross
Ruthless Vows
Ruthless Vows by Rebecca Ross: a war, a reporter without his memories and letters that still find their way
The war has consequences, Roman has lost the memories that explain his life, and the letters still find a way through. This is my spoiler-light review of Rebecca Ross’s Ruthless Vows, the second and final book in Letters of Enchantment. It continues Iris and Roman’s story by asking whether loving someone means recovering an older version of them or meeting the person they decide to become now.
