A graphic with text on the top reading "COVER REVEAL" and on the bottom reading "Coming September 22, 2026" with an illustrated book cover with text at the top that reads: award-winning and bestselling author Sonido Reyes. The title at the bottom reads: To Our Untamed Core. A Brown boy stands in front of the title font with his back to the "camera" looking off to the side. There is a hole through his back that has a beam of light shining through it. In the distance is a pyramid with the sun behind its peak, the sunlight shining straight through the hole in the boy's back.

Centuries after the conquistadors claimed the Afueras for their own, Temo spends his life obeying the Holy Order’s decree, undergoing their sacraments to tame his supposedly violent nature. The only rule he breaks: hiding that he’s trans. If that fact is discovered, Temo will face El Torneo, a brutal, fight-to-the-death game pitting the untamed against one another. No Afuereño who enters El Torneo ever escapes with their life. But when Temo’s boyfriend is unexpectedly arrested and thrown into the deadly tournament, he’ll do anything to rescue Ollin from his gruesome fate, even if it means entering El Torneo himself. Only there's far more to this tournament than meets the eye—survival is just the beginning. When the cost of saving the one he loves is higher than he ever imagined, is Temo willing to pay it?

A graphic that reads " Yesterday, we were each a single drop of blood... Tomorrow, it will rain."

The rumors are true! (and I may or may not have started them 🤭)

To Our Untamed Core is coming September 22 to a bookstore near you. I’m so freaking proud of this book and I hope you all love it as much as I do 💛

Thank you! I’m so glad you enjoyed it 💜

I feel this! My old name is absolutely still mine. I still love it even! It’s just not what I’m called anymore

I guess we’ll find out tomorrow! 🤭

thank you I appreciate you! 💜

Pssst! Lesbiana's Guide is a banned book. Please don't boycott the book for having Sonido's old name! Support Sonido monetarily and work to end book bans!

hello detectives of the internet! Sorry it took me a while to say something, but yes, I have seen the posts about me. I really appreciate all the love and I love you all back but legally (not really but I did promise) I can’t confirm or deny anything until tomorrow 🙊

thank you so much!!! I'm so glad you enjoyed it 💜

thank you!!

I think that's all for now. I'll share more in depth thoughts about this on my newsletter, including the significance of the name Sonido and why I decided to do this now.

Love you, and thank you in advance for being cool about this 😘
(8/8)

but if you happen to come across something of mine in the wild* that I still haven't updated, please let me know!

*this doesn't apply to retail sites or anything connected to my books, since the name on the books will take longer to change (7/8)

Please, please, be nice to me about it, or at least keep your judgment somewhere I can't see

4. I'm in the process of changing my name on all socials, my website, and all the places I could think of that link to my socials or website, (6/8)

Maybe putting more attention on myself while there's already a target on my back is naive. I have amazing friends and followers, and while I'm sure there will be a lot of people who support me, I'm still anxious about how this will be received. (5/8)

I WANT those books to sell! In fact, if they sell enough copies to justify another printing, then I'll get to see my new name on them even sooner!

3. Changing my name is something I needed to do, but it is frankly terrifying, especially right now. (4/8)

If you want to read more about my thoughts on this, I'll have a newsletter coming tomorrow that goes more in depth

2. Please do not boycott my old books for having my old name on them! Think of them as limited-edition, pre-pokemon evolution copies of Sonido Reyes books lol (3/8)

1. Sonora is not a dead name FOR ME SPECIFICALLY. Not every trans person is the same, but I have a fond relationship with my old name. It just doesn't suit me anymore, and that's okay. Call me Sonido going forward, but there's no need to avoid mentioning my old name when it's relevant. (2/8)

I have something really wonderful to tell all of you. Allow me to reintroduce myself:

My name is Sonido Reyes (please clap)

A few things to note:
(1/8)

This is the best podcast title I've seen in a while. Insta-subscribe.

thank you!!!
