I'm not sure if it's my dyslexia kicking in or if people are switching back and forth on pronunciation but I can never remember the right way to pronounce the end of words like "bona" vs "bone" or "kia" vs "kie".

When I try to look up the way people pronounce one of them I swear I think they're doing the exact opposite than the way I remember with the other word. Can someone settle this please and thank you.

Take for instance "guacamole". There you have an Esperanto a in the middle and an Esperanto e at the end.
Any Spanish or Italian word you know can be a guideline.
Eg. Guatemala, Cancún, Roma, spaghetti, penne, etc

Ah the Spanish and Italian as guidelines helps. So like Spanish abla is the correct way to say the Esperanto "a" bona? And the last "e" in the Italian penne is the correct way to say "bone"?

Yes, Spanish "habla" contains two Esperanto As; Italian "penne" contains two Esperanto Es, not only the last one.
For "bona" and "bone" just go with Italian "buona" and "buone", but ignore the "uo" diphthong.

Mi casa es su casa.

If you pronounce Texas in Spanish, you also get both vowels right: Teĥas.
