Events: I'm in a panel! (Again!)

How are you all? Real life has been snatching more of my reading time these days but fear not, because I have bookish news to share with you all despite my busy schedule!

This year's installment of the Philippine Readers and Writers Festival brings a slew of amazing talks, authors and book signings and I am lucky enough to be able to participate again in a panel with these book bloggers: Kate of The Bookaholic Blurbs, Hazel of Stay Bookish, Lyra of Defiantly Deviant, JM of The Bookfreak Revelations and Eunice of Nerdy Talks Book Blog.

Last year we had a panel to discuss the basics of book blogging, but this time around we are going to be discussing something very timely and extremely relevant (and quite a bit scary, if you ask me). This year we will be talking about sensitive topics involving diversity, book shaming, cultural representation and other controversial book disputes not only in the YA community, but to the reading community as a whole.


I am thrilled and nervous at the same time. There's just so much going on in the community right now. It is changing, and we want to discuss as well as share our thoughts on these topics in a proper venue and hopefully engage in a meaningful discussion with a lot of readers and attendees of the festival! If you have time, drop by on August 27th at Namayan Room in Raffles Makati! Our panel starts at 5:00 pm and we have an hour and a half, we promise it's going to be worth your time.

If you want to know what else is in store for you in PRWF 2017, check the full schedule below.





I hope to see you there! We will be bringing a few treats (and by that I mean books/ARCs) to give away to a few lucky attendees of our panel!

Review: Gilded Ashes by Rosamund Hodge

I've grown up reading fairy tales with princes sweeping princesses off their feet, and that's how it's always been. Who would have thought that these tales can be re-imagined into something new that can pique a reader's interest? Title: Gilded Ashes (Cruel Beauty Universe) by Rosamund Hodge Release Date: April 1st 2014 Published by: Balzer + Bray Source: Bought Buy: Amazon Summary: Orphan Maia doesn't see the point of love when it only brings pain: Her dying mother made a bargain with the evil, all-powerful ruler of their world that anyone who hurt her beloved daughter would be punished; her new stepmother went mad with grief when Maia's father died; and her stepsisters are desperate for their mother's approval, yet she always spurns them. And though her family has turned her into a despised servant, Maia must always pretend to be happy, or else they'll all be struck dead by the curse. Anax, heir to the Duke of Sardis, doesn't believe in love ei...

ARC Review: Ask Me by Kimberly Pauley

She speaks the truth, and nothing but the truth. And where Aria Morse lives, that can get her into all sorts of trouble. Title: Ask Me by Kimberly Pauley Release Date: April 8th 2014 Published by: Soho Teen Source: Publisher (Thanks Ms. Jenny!) Buy: Amazon | Book Dpository Summary: Ask Aria Morse anything, and she must answer with the truth. Yet she rarely understands the cryptic words she‘s compelled to utter. Blessed—or cursed—with the power of an Oracle who cannot decipher her own predictions, she does her best to avoid anyone and everyone. But Aria can no longer hide when Jade, one of the few girls at school who ever showed her any kindness, disappears. Any time Aria overhears a question about Jade, she inadvertently reveals something new, a clue or hint as to why Jade vanished. But like stray pieces from different puzzles, her words never present a clear picture. Then there’s Alex, damaged and dangerous, but the first person other than Jade to stand up for her. And Will, who off...

ARC Review: Sea of Shadows (Age of Legends #1) by Kelley Armstrong

My first Kelley Armstrong book and it's definitely not going to be the last. Title: Sea of Shadows (Age of Legends #1) by Kelley Armstrong Release Date: April 8th 2014 Published by: HarperTeen Source: Publisher (Thanks Megan) Buy: Amazon | Book Depository Summary: Twin sisters Moria and Ashyn were marked at birth to become the Keeper and the Seeker of Edgewood, beginning with their sixteenth birthday. Trained in fighting and in the secret rites of the spirits, they lead an annual trip into the Forest of the Dead. There, the veil between the living world and the beyond is thinnest, and the girls pay respect to the spirits who have passed. But this year, their trip goes dreadfully wrong. They were twins, born to calm the angry, vengeful spirits in Edgewood. Ashyn is the Seeker, while Moria is the Keeper. Together with their hounds Tova and Daigo, it's the first time they will perform the rituals to calm the spirits of the dead on their own. But suddenly everything goes wrong, ...
