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: Restore Me (Shatter Me #4) by Tahereh Mafi

Dear Tahereh, Are you sure this book is really entitled “Restore Me”? Because this didn’t restore me AT ALL. This DESTROYED AND SHATTERED ME. Which, now that I think about it, is the title of the whole series so I should’ve expected that. Love, Kai Title: Restore Me (Shatter Me #4) by Tahereh Mafi Release Date: March 6, 2018 Published by: HarperCollins Source: Bought (Kindle) Buy online: National Bookstore Summary: Juliette Ferrars thought she'd won. She took over Sector 45, was named the new Supreme Commander, and now has Warner by her side. But she's still the girl with the ability to kill with a single touch—and now she's got the whole world in the palm of her hand. When tragedy hits, who will she become? Will she be able to control the power she wields and use it for good? I thought I was done with this series. I will admit that I was surprised when I found out there was another book because I always thought stories that could’ve ended the way they did must be left ...

She speaks High School, College, Friends, Boyfriends, Break-ups, and even the language of Beautiful Girls. But none of these is her native tongue--the only people who speak that are her best friend Stu and her sister Kate. So when Kate gets engaged to an epically insufferable guy, how can Josie see it as anything but the mistake of a lifetime? Kate is determined to b...
