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: The Trap (The Hunt #3) by Andrew Fukuda

If there's such a thing as  emotional carnage, where every single strand of my emotions were ripped apart and stomped on, then that's what I have just experienced while reading this book. I feel so tired, it's like my emotions were a tangible thing that was tossed around and just disintegrated after I flipped to the last page. Title: The Trap (The Hunt #3) by Andrew Fukuda Release Date: November 5th 2013 Published by: St. Martin's Griffin Source: Publisher Buy: Amazon | Book Depository Summary: After barely escaping the Mission alive, Gene and Sissy face an impossible task: staying alive long enough to stop an entire world bent on their destruction.

Now that they know how to reverse the vi...

Recap: Becca Fitzpatrick Manila Book Signing!

Summer started in a really good way with the arrival of NYT best selling author Becca Fitzpatrick in Manila for a signing last March 29th. Photo from Algel @ Tea-rrific Reads I've mentioned it before, and I will say it again! The reason why book signings are so fun for me is not just because I get to meet YA authors of the fabulous books I read, but it's also the time where I get to meet my lovely book blogger friends and fangirl over anything and everything book related (and sometimes other things too!). I had the privilege to attend the bloggers forum and ask Becca Fitzpatrick, author of the popular Hush, Hush series, a question. My question was this: Patch is a "bad boy" and Hush, Hush is a story about Patch falling from grace. How did you get the idea? Did Patch just appear in your head? Her answer was: Patch was inspired by a guy she knows way back when she was in high school. When she wrote the first draft of Hush, Hush, Patch then was not a fallen angel at all,...
