    Hi. The Flips Flipping Pages has another book discussion coming up. Hope you can attend. thanks!

    Finoy Foodies - June Book Discussion

    Because we love food second to books (order of importance may change depending on time of day), the Flippers will tackle a culinary theme this June. To narrow down the countless choices of books, we zoom in on Filipino food.

    See you all
    on June 20, 2009. Saturday. 2PM
    at Katre Mediterranean Restaurant, 103 Dr. Lascano St. Brgy. Laging Handa, Quezon City

    Wouldn't it be fun meeting Filipino shelfarians online? Talking about favorite books, Filipino or otherwise. Sharing great places to find bargain books. Talking about local events that get book geeks like us excited. Join the group Flips Flipping Pages to get the most out of the shelfarian experience.
