I'm a Filipino who loves to read books of different genre. Too bad I started reading late in
my life compared to most of my friends. I love courtroom drama like Grishams and the likes.
Finance books would be my 2nd favorite. Happy reading to all!

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

    Finoy Foodies - June Book Discussion

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

    really? your mom's from sorsogon? glad to know that! =) what's her maiden surname? i might know her, you know. ;D

    time flies so fast without one realizing it when one's engrossed reading a great book. it's really "addicting" to read. :D

    don't worry, you'll have plenty of time to read after your board exam. good luck!

    i'll pray for you, that you'll pass it with flying colors so that you'll find a good job with a good pay..to be able to buy good books. ;D

    ingats..GOD bless!

    Hi :) I just read "Daluyong" for my Filipino class back in college and I liked it. Our teacher actually assigned two books by Francisco to our class. She divided the class into two to do reviews on the books. The other was "Maganda Pa Ang Daigdig." My friend didn't like it that much though. She said it was dragging. :| I haven't heard of "Sulat ng Alaala" yet. :)
