    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

    I saw that you've just added To Kill a Mockingbird and Time Traveler's Wife, ive read both books, and they are very good read. Mockingbird is timeless in its message. TTW is unique where time is defied by a quirk of nature. Enjoy the books!
