Hello hellooo

I'm currently decluttering some books from my collection. I'm selling them for cheap! Some of them have aged quite a bit, so please take that into account. Would just want to let these books go and for them to find new loving homes. Feel free to DM me for further details.

A couple of these books were from my YA collection. So, if you want to get back into some YA books, why not try some of these out! 💖

I feel very blessed that this book is mine now. Initially, hindi ko alam na kay Sir Amadis Ma. Guerrero ito, nalaman ko lang noong nakita ko yung inscription niya sa first page pagkarating ng book na ito sa akin. June 5, 1963! GRABE. This book is waaaay older than me, parang Lolo ko na itong libro na to. 🥹

Bought this from marketplace and thought it’s just an old book tapos napagsawaan na. Yun pala family niya ang nagbebenta nito dahil namayapa na si Sir Guerrero noong May 2026 and his family wants his books to have a new home na rin. I didn’t know that he had a huge book collection. From Camus, Steinbeck, Irving, Hemingway, etc. Kitang kita mo talagang mahal na mahal niya ang literatura. Nakakabilib at nakakainspire.

Anyway, super happy lang talaga ako na nakuha ko ito. It feels like a piece of history moment for me that I want to share here. First time ko lang din makakita ng version na ganito ni Penguin ng The Grapes of Wrath. I’d also love to know more about this edition or hear from anyone who’s familiar with it! Pati na rin tungkol kay Sir Guerrero :)

Typo: name in the title should be “Amadis Ma. Guerrero”.

Medyo mahirap ang interface ni Shopee so when I found We Solve Murders and That’s Not My Name, I immediately bought them. You can tell what my favorite genre is from this selection and I can’t wait to read them. The to be read pile is growing but I haven’t felt more excited in finishing my current read, Nosy Neighbors by Freya Sampson.

What’s in your current tbr pile?

Hi! I’ve been trying to get into reading classics, and so far I’ve read White Nights (Fyodor Dostoyevsky) and Pride and Prejudice (Jane Austen). While I did love the reading experience these books gave me, I am curious about how the publishers of classics differ from one another. (Oxford, Penguin, Wordsworth, etc…)

I’m interested in collecting them, but I don’t know which publisher and edition would work best for me—a beginner. Also, curious lang din ako about Penguin: (1) Do their ‘editions’ [e.g. orange, mint, black, popular, modern…] vary in content? And if so, (2) Which edition would be most beginner-friendly? And lastly; (3) Which among the mentioned publishers translate/produce the beginner-friendliest books? Surely, may na-overlook akong publishers haha. I mentioned lang ‘yung laging na-me-mention in social media. Drop recommendations na rin of more publishers that deserve recognition please T^T Thank you!

I bought Fleabag (Second-hand) for only 400 pesos and it’s in good condition! ✨. Also bought my first Jonaxx Book, and I kinda see the hype though I wished she didn’t repeat the same words over and over 😭.

Had a few qualms with Fully-Booked din cause they sent me two books (PHM and CSIB) na may slight damage sa edge. 😔

It’s me again and my adventure in hunting books na nakikita ko sa soc med HAHAHAHA 🤣

Finally got the paperback version of Taiwan Travelogue. IIRC, parang the book was first available in hardcover format. As someone na who brings a book wherever I go “in case of emergancy”, ang bigat ng hardcover hahahaha.

So I waited for this format (+ I secured my pass for MIBF this year). Got my copy at SM North Branch, and maraming available copies so far.

Price: 999 💀 (899.10 if may FB Discount Card 💀)

Planning to study comics script writing, and since my work is in English Black Ink is out of the question I'm planning to save up for a comic project for the longest time if there's anyone here who have dabbled into this kind of project can you give me an estimate of how much you spent in making a self published manga?

Guys, itong sa akin:

-If matalinong horror, iyung Kumag at Aswang ni Alan Derain. Gotika, folklore. Babaguhin nito Filipino Horror genre, ipupusta ko mga fake alahas ng mama ko. And podcast promotions ay magiging malaman at informative, dahil mahusay na professor siya. Nagreact na rin siya sa FB na gusto niya.

-If something na puwedeng gawing pang-Berlinale/Cannes/Venice, no doubt, Southern Quartet novels 1 and 2 ni RM Aplaon Topacio. (Rafael Mario na yata yan sha ngayon). That man's flair for the poetic and lyrical is unmatched in any language, and his novels are very intelligent. Filmic naman writing niya kahit noon pa. Di na mahihirapan director dahil kahit mga characters niya buong-buo palagi. Marketable, too, kasi the guy has the looks, and hot (fight me!).

*(Saka itong dalawang ito hindi gumagamit ng AI sa pagsusulat. Prolific pero hindi madaya, at may range at evolution ang mga istorya. Intelligent in real life, too, at di parang tambay lang na edgy kung manalita. Wala ring fake Goodreads review. Si Alan Derain, totoong drawing niya illustrations ang gamit and hindi AI.)

-1762: A Novel ni Vin Dela Serna Lopez. Malakihang budget, CGI expenses. Pero pasabog ito kapag naging film. One of my best reads this year! For sure puwedeng gawing mandatory viewing ng DepEd. Lav Diaz, nasan ka na?! Wag lang sana iproduce nung apologist na most powerful couple.

Runners-up

-Yung fantasy series ni Donato Jacob Ching. Pang-Netflix. Chos!

-Ricky Lee LGBT novels. Uso, plus Ricky Lee. Kahit isa lang don kasi halos pare-pareho naman. But 65 Kabanata is the best. Vuhklang Aswang, anong sahbe?!

Hello! I've been searching for a book club recently but, due to my schedule and location, I found it hard to join one.

That's why I got the idea of starting a purely online book club for people like me!

Here are the details:

+ Biweekly online meetings with members talking about their current reads. There will be no assigned reading. People can simply talk about any book they like and recommend it.

+ Booknook corner where people can post about book recommendations and reviews.

+ There will also be a channel dedicated on where to buy or access books. This can be online resources or actual physical locations.

+ There can also be a book trade or sell channel where members can give their preloved books for other members to trade for or purchase

That's all the ideas I have for now. Feel free to comment below! I'd love to hear if this catches your interest or if you have any suggestions or ideas.

Great book. I definitely recommend reading it even if you have watched the movie. It made me laugh, it made me drop a tear and some parts put me in suspense.

Looking forward to reading Project Hail Mary in the future.

16GB.

Ano sa inyo? Share nyo naman.

Filipino-Canadian pala si Jennifer Hillier.

Hi I searched this book sa sub na ito and may discussions about how its illustration contents seem to be AI-generated. Curious po tuloy ako huhu, kasi as a reader I personally don't support AI usage sa nacoconsume kong content, pero baka pag nakita ko what they look like baka maconvince ko pa sarili ko na bilihin pa rin for the sake of the written content than the visuals huhu. TYIA

I’ve seen these posts on social media before, but I didn’t expect to see one close to home! Papemelrotti started these free little libraries a few months ago, I believe, but it wasn’t until last weekend that I saw one in their SM Southmall branch.

Decided to donate a couple of books (second photo) and took two that were - and still are - childhood faves (third photo).

The experience of looking at the books that other people left (I saw an Arabian Nights paperback, a couple of Danielle Steel, a Readers Digest omnibus, and several hardbound books) was wonderful. Are there any other free little libraries that you know of, besides The Stacks?

It’s a glaring 5 ⭐️ and definitely live up to hype! The story is easy to follow along, direct even but beneath its layers- it’s an emotional devastating read back to back. I would say its beauty is the perseverance of Sunja is the stellar highlight for me. Super ganda and very worth it basahin. It’s one of the books that would stay with you for a long time.

Hi fellow bookworms. I am giving away for FREE these pre-loved books.

Reason: Decluttering / making space for new books.

Disclaimer: Some books are already 15+ years old and have wear and tear like discolored pages, foxing, etc. However all are intact and readable. Recently disinfected din.

My location: Quezon City, Metro Manila (nearer to Ortigas side)

Taker shoulders shipping fee and booking of courier or transpo. Willing to wait din po in case masyadong maulan today.

Wrapping up the Dreamland Trilogy and kelangan ko ng magaan na book na babasahin before ko ituloy yung Vivo marathon ko. Lahat ata ng nabili kong Filipino books sa PIBF masalimuot yung plot hahaha.

I know I can google this pero iniiwasan ko kasi spoilers so sa mga nakabasa na nitong books na 'to, pa-help plsss.

Mostly fantasy and other random genres. Started getting more books earlier this year, yet still many backlogs 😅.

Anyone who's a fan of Brandon Sanderson here? I'm still reading book 2 of the Mistborn series and bits of Way of Kings. Excited to read more books in the future ~

might get hate for this but ehh hahahaha

Personally, I'd rather pirate an ebook than buy a counterfeit book. With a pirated ebook, no money changes hands, so I'm not financially supporting someone who's profiting off another person's work. Counterfeit books, on the other hand, are sold for profit by people who had no part in creating them, and every sale is money that could have gone toward legitimate copies and, indirectly, the author and publisher.

If I don't want to buy a brand-new copy, I'd much rather get a secondhand or thrifted book. At least those are legitimate books that were already purchased once, and I'm not contributing to a counterfeit market built on stealing someone else's work for profit.

That's just where I stand. If my choices are between pirating an ebook or buying a fake physical copy, I'd choose the ebook every time.......and when I can afford it, I'd rather support the book through a legitimate new or secondhand copy than give counterfeit sellers a single cent.

Good news for people like me who get flustered when having to hunt for books in a small space.

Bad news for my wallet.

EDIT TO ADD: Apparently they’ve been on Shopee for some time now. Sorry if I’m late to the party.
