On hidden heavens
I’ve been wanting to read Andres Cristobal Cruz’s Ang Tundo Man May Langit Din (Ateneo de Manila University Press, 1958) since high school (when it was assigned as a book report for the other group hahaha my group was assigned to read another book), but only gotten around to reading it this month. And, boy, do I regret not reading it any sooner!! But, as they say, better late than...

Imagine all the people
If there’s an imaginary boy/girlfriend, there’s an imaginary ex for sure.
This is what Mina Esguerra’s My Imaginary Ex (Summit Media, 2009) is all about - of the twists and turns that imagination and reality could do when intertwined.
Favorite points to ponder:
-The “cute” usage of flashback within a flashback
-Cute, lovable and love-to-hate characters

We didn’t say much to each other. ‘Hello’ was the longest word I have ever said to him. But, somehow, I managed to fall.

I’ve had an ebook copy of that for months - or was it years - and haven’t read it yet. XD
Try reading it soon, mind-boggling and time-consuming but worth it. ;)

Beyond time
Five months.
That’s the span of time that took me to finally finish this book. A real classic, I must say. Pun intended. Haha!
Charlotte Bronte’s Jane Eyre is probably one of the best romance books ever written - no doubt why it is included in BBC’s The Big Read x 100 Books to Read Before You Die. The book isn’t the typical kissing-scene-filled, super stressed...
