I got another haul from Amazon! I just love buying books there.
I recently finished I Hunt Killers by Barry Lyga and if you are a fan of stories revolving around serial killers, then by golly, grab a copy of this awesome book! YA + Serial Killers + Dark Humor = I. Am. In. Love. Woot!
Front and Center is the final book from the Dairy Queen series. It was hard to find this edition that will match my DQ collection. Imagine my delight when i saw a HB bargain copy in Amazon! I just started The Off Season (book 2), so i am hoping to wrap up this cute contemporary series real soon. Happiness!
There’s a lot of raves for Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo. Is it right of me to jump with the bandwagon? I’ll be reading this next week.
Last Friday, I passed by the local bookstore on my way home. There’s a little crowd already forming in front of the store. What could it be? Lo, and Behold. The bookstore’s having a bargain sale! My eyes went wide as I saw one YA title after another worth P70 Philippine Pesos (around US$1.99 each). Without a moment’s hesitation, I grab anything I could get my hands to. They are all hardbound copies, so picture me hauling these books from the metro to my house. Did I mention that it was raining that day, and I live 2 hours away from the metro? Oh, the sacrifice!
…
I also got the KikoMachine Komix #1-8, a Filipino published comic strips collection. Hey, Manix Abrera! You make me wanna reminisce the good ol’ days of my college years. =) Thank you for signing all my copies. Rakenrol (rock ‘n roll)!
…

Which books have you read? Can you recommend them?
So, as usual, i’m broke. But i don’t think i’m alone… have you bought some books lately?
Haha!
Cheers!

*squeal* those are fabulous books! I really have no luck with sales. Bummer!
Anyway, I hope you get to read Shadow and Bone soon. I loved it! I’m looking forward to your thoughts on that one.
XOXO
Janus ^_^
will do
thanks, Janus!
I just got Shadow and Bone as well! Looking forward to reading that one soon. Looks like an awesome book haul
Thanks, Brittany! Let’s see if we both like Shadow & Bone after reading.
Sounds great
It’ll be coming up after I get back from vacation
Dang it! OMG i love this haul. NBS in Tarlac doesn’t have any good selection of books whenever they have a sale – makes me cry.
Enjoy your books.
Hi, Mary Grace! How about you drop by here in Manila next September for the Manila International Book Fair (MIBF)? Lots of bargain books there, as well.
Keep reading!
I am deliberately avoiding NBS. Haha but those books! Eep.
Resistance may be futile.

Tina, resistance can be done for a day or two. but that’s it. Haha! Now, i need a new shelf. Jeez.
Thanks!
Oh so awesome! I know exactly what you mean by sacrifice. And they say reading doesn’t build muscles.
*high five* for the love of books, i’m building some muscles. LOL. Thank you, Nafiza!
I want those signed Kiko Machine comics! Haha.
Oh, and NBS’ up-to-70%-off this month will definitely ruin your budget.
Manix is so nice to sign all of them
including Kwentillion! Thank you
WTF! The Wannabe Koreanas and I went to NBS and bought total of three books and we did not encounter those cheap YA books. Shame! Anyway, I’m avoiding bookstores since last month. So okay lang.
LOL! i went the second time in the same NBS branch… and bought 3 more YA books. wahaha! ako na ang swerte! pero poorita na.
Nay, wala na tayong food dahil sa baha bili ka pa rin ng bili ng libro. Haha. Pahingi naman.
Anak, ganyan tlg. libro kasi ipapakain ko sayo. LOL. Alin gusto mo jan? basahin ko agad tapos bigay ko sayo.
Lahat ‘yan, isama mo na rin yung haul mo sa Amazon. Mabubusog ako niyan ng isang taon, di na kailangan ng… nakilumutan ko tuloy ang pangalan. Haha.
Ay. Gahaman mashado? LOL Mas mayaman ka kaya sa akin.
“The Korean Wanna be’s” pala ha. Ow your so dead Kwesi.
