It's that time of the year again! This month is National Bookstore's Cut Price Sale, up to 70% off, and I had to ask for an older sister loan to feed my book addiction. I picked up 7 books from the sale. Help! And some review copies also arrived. *stares at the mountain called TBR*
By the way, who's excited for the Manila International Book Fair next month? :)
Every other week I will be showcasing the literary offerings I got. The list will include print copies, as well as e-books I got for review, and other books that I bought or borrowed from friends.

ReplyDeleteIt does sound very interesting, right? I'm so excited to read it! Hope you get to read it soon as well :)
DeleteI've only recently heard of Survive, it sounds good and I have Hate List at home but I think I'm going to have to return it to the library unread :(
ReplyDeleteOh, why? I heard Hate List is good though I'm not sure I'll have the time to read it soon though. But I will make time for it!
DeleteYay, I'm sooo excited for the NBS' CPS, too! I want go to the nearest HUGE NBS branch to check out for the awesome cut-priced books--but I'm afraid I might get stuck in flood in Cubao. You never know. Yikes!
