{ BOOK REVIEW + TOUR } Songs To Get Over You | Jay E. Tria

Reading Review February 29, 2016October 25, 2016 by tarafrejas

A heart that loves in a silent and steadfast way doesn’t usually get center stage in Filipino romance, but Tria focuses the spotlight on it with Songs To Get Over You. The novel shines with an entirely new repertoire of feels, mashed-up with a few pop culture nods (one of which only I apparently got, so far).

{ Book Review } Loveless. Childless. Clueless. | Miren B. Flores

Reading Review February 1, 2016October 28, 2016 by tarafrejas

The honesty that Loveless. Childless. Clueless. offers about long-term relationships, breakups, and the things that follow afterward is what makes this book a gem of a read. If this is a preview of what Flores’s fictional arsenal reads like, I’m here for more.

{ Book Review } Once Upon A Player | Agay Llanera

Reading Review January 24, 2016October 25, 2016 by tarafrejas

Once again, Llanera brought me into her well-crafted and relatable contemporary universe where athletes are celebrities and humans at the same time. Once Upon A Player is honest, raw, and real, delivering a mean spike to the heart at the right moments. Fudge it.

{ Book Review } Majesty | Jay E. Tria

Reading Review January 8, 2016October 25, 2016 by tarafrejas

With a narrative that holds you (and never lets go), and the voice of a pure heart that truly loved spilling beautifully throughout its pages, Majesty is a book I will definitely be picking up again, heartache be damned. Get your tissues ready, this one’s offering a storm of feels.

{ Book Review } The Boyfriend Backtrack | Dawn Lanuza

Reading Review January 5, 2016October 25, 2016 by tarafrejas

The Boyfriend Backtrack is the kind of fun read you would want to recommend to girlfriends who may (or may not) have a string of interesting exes to look back at over an afternoon cup of coffee. It reads like a lighthearted movie that has humor, a pretty soundtrack, and moments that’ll make you go “Oof, that kinda stings.”

{ Book Review } All’s Fair in Blog & War | Chrissie Peria

Reading Review January 2, 2016October 28, 2016 by tarafrejas

All’s Fair in Blog & War is a quick and light read for those who are looking for kilig in bite-sized (egg tart!) doses. Its easy-flowing narrative and cute character interactions make for an enjoyable read that makes you want to experience Macau just as Five and Jesse did.

Reading Review October 17, 2015October 25, 2016 by tarafrejas

Yes, I can feel you shaking your head sadly at me, universe. I know your feel. I can be brave over something …

{ Book Review } The Year We Became Invincible | Mae Coyiuto

Reading Review September 27, 2015October 25, 2016 by tarafrejas

Dear Future Partner, Where in the hell are you? That up there is probably how I’d write the first few lines of this book, had this been my story to tell. Of course it will not be YA, and perhaps not as hopeful as Mae Coyiuto’s The Year We Became Invincible, but it’s a start. But …
