I’ve been noticing how iWant has been producing new and original streaming content for the past year, but it’s only this year I’ve actually tried watching them because Bagman was really good.

Review | Sa Wakas, The Musical
I’d been wanting to post a Sa Wakas review since its opening night, but time is rarely on my side lately, so that little thing got shoved into the backburner every single time. Now that the run is officially over (they closed last Sunday, February 12), I feel like I should at least try to articulate …

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

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
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
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
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
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.
