Music x Book Match: Ben&Ben
In mid-December, I started a Twitter thread that matched Ben&Ben songs with #romanceclass titles, and it garnered a bit of attention from my mutuals as well as people I don’t know. Because that thread was made rather haphazardly, I thought of creating a new one with better visuals and stuff, but things got busy right …
Places to See: Ili-Likha Artists Village, Baguio City
I first read about Ili-likha Artists Village in 2016, while I was poking around the Internet for Baguio City finds.

My favorite bookstagrams of 2019
I don’t remember exactly when I first encountered the the hashtag #bookstagram, but I did find it fascinating in an instant.

COVER REVEAL: Second Wave Summer
Sometime in the future, I feel like no one’s going to believe Jay, Six, and me when we say we have nothing up our sleeves. But honest to god, we really didn’t have one until mid-February (unlike the time we were planning Summer Crush, which went on for almost a year) and we were even doubtful we’d …
