'After I Do' by Taylor Jenkins Reid

From the BLURB: When Lauren and Ryan’s marriage reaches the breaking point, they come up with an unconventional plan. They decide to take a year off in the hopes of finding a way to fall in love again. One year apart, and only one rule: they cannot contact each other. Aside from that, anything goes. Lauren embarks on a journey of self-discovery, quickly finding that her friends and family have their own ideas about the meaning of marriage. These influences, as well as her own healing process and the challenges of living apart from Ryan, begin to change Lauren’s ideas about monogamy and marriage. She starts to question: When you can have romance without loyalty and commitment without marriage, when love and lust are no longer tied together, what do you value? What are you willing to fight for? This is a love story about what happens when the love fades. It’s about staying in love, seizing love, forsaking love, and committing to love with everything you’ve got. And above all, After I Do ...

Huzzah! I am back with more posts!

So a few of my blogger friends and I got together and organized a book event for Rainbow Rowell's Carry On! The book is already out here in the Philippines (you can purchase your copies from National Bookstore!) and we will be having a small party this weekend, October 10th!

Quick Q&A:

Give me some details, woman!

When: October 10, 2015 3 to 5 pm
Where: Powerbooks Greenbelt

Registration starts at 2pm so better be there early!

Is there a limit for registration?
Nope. As long as we can fit in the venue, you can come and hang out with us!

Do we need to buy anything to join?
No you don't. You don't even need to pay a registration fee to attend the event. Just bring yourself and a friend or two and be prepared to meet other Rainbow Rowell fans and fellow book worms and do fun stuff with us!

What do you mean by fun stuff?
By fun stuff we mean there will be games and giveaways. You can win a Rainbow Rowell shirt, phone cases with any Rainbow Rowell quote you want (just 1 sentence though!), special edition Rainbow Rowell books. Did I say books? I also mean you can win books other than Rainbow Rowell's.

And? There's more?
We'll play the Carry On playlist! You'll see the book trailers! We'll also have tea! And blue and yellow drinks (For Simon and Baz! No booze, sorry!), there'll be cupcakes, balloons, temporary tattoos and since adult coloring books are in right now, we have the next best thing. You'll get a chance to color your own dust jacket of Carry On so go bring some coloring pens with you and destress with us!

Since we're gearing up for the launch which happens in two days, Kate of The Bookaholic Blurbs and yours truly went ahead and started the ball rolling by giving away a Carry On shirt. What does it look like, you wonder? *points down*


GIVEAWAY ALERT!
WIN A CARRY ON SHIRT!

It would be awesome to meet fellow fans at the event! So if you have time, drop by Powerbooks Greenbelt and grab a copy of Carry On and party with us!

MWF and ROMA 2016

Hello Darling Readers! Have you noticed - I'm slowly getting back into the swing of reviewing things? Yay for me! I have missed updating the blog :)  Just thought I'd interrupt the (now!) regularly scheduled reviewing to share some good news and events that are coming up ...  I am very lucky to have FIVE session at this year's Melbourne Writers Festival - I get to chair events for the enviably talented duo of Vikki Wakefield and Claire Zorn , plus two authors you might have heard of - Rainbow Rowell and David Levithan ? I get to ask Clementine Ford and Amy Gray their opinions on opinion writing - I think they'll have a few. Myself and Myke Bartlett will talk all about reviewing , and then I'll be teaming up with Sonia Nair for a fun and intense workshop on exactly how to write digital content and get your work published. Phew!  All details of my MWF session can be found here:  http://mwf.com.au/writer/danielle-binks/ And in other news ... I'm a finalist in the ...
