'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 ...

[Blog tour] Review: Cities by Carla de Guzman + Interview & Giveaway!

"What if in another universe, I loved you too?" That tagline just got to me enough to make me curious about this book. I'm glad I was able to read it! Interesting, fascinating, confusing and bittersweet. Title: Cities by Carla de Guzman Release Date: November 30th 2014 Published by: Midnight Books Buy: Amazon | Createspace Summary: Celia has dreams. She dreams of going to Seoul for that scholarship she never took, of leaving everything behind and moving to New York. In all those dreams, she finds herself attached to Benedict, the boy she has always loved, who didn’t love her back. Ben believes in parallel worlds. Worlds where the things you didn’t do come true—worlds where he went to London and fell in love with Celia, where he shows up on the day she needed him most. He believes that dreams are glimpses into that parallel world, and it’s not a coincidence that Celia’s been having them too. It’s the day of Ben’s wedding, in the middle of a typhoon in Manila. How wil...

ARC Review: Golden Son (Red Rising Trilogy, #2) by Pierce Brown

Allow me to borrow that swear word often used in the book and use it in a sentence that will somehow express my feelings for this sequel, which I loved more than I ever did with Red Rising. That was bloodydamn amazing and traumatically painful . I just suffered full emotional carnage of the worst kind at the hands of this book, and I wouldn't have it any other way. And when I say carnage, it was like I opened a box that held all my emotions and Pierce Brown took everything, the joy, laughter, sadness, pain, surprise and ripped every single one of them into shreds. Title: Golden Son (Red Rising Trilogy #2) by Pierce Brown Release Date: January 6th 2015 Published by: Del Rey Source: Publisher (Thank you, Penguin Random House!) Buy: Amazon | Book Depository Summary: With shades of The Hunger Games , Ender’s Game , and Game of Thrones , debut author Pierce Brown’s genre-defying epic Red Rising hit the ground running and wasted no time becoming a sensation. Golden Son continues th...

Maligayang Pasko + giveaway!

Ah yes, it's that time of the year when I am most excited, not because of the long holiday (okay, maybe a little) but because it's one of the most festive time of the year for me and my family. I'd like to extend my greetings to all my readers, so I say Maligayang Pasko ! It means "Merry Christmas" in my native language. Wherever you are in the world, and whoever you may be celebrating this day with, may you all be filled with happiness and love. One of the best things during this time of the year, especially for me, is seeing a big smile on the faces of my family and loved ones as we celebrate the birth of Christ. In the spirit of giving, I'm doing a quick give away to one of my lucky readers. I meant to give this away early this month, but I've been too busy with work and a lot of other things, so I'm taking this opportunity to give this away now. Fill out the rafflecopter form and tell me: How are you celebrating this year? What gifts did you get? ...

Relish by Kate Evangelista Scavenger Hunt!

Welcome, welcome. *using my best Effie Trinket voice* So you're here for the Relish scavenger hunt, yeah? You came to the right place. Now feel free to check the blog, or you can just scroll down below to see the next page of the story. (I'm Page 2!) A fair warning: It's a good chapter. You'd want to keep on reading. So give it to the urge and continue with the hunt right after! You just need to click on the link for "Next Page" to find out what happens next. ~Page 2~ My breathing hitches. I open my mouth, but no words come out. Another twist just below my navel forces me into a fetal position, clutching my abdomen. It feels like something wants to crawl out, ripping me from the inside. I opened my eye to the predawn darkness and gasped. Holy hell! Chanting? Fuckin’ chanting? Really? I swallowed down the bile rising up my throat. Tremors ravaged my sweat-slicked body beneath the thick comforters smothering me. Since returning to my apartment, my dreams had tak...

Signing recap: Lang Leav PH Book signing! #LangLeavinPH

For a very new reader of poems like me, her pieces struck a chord in my heart countless of times, from her first book Love and Misadventure and then Lullabies, Lang Leav has been very much in my radar. (You should see my IG and tweets about her poems, seriously) That's why I was so excited when I found out that she's coming here. Finally! Who says I only read YA? Despite the gloomy weather, I arrived early with a friend at the venue so we had some time to kill. And by that I mean figuring out how the coffee machine works, what kind of coffee there was and deciding whether we should have tea or not, all while we chat and catch up with each other. Lang arrived around half an hour later and that familiar nervousness when you meet an author face to face was back. Despite having an early start to her day, she was still all smiles and said hi to everyone and was so excited to talk to us! What a pretty smile! The question and answer part started and I've always loved this part of ...
