Hi! I just stumbled upon this website and I was a bit surprised that we actually have a philippine reader's community. To be honest, I discovered this site while I was browsing and browsing for information about our country's book industry status and development. I'm joining this community not only because I'm part of the "book-lover" crowd, but also because I need to gather information about how or what are the specifications filipino book readers (particularly: YOUNG ADULTS like me) look for when they choose/purchase a book.

Hope you guys could help me! To be clear as to why I need your help is because I need to do my THESIS regarding: our book industry, what GENRES of books YOUNG ADULTS prefer these days, and how would they like to see a new development in books. For example: the graphics books or picture books targeting young adult (from ages 14 to 21) :D
