Hello everyone!
I'm Tin from Antipolo City and I love to read... though not as much as the real bibliophiles out there. I decided to join this community to become one, so I'm hoping people from this community will help me dig into the right stuff. :-)

Looking forward to gaining more knowledge about books and making friends with fellow readers here~ See you guys around!

Thanks! And yes, I will. Sa ngayon, I'm hooked with non-fiction particularly those focused on psychology. Kakatuwa kasi tsaka naliliwanagan ako he he. I also read classics pero break muna dun sa ngayon. General fiction din pag sawa na sa non-fiction. :-)

Ikaw?

Ah I see. Paalam ako, ah! Tingnan ko catalog mo para makakuha ng idea kung anong mga pwede pang basahin. :-) Although it will take long cause my guilt pile's still sinfully towering over me. Hu hu

Sino favorite author mo? Ako... sa fiction si Khaled Hosseini, JK Rowling (Casual Vacancy), tsaka si Haruki Murakami. Kaunti pa lang talaga nababasa ko kaya limited din kilala kong authors. He he. Hope you can share again.

Sure. But my catalog's not updated.
Don't ya worry; most of us has tons of unread books. i even have books that i bought two or three years ago that i have not read.

Favorite author, Rowling because of Harry Potter. I have not read any of her books, though.
I love the Devil and Miss Prym and the Veronika Decides to Die by Paolo Coelho.
I totally like and super enjoyed the Mortal instruments and infernal Devices series by Cassandra Clare.
You might also want to try Graceling by Kristin Cashore. Kick-ass heroine!

Im not a voracious reader as you might think. Laila, our YA moderator, reads non-stop. I think she can recommend more books than me.
by the way, i have not read any Hosseini and Murakami's books. :)

Thanks for the info! Will try Coelho (though I've been planning it for like one year already? ha ha). And Graceling, I'll search for that.

We're the same with Clare's Mortal Instruments. :-) I love Clary!
