Hello po. Ako si Areli. :) 15 years old from Nueva Ecija. Lahat yata ng libro gusto ko, e. Pero Bob Ong pa rin ang the best. \m/

^^ Arrgghh Hello Jeng! Take your time, look at your options, but the most important thing is choose carefully! Like books. The residents here are always kind enough to give you bits of info about a book.
Hi all :D I'm mel, a veterinary medicine student. i love YA books and mangas. But i've decided to explore other genres as well. :D nice to meet you all!
Hi mel! I'm into mangas as well. Right now my diet consists of fruits and I will probably include that as well. Welcome to GR-Pinas!
Hi guys! I just got into Goodreads for about a month ago. Kakasali ko lang sa group nung isang araw ata.Ako nga pala si Inah, college freshman. :)
Bata pa lang ako mahilig na talaga ako magbasa. Yung kasikatan ng True Philippine Ghost Stories. Haha.
Hindi ako mapili sa genre ng libro, though more on fiction. Basta lang matripan ko pero since inclined ako sa mga supernatural, marami akong librong nabasa tungkol sa mga kung anu-ano, like vampires, werewolves, witches, ghosts. Rumo-romance din ako. Haha.
Favorite Authors ko sina L.J. Smith, Rick Riordan at J.K. Rowling. Sa tagalog naman, Bob Ong syempre. Nagbabasa din ako ng PHR. Haha. Isa pa, si Jose Rizal. Noli saka El Fili, kakabit na ng buhay ko yun. Haha
At ayuun. Wala na kong masabi. Nice meeting you all! :D
Una kong ginamit ang Goodreads to find books lang, and ngayon ko lang talaga siya ginamit for discussions and talks. I'm so happy to find out na meron palang Filipino community here.
Nga pala, Ako po si Kate, hindi short for Katherine, Katlyn or Katakot. Kate lang po talaga lol
Siguro masasabi ko po, wala akong favorite na Author. Maybe it's Stephen King since most of the books I own are his, yet I don't feel like he is. Hindi ko rin masasabi na si Markus Zusak even though The Book Thief is the one book that introduced me to the other side of the world, the real dystopian world. Any Author will do for me as long as the story caught my attention. And yes, Dystopian books are my thing. I can't get enough of them XD
And ako po siguro ung masasabi nyong baby pa in terms of reading. Been only less than two years since I hold my first book. At hiram lang dito hiram lang doon ang ginagawa ko. (not until I learned about Book sale of course lol)
Hope to know you all!

^^ Nurture that germ in you Kate. As we Cebuano-speakers say, "Pagpatakod." (Infect)You will find that a book is the best thing your hands, eyes, and brains will have laid upon.

Welcome Kate :)
@Albiserver: I will. I certainly will! :) I'll take that as a welcome message as well, so thanks so much!
@Vim and Ayban: Thanks po sa welcome!
@Vim and Ayban: Thanks po sa welcome!
Guys,I'm cleaning up my book shelves since I'll be moving out next year. I'm selling most of my paper back/ hard bound books at discounted prices. Please do send me a message if you are looking for a book then I'll confirm if I have the title you are looking for.
*I do not have a full inventory yet, some of them are in the attic pa.
Do text me @ 0922-8838160, or email me at zai_chie@yahoo.com.
Most of the books I have are under the thriller/suspense genre, classics, romance, and history.
Ciao!
Hahaha...I feel sorta out of place in this post because for one, I've been a member of this group since 2009, but I've never really been an active member. I mostly concentrated on my shelfari account. So, although I sometimes update on the books I've read, I've never really joined in discussions in my groups. However, today, I checked my email and I got reeled in by the "100 Best Books list" that Filipinos is trying to make, and also by the fact that Filipinos is going to read Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card. I sometimes like doing lists or polls when I feel like it, but I am an Absolute Fan of Orson Scott Card and the Ender series. Interesting things are happening, so I thought I might as well be an "active" member, finally. =)So, hi everyone! I know this is two years two late, but still, HI!
PS: I love science-fiction and fantasy.
Jam: Jam ohh Jam! You're not lost. Welcome to the club of Ender Saga die-hard fanatics. :D Yes, I hope that you'll join the discussion this December. :) Welcome to the group!

I haven't seen much discussion on science-fiction books in Filipinos, so I thought that most people here weren't interested in sci-fi. I'm glad to see I was wrong. It would be great to talk to people who like sci-fi, same as me. Where I live, finding a person who even knows Orson Scott Card is almost impossible.
Jam: Actually there are lots of us who love OSC. Okay, I'll add you up nalang for me to know your sci-fi books and get good recos from you. :)
Rollie: thanks. Actually, right now, I'm speedily clicking my mouse and updating my online bookshelves in goodreads.
