Clarissa Trinidad Gonzalez | 1 comments Hello, I'm new in this group. I'm also a Goodreads author. (My upcoming novel is called "Celestina's House.") I recently discovered "My MacArthur" by Filipino-American author Cindy Fazzi. Beautifully written historical romance about General Douglas MacArthur and his Filipino paramour, Isabel Rosario Cooper.https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4... Next, I'm planning to read Fazzi's thriller, "Multo."

Random Spider (on a hiatus?) | 36 comments Yumi and the Nightmare Painter by Brandon Sanderson
Yumi and the Nightmare Painter by Brandon Sanderson is a great stand-alone fantasy book in the Cosmere universe, and an explorative take of the author into the romance genre.

The Stranger in the Lifeboat by Mitch Albom was kinda disappointing, especially from the author who had a book topped my rankings.

message 237: by Pia (new)

Pia (z0phia) | 16 comments Reading a non-fiction title called Departures, written by Priscilla Supnet Macansantos. It's a collection of essays published by UP Press, and I was drawn to it because of 1) Butch Dalisay's blurb and 2) the elegant cover

Dugo Sa Bukang-Liwayway (Bleeding Sun) by Rogelio Sicat is a translated 20th Century Filipino classic worth reading.
