For those of you familiar with my blog, you know that I usually do book reviews. A lot of them are young adult novels by foreign authors. However, I have featured a couple of books from local authors as well.
As an aspiring author myself, I feel that our local authors need a lot of help promoting their work. So, I’m hoping to be able to do just that here in the blog. It gives me great pleasure to start off with news about a local book that has been made available to the market.
Are you familiar with Tsina Cajayon, the author of “My Chinita Boss”? She has come out with another romantic pop novel that will touch your heart and make you cry, called “The Last Wish” from Lifebooks.
Here’s a little teaser about the book:
Paano mo ibabalik ang nakaraan at itatama ang mali?
Paano mo tuturuan ang puso na huwag nang magmahal dahil hindi rin ito magtatagal?When Franco De Guzman found out that he has a rare heart problem na posibleng ikamatay niya nang kahit anong oras ay agad siyang nabahala sa dalawang bagay: Una, mawawalan ng isang guwapong lalaki sa mundo at pangalawa ay hindi pa siya nakakahingi ng tawad kay Georgina Escudero sa mga kasalanan niya noong high school sila. Nang makita niya si Georgina ay nagbago ang lahat. Ang puso niyang may expiration date ay tila gusto pang humingi ng extra life para lamang makasama ito ng matagal. Ang puso niyang hindi naman marunong umibig ay tila gustong kumuha ng crash course para lang matutunan niya kung paano siya mamahalin ni Georgina kahit alam niyang ikakasal na ito kay James. Paano niya sasabihin kay Georgina na huwag na si James at siya na lang? Will there be a chance that he’ll be her Last Wish?
Published by Lifebooks, “The Last Wish” is now available in all branches of National Bookstore, Powerbooks, and Pandayan Bookshop nationwide. Coming soon in Fully Booked and Precious Pages Bookshop.

I agree! There are a lot of really talented Filipino authors. I hope to find the time to read more works by them (and by you). 🙂 And one day, I hope that I, too, would be able to sit down and write my first book.

Hi, Janice! It’s me again 🙂 I really love that I can find book recommendations here on your site. Glad that a Filipino author has made it on YA romance novels that are so in these days. 🙂
