My 3(and a half) Reading Goals for the Year
To start off with a very honest answer I want to read 100 books. Why? Because why not? I believe that I can do it, it’s only eight and a bit books a month and I’ve already read six books by the time I’m writing this. I have a strong capability to read books really fast and so I thought I’d give myself a few additional challenges to make the task harder than it needs to be.

My favorite Pinoy middle grade books
I want to provide some information about respected first Filipino middle-grade books that are on my top list. "Gimo Jr. and the Aswang Clan" contain themes and supernatural elements that readers of Goosebumps, Harry Potter, and the Janus Silang series may be familiar with, but this middle-grade book is unique. Pasaporte does a fantastic job of remaining authentically Filipino while departing from the typical "strange and eerie barrio vibes."
