Rabbitin Turns 3!

Let's make a toast! (image source)
I woke up early today, on account of the loud blaring of William Tell Overture from a PA system at the Town Hall, which can be heard for miles. (Don't ask me why that song. But no we don't have horse racing from where I'm from.) And I realize with a jolt that the 12th of June is my blog's anniversary! (And the country's day of independence of course, I'm not that forgetful)  My gosh. It's been three years! Can you believe it? I can't. And since I already blabbered my blog's origin story in my past anniversary post, so no need to subject you with that one yet again. And as much as this post is for me and my blog, it is more for my readers really. Why, I don't think I would even write a single darned word if not for you. And I truly, really mean it when I say I am very thankful for the support, for the comments, for the recommendations, for the Facebook likes....And for the past two years, I always make it a point to give a quick mention to those who have dropped by and took time to write their two cents on my posts, since the preceding anniversary. Some of you have even been constantly there since the year that precedes the preceding year! And I love you all for it!

ABNKKBSNPLAKo by Bob Ong (REVISITED)

"Bakit namamalo si Miss Uyehara? May mga notebook bang lumilipad? Bakit masakit sa ulo ang Mafhemafics? Ano ang lihim sa likod ng pagkakaibigan nila Pepe at Tagpi? Bakit may mga taong nakapikit sa litrato? Masarap ba ang Africhado? Sino si Tigang? Bakit may mga classroom na kulang ang upuan? Masama bang mag-isip nang malalim habang naglalakad? Saan ang Ganges River sa Pilipinas? Bakit may mga umaakyat ng overpass pero hindi tumatawid? Sino ang webmaster ng bobongpinoy sa Internet?" I remember having read this book sometime during the end high school or the start of my college years. I did not think much of this book back then. Now, re-reading it as a legitimate (ehem) adult, I found that my appreciation for it has increased.   The power of this book lies in nostalgia. The shared experiences of student life, as humorously related by Bob Ong. And I realized that these experiences, more or less, never really varies THAT much from era to era. The 70s born P...

Instead of Three Wishes by Megan Whalen Turner

Image
Image from Goodreads The first time I've heard of Megan Whalen Turner is through Chachic of Chachic's Book Nook . If you follow/frequent her blog, you'd know that she is a huge fan of Whalen's The Thief Series. Being a fantasy fan myself, I've put in The Thief in my (very long) book wish list. Since, I haven't really gotten around acquiring The Thief just yet, when I saw her name on this book I thought it would be a good chance for me to get acquainted with Whalen's writing style. Instead of Three Wishes contains seven short stories, all depicting the existence of magic in everyday lives. 1. Plague of Leprechaun - Tells the story of how a small idyllic town of North Twicking is shaken up by the news of a Leprechaun Sighting, bringing in an influx of tourists coveting the bag of gold that a leprechaun brings. All this chaos proves to be too much for Mag Malleaster, the local innkeeper, and to Roger Otterly, a struggling painter commissioned to come up w...

Top Ten Series I'd Like To Start But Haven't Yet

Image
Top Ten Tuesday is a meme hosted by The Broke and The Bookish. More info HERE . My list includes the series that I am most interested in starting but haven't yet due to any or all of the following reasons: There are quite a number of other series that I have already started on and thus must finish first before starting any new ones; Overflowing TBR as it is; Not enough cash; Not enough guts (horror genre); And or mood swings.  1. The Lion Hunters Series by Elizabeth Wein - I found out about this through Chachic of Chachic's Book Nook , whose taste in books I find closely similar to mine, so I have a feeling I'll adore this book just like most of the titles she recommends to me. 2. A Song of Fire and Ice Series by G.R.R. Martin - This was huge last year, with the HBO series starting all the buzz. So, I am hoping to jump into the bandwagon someday. Besides I haven't had any epic high fantasy since LOTR. 3. The Ender's Series by Orson Scott Card - They say...
