Blog Tour | Arsenic and Adobo (Tita Rosie’s Kitchen Mystery, #1) by Mia P. Manansala [Review]

4/5☕ | Arsenic and Adobo knows exactly who its audience is. If you’re a Filipino reading this, you will be comforted with familiarity. If you’re someone coming in from another culture, this is really a worthy introduction.

4.5/5☕ | Out of the books in the Friend Zone series, Life’s Too Short gave the most pay-off. This was so much more than a love story.

Review: Act Your Age, Eve Brown (The Brown Sisters, #3) by Talia Hibbert

5/5☕ | Act Your Age, Eve Brown is such a must-read not just when you are a fan of the series but also because it is a good contemporary romance in its own right. Enemies-to-lovers? Check! Sunshine-and-grumpy romance? Check! Plus one very surprising rep.

Review: Anxious People by Fredrik Backman

5/5☕ | I’m glad I read it at the time I did. Isn’t it funny how some books just sort of ‘find’ you in the most perfect of times?

Review: Warbreaker (Warbreaker, #1) by Brandon Sanderson

5/5☕ | Character-driven AND plot-driven, Warbreaker is a (relatively lol) short offering that showed a different side of Brandon Sanderson’s writing. Another great read in the Cosmere books!
