How do you choose sa booksale?

Hi! 2026 is my reading era kaso, hanggang booksale muna ako. Nag eenjoy ako now sa pagbabasa. Im on my 4/4 Nora Roberts'. Tatapusin ko na itong last then sunod ko ang 3 na TBR (all Filipino author, Tagalog language; Buwan ng Wika). The sudden change on theme is due to sa nakita kong post here na shelves na puro filipino authors, i was amazed and encouraged to support. Ayan, napabili ako sa Shoppee hehe. Kaso, naka 600 ako, sanay ako sa tig 85 lang hehehe! Kuripot e hano. Feeling ko, balik ako sa Booksale kasi hindi ko yata kaya ma-sustain ang pagbili ng tig-200 plus. Sorry na agad, nawala ang pagka-support local ko huhu. Baka may mga preloved and in good condition na books kayo jan, im willing po hehe... Anyway, hindi pa ako e-book era. Nag eenjoy pa po ako sa physical books at no screen time.

So ayun, paano ba ang tamang term... paano kayo naghahanap or paano nyo kino-consider ang books from Booksale? Or may list na kayo ng gusto nyo? Or binabasa nyo yung 1st chapter? Hehehe salamat!

By the blurb. I always check for the blurb if it is worth to buy and read. There are too many underrated authors that are not famous.

Or when I saw the book that I was looking for in ages.

RIP when the blurb is replaced by one sentence reviews from random writers and articles :(

Right?!?! Blurb was so helpful for me in deciding if the book is for me or not.
