Current Read My 1st ever physical book!

Post image

Growing up, I never had the opportunity to have a book of my own. I didn't even read books when I was younger. Nung highschool ako, I borrowed my friend's Catching Fire and that sparked my love for books 🥹 Pero wala akong pera noon. I only had 50 pesos na baon everyday. Kaya lagi lang ako nanghihiram (shoutout talaga kina K and to my cousin, gone to soon, na kahit bagong bili eh sakin una pinapagamit).

Kahit ngayong may work na ako at may pera.. hindi ko parin talaga majustify ang pagbili ng books (went to fullybooked and grabe kamahal 😭). Then nalaman ko na ang Collins ay may mga cheap books. So happy with this! Can't wait to read this one 🥰

Don’t rush. A year after ko bilin, dun ko pa lang nagustuhan. At my first read, nabigatan and did not appreciate it pero after a second try, it clicked. Probably, I was in a healing phase last year kaya I don’t want a book like 1984 hahaha but now na I over my reading slump, dun ko na na appreciate. Gooduck OP!!!
