A Goodreader Gives Us a Thumbs Up!

We’re excited and grateful to see that Anvil has provided Filipino book bloggers with review copies of Angelica’s Daughters. A young reader recently posted his review over at Goodreads, and it was so fun read his description of our book as “well-written…unique…half chick lit, half historical fiction.” And he even reminded everyone to try out Angelica’s recipe for tsokolate! Thank you, Goodreads reviewer!

Just yesterday I was reading the new “Tsinoy” (Chinese-Filipino) issue of the wonderful Our Own Voice, and I noticed they’ve included Angelica’s Daughters on their December 2010 Bookshelf. Thank you, Our Own Voice! I’m intrigued by many of the books on the Bookshelf: Jon Pineda’s Sleep In Me and Peter Bachco’s Leaving Yesler, among many others, caught my eye.

Finally, I wanted to congratulate Angelica’s Daughters co-author Cecilia Brainard on her new book—also just published by Anvil—called Vigan & Other Stories. This is another book I’m very much looking forward to reading! You can order it from Anvil here, or if you have an e-reader, the Kindle edition is available via Amazon here.

Thanks for reading! Check back soon!
