@bookstodon My review of #AngMgaKaibiganNiMamaSusan (Mama Susan's Friends) by #BobOng has just gone live! It's kind of slow in the first half, but it picks up in the second half and BOY is it creepy! Or at least it is to me: I grew up on this specific brand of Filipino horror and it was pretty fun just because of that.

@bookstodon A fascinating article by Gina Apostol, about the influence Jose Rizal, the Philippines' national hero, exerts on our culture and, therefore, on our literature - especially those from the capital. I can't really speak for those from the provinces, whose view on Rizal's influence on literature and culture may not be quite as overwhelming or even positive.
