Holy Kamote!!
...may be one of my favorite expressions in the sequel to Popped!
I was browsing the bookstore the other day looking for the next book to read whenI saw one shiny orange-colored cover of a book with a very familiar cover illustration. As I came close I realized that it was Popped! I really was surprised! I thought that it didn't have a sequel or...it wasn't supposed to have a sequel! BUT there it was staring right at me. Popped Too! I bought one immediately and I have to say, it's one of the best investment on a book written by a Filipino I have ever made! Gosh that made me proud! I usually just buy and/or read Bob Ong's books but Chinggay Labrador blew me away! It was like reading another Shopaholic book that I couldn't put down once I started reading. Seriously, it's so awesome.
The story is basically about Andie and her K-pop fan BFFs Cesca, Nica and Trixie.
When Nica became really famous in South Korea as a fashion model and is faced with internet issues about her and Jungsang. Andie and her friends decided to help their best friend and fly to Seoul. Andie's problem wasn't just that. She had to face the most kilig and confusing dilemma, Mac Park. Well....I wouldn't really say that Mac Park was a dilemma. It was the most romantic, uber heart melting dilemma ever! haha! .....MU sila! can't get any more confusing than that! They like each other but they're just not sure whether the other likes the latter. Eh.. tama ba?
Sooo.. They all went for a 4-day trip in Seoul. Andie, Trixie, Cesca and surprisingly, Steven (Cesca's boyfriend). On the airplane, Andie met David Tae, who is annoyingly talkative but super helpful and such a gentleman. Initially, Andie wasn't supposed to tell Mac Park about her visit in Korea but in eventually she couldn't ignore the feeling anymore and her nagging friends to inform Mac Park. So they met up and it was one of the most "eeeeeee!!!!" moment ever! ...if you know what I mean. I can't state all the details!! Thou shall have to have thy own copy to get jelly legs and perhaps...jelly hearts!
During the trip, Andie had dates with Mac Park at The 1st shop of coffee prince, COEX where they sought out Kinky Robots, and made a promise under the stars....... nah! kidding on the last part! :)) It was all so romantic thou shall have to read it!!! NOW!
Steven had unexpected happenings too! Nica even solved her problems and had a very cute twist in the end. Eventually everyone had their own happy endings and cute moments.
The cutest happy ending didn't happen until 2 months later, though. It was worth the wait, I guess! :D

i.Robot x Time Traveler's Wife book bargain
I went earlier at Booksale to get a new book since I'm almost done with Shopaholic and Sister (I have the complete set! ^__^) and browsed for books-turned-to-movies or movie-inspired books (dunno the right term for that..) and i.Robot caught my eye!
Can you believe that it only cost me P30! What a bargain! hahaha
PROOF! lol
gonna make a blogpost when I finish reading it soon :)
Ooooh! And check out what I found there too!
GOAL! and 4 copies of Time Traveler's Wife!
GOAL! cost P115 I think and I only saw 1 copy. Didn't buy it though, as I already bought i.Robot.
Time Traveler's Wife cost ONLY P145! Real bargain!!! If I didn't already have a copy, I'm sure I would've bought one immediately!
