New Products from Regent!

New products from Regent include Hokaido Fish Crackers, Pineapple Pie, and Mochi

My mom had nothing to do these past few days so she tried to send an email to Regent. She told them that we have patronized their products for a long time (since I was at preschool) and thanked them for the delicious products they have made these past few years (how touching). XD

Regent was very thoughtful to have replied to her. They asked for our address and asked us if we wanted to try their new products. My mom quickly replied to Regent and after a few days, voila! We had our hands on some very nice products. 

New Reads!

Hey!

I should have posted this article a week ago but since I was too busy to post it, I consider this one as a 'Late Post'. XD

Fully Booked celebrated its 6th Anniversary last July 12 and they had a sale to celebrate it. Of course, I wouldn't miss it for anything so I quickly planned to go there right away while the sale was still on!

After an hour of deciding, I ended up with these selections; The Last Apprentice: Revenge of the Witch by Joseph Delaney and Paper Towns by John Green. I got both books at 20% off so instead of buying them for a total amount of P700, I got them both for only P560. What a bargain! :bd

I actually have read Revenge of the Witch before but that was like, more than two years ago? I decided it was time to read it again and start collecting the series since I found it very entertaining. When I mean 'entertaining', I mean the 'Philippine Ghost Stories' type of entertaining. Although not that scary. But the illustrations in the book can sometimes send some chills down your spine. This book is great for you if you love a good thriller before going to sleep or whatnot.

Paper Towns was not really a book that caught my attention, but a friend of mine, Kristine Suarez, recommended John Green books to me. (Hi Kristine! :D) She told me his books were very nice and appealing so I got curious. Every time I go to bookstores I see his books too on the young adult bestsellers corner. I hope that I can relate to this book since I rarely read non-fantasy novels very much. I always read books with magic and stuff and I've never strayed to the 'real life' books, except maybe the Perks of Being a Wallflower.

So that's it for this 'Late Post'! I hope you can try reading these selections, too! I'm sure you'll enjoy them as much as I will.

May every page be filled with excitement,

P.S. I'm more than halfway through The Lightning Thief right now! :))

Harry Potter 15th Anniversary Edition!

Hey! :D

I was just browsing my Facebook news feed and I saw the Harry Potter 15th Anniversary Edition covers! These covers will appear on the paperback edition of the series this September. The covers are simply amazing! The covers were made by Kazu Kibuishi, illustrator of the graphic novel series Amulet. He made those covers to commemorate the15th Anniversary of the US publication of the first book, The Sorcerer's Stone.

The first cover was already released last February and they have been releasing the next covers one-by-one. Harry Potter and The Sorcerer's Stone's cover depicts Harry and Hagrid at Diagon Alley. Well, not much of a spoiler, since its the first book. The original Scholastic cover showed Harry riding his broom.

The second one, though, can give the readers of only the first book a bit of a spoiler. The original Scholastic cover of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets shows Harry finding the message on the wall written in blood. If you think this is cool, check out the third cover.

This, by far, is the coolest cover I've ever seen from the series! Not only does it intrigue you on what's going to happen, it also depicts one of the greatest mysteries of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. I won't tell for those who haven't read the book yet. ;) The original was the one with Harry and Hermione riding Buckbeak.

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire's cover is amazing as well! Although it shows the same scene as the cover of the Bloomsbury edition. Its still awesome! The Hungarian Horntail was depicted well.

The fifth and latest cover to be released is the Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix's cover. It is, for me, the second best cover of the series. Although, I'd have preferred it a little bit darker. Everybody's a critic, including me. XD I think its much better than the original though.

Well, that's it for the covers. They haven't released the remaining two book covers yet, but I have a feeling it would be more awesome than these ones. Especially the Deathly Hallows cover.

Oh yeah, Scholastic has also announced that it will release the first boxed set of the complete Hogwarts Library on November!!! Woohoo! Finally! I've waited long enough for that. :D 

May dementors not cross your path,
