What I enjoy the most about Mina’s books is that they’re quick and fun as well as witty and heartwarming. So far, I have purchased and read eBooks of Fairy Tale Fail and Interim Goddess of Love via Amazon next up on my list would be getting copies of My Imaginary Ex, No Strings Attached and Love Your Frenemies. Since then, I’ve been looking forward to her works. It didn’t hurt that the kind of books she wrote were those I like to read. The more I asked around, the more I was in awe of her publishing journey. Esguerra and her books through Chachic’s Book Nook and during last year’s Filipino Reader Conference, wherein I remember her speaking during the Q&A portion of the book blogging panel, acknowledging the contribution of bloggers to the sales of her books.
