I really enjoyed Ana Tejano's story, because Nico and French Fries! I have yet to read the other stories but I'm sure they're great as well!

Revisiting the #romanceclass holiday anthology on a quiet Christmas Eve at the family beach resort. Happy holidays, all!

#bookanddinner the other day: still reading short stories from the #romanceclass Make My Wish anthology. Included in the shot was the ravioli that I had.😋

#bookanddinner: salad, cake, tea latte and the #romanceclass Christmas anthology. Romance short stories set in the Philippines during Christmastime.❤🎄 I bought this book last year and gave the physical copies as gifts to friends. But I haven't finished reading all the stories, so I'm going back to read the ones I missed last year. Have you started reading any Christmas stories?

My second cup of coffee for the day was this delicious mango latte. Again with a pile of #romanceclass titles in the background.

Happy book birthday this debut novel, Ghost of a Feeling!🎂📖 I'm very intrigued by the premise: a young doctor loses faith in herself and is about to attempt suicide on Halloween night, when what she believes to be her building's resident ghost stops her (he's actually a guy pretending to be a ghost).👻 Isn't that enough to give you chills? It's a #romanceclass title so I'm glad there's a HEA guarantee.🙌 Really looking forward to reading this.

A few days ago, I posted about the cover reveal of Ghost of a Feeling by Celestine Trinidad on my blog: https://chachic.wordpress.com/2017/09/30/cover-reveal-ghost-of-a-feeling-by-cele...

This is an upcoming Filipino-romance-in-English, with a cover designed by Filipino graphic artist Miles Tan.💕 The book isn't on Litsy yet but I'm tagging an anthology that has a short story written by the author.

Anthologies tend to be slow reads for me because I would read a couple of the stories then tend to forget about the book. I started these before the holiday season and I still haven't finished them yet. Also, I bought more limited edition Chinese New Year cookies! Earl grey rose and strawberry marnier, perfect for tea time.🍵💖

frankincense_and_sensibility Earl grey rose sounds like the greatest tea cookie imaginable. 8y
MeganB Those cookies sound amazing! 8y
Chachic @frankincense_and_sensibility Right? I knew I had to get it as soon as I heard they have it. I'm a sucker for tea-flavored desserts. They also had a lychee lavender flavor that I was curious about, but it was sold out. 8y

Chachic @MeganB They have really interesting flavors! Kind of whimsical, I think. I was also considering a champagne lychee flavor. They also had cherry pistachio and blueberry vanilla. 8y
MeganB Ok, adding champagne cookies to my list of foods I need to eat before I die, that sounds awesome! 8y
Chachic @MeganB Wah, you're making me want to go back to the cookie store and buy that flavor! 8y

My story in #MakeMyWishComeTrue is set during Christmas Eve, where MC Faith, a disaster management worker, is on monitoring duty because a tropical storm (Nock-ten) is about to hit the country. Interestingly, there's a tropical storm making its way to the Philippines right now and will bring rains over the Christmas weekend. One of those many times that art is imitating life/life imitating art? 🙊

itstimeana In addition: my best friend is a dev worker, and he might be on montoring duty over the weekend because of the storm, and he was my source for this story. #romanceclass #romantsy 8y

#bookandlunch: I bought dimsum from the hawker center (local food court) near our place and remembered that I had already read this Christmas short story because it was available on its own. Make My Wish Come True is having its book launch in Manila this afternoon, and it's one of those bookish events that I'm sad I'm missing.😭

#bookanddinner: reading this short story next because I'm curious about Carla de Guzman's If the Dress Fits. This will be the first time I'll be reading anything by this Filipino author. Had a long and tiring work day so I felt like I needed another caffeine boost in the form of the orange mocha pictured here.☕🍊

minavesguerra The Suzette de Borja one reads like a standalone :) 8y
Chachic @minavesguerra Thanks for the heads up! Maybe I'll read that next.🤔 8y

#bookanddinner was salted egg prawn pasta, lavender grey tea and the first short story that I want to read from this anthology.🍵🍝🍤 It features the characters from @minavesguerra 's Wedding Night Stand and What You Wanted. I'm pretty sure there will be lots of food involved (Christmas in the Philippines is always like that).

#romanceclass' Christmas anthology was released when December started and it was an auto-buy title for me, how could I resist romance set during Christmastime in the Philippines?🎄🎄🎁🎁 Just took me a while to buy it because it's only available on Gumroad and not Amazon. Looking forward to reading these stories! The book isn't here on Litsy so I'm tagging another book by one of the authors.
