As international best sellers are being released one after another, it becomes easy to forget about the works of our homegrown writers. In the past years, Summit Books has fostered Filipino talent by launching novels that have become some of the most popular reads in the Pinoy Chick Lit genre, proving that Filipinos have it in them to produce literature that is fresh, modern, and easy to read.
Summit Books launches two new and exciting reads that are sure to bring every reader through the roller coaster ride of falling in and out of love.
Every Girl’s Guide to Heartache by Marla Miniano is the first in what is to be an “Every Girl’s Guide” series. This first offering features the story of Anna, who has just been dumped by Jaime, the guy she thought was the love of her life. While she is distraught, angry and seeking revenge, she also wants to understand how this perfect guy ended up not being The One after all. Entering the picture to complicate matters is Miguel, who is literally The Boy a Few Houses Down. Will Anna survive this heartache and be happy again, and does her happiness lie with Miguel? Or is her heart just playing tricks on her?
Vince’s Life: The Next Chapter by Vince O. Teves is the much-awaited sequel to Vince’s Life. After Andrea, the love of Vince’s life, leaves for the US, Vince lands a job as a copywriter at an award-winning advertising agency. As he learns the ins and outs of writing for advertising campaigns, he also finds himself falling for Cat, the fun and sexy account executive. Life is great, until Andrea decides to come home for the holidays. Will Vince realize that he has loved Andrea all this time, or is his heart finally ready to move on and find love with someone like Cat?
