I was brought to the clinic yesterday because of sudden chest pain and the doctor advise me to seek professional assistance. They called it anxiety attack, I was shocked because it's my first time hearing it. I' m really nervous of the thought of me going to a doctor's office..🥹

It's easy to say that I'm addicted to audiobooks nowadays since I get to multitask while finishing a book. And also hearing the emotions of the narrators while going through the whole book and it gets me every time they convey emotions. My current read it still one of Rina Kent's book and still can't be sure if I can move on from all her books🤔 And it also excites me that one couple of her book series will finally get their own freaking book😲😲😲 March come soon please💸
@mommykim
Happy Holidays to all the book lovers, food lovers and all the lovers in the world. Let's stay healthy and happy in the year to come.. God Bless!

Currently reading/listening to Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yaros and I got sidetracked since it's been so long that I read a fiction story. As per my friend who recommend me this book that it's a 5 book series and book 3 is currently on the making and still not out. I got the hard copies of the two and it's a hardbound that I got for 3k ($51.72). I know it's a bit much and I am always blinded with my love with books that I sometimes don't care about the price as long as I have a copy of it forever since I like it. Now back to the book, I am on like the first quarter of the chapter and the events are quite intense and surprising to me. Never knew having a dragon born for you is so inspiring, not that I like one for myself but in that world , having a dragon is like a privilege. Not really updating but just telling what I'm reading these days or listening. What are you reading? HAPPY HOLIDAYS in Advance Guys!!!!

Reading Funny Story by Emily Henry as of the moment and this book made me feel like I'm back being a teenager again, falling in love and having my first heartbreak that nearly drain me of all my tears. Emily Henry is an author who lets you feel giddy and then wreak you after that you don't want to continue reading it Still not letting this book go until I finished it I guess, I'm a numb masochist of pain for me what are you reading ?
@mommykim
Windsor Seriew by Catharina Maura (6 Books) Start reading this just last week and now I'm on the last book. Woaaahhhhhhh Can't believed I'm this hooked of a 6-books series even though I've been lazy reading these days...(by talking about lazy is having to finish a book in 2-3days).. I really love the characters..it's only a semi dark romance though.. What are you reading?
@mommykim
Reading books aside I am so pride of my coworker for passing the Licensure exam for Teachers.. I was really worried about her and the more the hours tick by while waiting for the results the more agitated she is. So proud of my babies passing that board exam.. Congratulations to all LPT👏👏👏

Books recommendations I do love giving recommendations when it comes to books. I love reading so sharing what I like and the genres give me the confidence and adrenaline I didn't know I had. For some months now I have been in different kind of genres. I've also indulged myself in trying audiobooks as I get to multitask while working and doing chores. The good thing about audiobooks is you get to experience the real drama. Although having a wide range of images in reading, it's different in audiobooks because you get to encounter first-hand drama with the narrators. The way the narrator also cries in the heavy scenes is so enticing that it made me stick to listening to audiobooks for a while but still go back to my usual flipping pages in reading as it also gives me peace and comfort. So, my first recommendation would be The Legacy of Gods series by Rina Kent. I know most of the readers would recommend reading the first few generations of books before this but what hooks me with these is the characters, especially in book 5 as I really love Brandon King the most out of all the King siblings. So apologies if I jump up to this recent series that was written by my most loved author. LOG(Legacy Of God) series mostly talks about the feud between two schools and the respective leaders of the sorority. What entices me in reading is this is a kind of dark romance that you can't put down not after finishing it up to the end. The first couple would be Killian Carson from the Kings U and Glyndon King from the Royal Elite U. Their first encounter is kinda brutal and worst as I don't like the way Kill manhandles Glyn but through the course of the story they seem kinda fit with each other as they are like the sun and moon of the series. The second couple would be Creighton King and Annika Volkov. Well, for me it's like she falls first and she falls harder stigma as the girl in this book kept on chasing and disturbing the calm demeanor of the guy as he seemed kinda make her curious and want to know more about the guy. Dark as in dark in a way that he would go to such measures as kidnapping the girl and using her cousin in doing so without knowing the consequences of it. In the end, even though they're not a great pair they somewhat coexist only with each other. The third couple would be Jeremy Volkov and Cecily Knight. Oh I love this couple because I love Cecily Knight for being the nerd and the mother of the group and I love how easily she can be loved but not by Jeremy. Their first encounter is the same as Glyndon's as they joined the initiation of The Kings U but not for the same reason as Gly because Cecily went and joined the initiation for the reason to study the area. Trust issues arise mostly in this book as the push and pull also. All in all, I love this couple as much as I love Cecily. The fourth couple would be the Landon King and Mia Sokolov. Imagine being the ruthless leader of the sorority and then getting interested in a mute. well not literally a mute but she just stopped talking and just doing sign language ever since she was 9. Their story is unique because the girl is feisty and really loves revenge for their loved ones. The twist would be at the end of the story. And also imagine being a leader of an enemy turf yet you walk through the crowd of people and greet your girl in front of everyone and request a truce for the sake of his girl!!!! a total of one thousand thumbs up to you man! The fifth and my favorite couple and I re-reader for about seventh or eight, I guess the tenth time already as it is the first MM book that I read. I read BL manga most of the time but it's the first time I get hooked with these two. And also this is the first MM book of the author and it kinda excites me to know what she got for the first time. Nikolai Volkov and Brandon King were the surprise couple we never thought would emerge. I mean I do get some hints while reading the first four books of the series but when I read this one oh my freaking God it's so damn good. Brandon as you guessed goes to the initiation for the mere reason of keeping his twin (Landon King) safe from the REU turf and then comes the interaction with the worst and most ruthless member of the REU whom is Nikolai. Their interaction is really cute. I didn't know Nikolai had this cute side of him that he only showed to Brandon. Their interactions are really cute and the angst and slow burn are intense that's why I love them. What I love also about the couple is even though their relationship is unique they didn't stop themselves from being in love. I also love how accepting their parents are. This book is my favorite as it's also my first MM book. P.S.: This is also the reason I'm into reading MM books nowadays even doing audiobooks. The last couple would be Eli King and Ava Nash. Well, I don't like their story period. It feels kinda rush. And I know Ava has an illness but Eli doesn't have the right to torment her even more. Eli is Ava's childhood crush and their age gap hinders it as Eli looks at Ava as a kid and through the years it dawns on Ava that Eli will never love her the way she loves him. And then hatred comes but then they get married out of nowhere and then Ava gets abrupt amnesia and then her illness worsens and then Eli comes to help and then she remembers it all and then they end up happy together. Overall, I love the series I get to recommend this as one of my best aside from the others that I got. I will put it in later if I have time on my table. Till next time...

I've been unable to update as I am hooked on the current series I am following and when I'm immensely focused bout something I forget about other things...teheee Who am I kidding? I've been listening to audiobooks, reading manga, watching anime, and lastly working lol!! see how my priorities collapsing in an instant! well, that's me I guess. So last November 18-29, NBS or National Books Store held a book fair, and all the bookworms and those who love collecting books but not reading them (lol!) came to SM Seaside to avail of the sale. As a person who loves challenges went there on the last day of the fair since that's also our payday so we get to buy what we like on our limited budget with unlimited happiness. The joy of watching and reading the synopsis of the book for references and also smelling book pages really makes me feel full and contented. My original budget was to buy 4-5 books with a budget of 1,ooo pesos ($17.27) but what I got is a total of 9 books for 750 pesos ($12.95)...amazing right..i was also lucky to have my best buddy being supported with me in looking for book titles that fit my style of genre.. let me show you what I got and with their synopsis for your reference also...enjoy SECRET GARDEN - FRANCES HODGSON BURNET *"If you look the right way, you can see that the whole world is a garden."* When the orphaned 10-year-old Mary Lennox comes to live at her uncle's gloomy manor in Yorkshire, she is intrigued by its numerous locked rooms and secrets behind them. As she exploresMisselthaite Manor, Mary discovers the key to an almost-forgotten walled garden that has been locked away for years. She strikes a friendship with Dickon, a boy from the Moors who can seemingly talk to animals. With the help of her new friend and the old gardener, Mary attempts to revive the garden back to its former glory. But is there any hope for new life in the old garden? GENESIS BEGINS AGAIN - ALICIA D. WILLIAMS There are ninety-six reasons why thirteen-year-old Genesis dislikes herself. She knows the exact number because she keeps a list: - Because her family is always being put out of their house - Because her dad has a gambling problem - Because Genesis knows this is all her fault - Because she is too black Genesis is determined to fix her family, and she's willing to try anything to do so. But when she starts to find a thing or two she actually likes about herself, she discovers that changing her own attitude is the first step in helping change others. ALL YOU DESIRE - KIRSTEN MILLER Haven Moore has spent a blissful year in Rome with Ian Morrow, her love of countless lifetimes. She wants to believe they've escaped the sinister Ouroboros Society- and left its diabolical leader, Adam Rosier, an ocean away. But the mysterious disappearance of her best friend, Beau, forces Haven and Iain to return to New York and face the demons awaiting them from there. In Manhattan, Haven discovers she's being tailed by Horae, a centuries-old clan of mystics committed to destroying Adam Rosier and the Ouroboros Society. The Horae claim that the clues Haven needs to rescue Beau can be found in one of the past lives the two friends shared. They promise to help Haven remember what she needs to know, but their assistance comes at a high price. To save Beau, Haven must infiltrate the Ouroboros Society, charm Adam Rosier, and lure him into a trap the Horae have set. It's a plan the Horae believe will save the world- and one Haven and Iain fear may destroy the happiness they've been chasing for two thousand years. When Haven finds herself face-to-face with Adam Rosier, she quickly discovers that she may not be able to trust her heart. Let's stop with just the first three and continue on to the next article...hope you got some ideas based on the books and their synopses and are as excited as I am about reading them... Till then... Happy reading...

Just finished reading / listening to the Legacy of God series by Rina Kent and it made me wonder all the time everytime I finished a book is if there really is a mafia and as brutal as what I was reading maybe the world will be in chaos everyday. Reading and imagining them making havoc each and every day sends goosebumps down my spine. In the series, Mafia characters are hot but in real life I don't think it's a good one.. What's your current read?
@mommykim
Legacy of Gods Series will really kill me I guess.. Heyyyyyyyy...How are you guys? Been busy with my trainings at work and the drowsy observatory tests for 5 times a day that I can really say for my demise than my improvement 😵💫 Anyways, I am currently reading the first book of the Legacy of Gods by Rina Kent and blimey it is really insane. The characters and the brutal and them being all the red flags I can ever count on to many. But the excitement on finishing it really surprise me as I am not into thrills.. Well let's see..🎧🥹
@mommykim
Is it just me or it's just normal for readers to read sm*t scenes while eating like we don't feel anything and just read😮💨🥹 Like I'm literally readig Priest by Siera Simone and at Chapter 12 while cozily eating my dinner and slurping my juice while reading it like a normal reader with a stoic face would do Don't be 😅
@mommykim
They say love is blind but in books that on my TBR(to be read) list. Love is brutal and the more you input force the more you gain emotions. Is it true? Never felt that myself so I really can't tell. Is it time for me to change genre?
@mommykim
When you're with the right person at the right place and at the right moment... That seems to be only on books and movies I guess for what I was reading is just that, so surreal. I hope there would be a twist at the end to make the reading more exciting and my cup of coffee seems enthusiastic to be replenished What are your current reads?
@mommykim
Been busy for a couple of days as it's my Mother's birthday and also I've been on a couple of trainings at work that I need to focus my attention to. I only get to read like a couple of chapters on the book that I am currently reading and so far I get zero emotions as my tiredness overpowers my enthusiasm on the story. And I also am finishing the manga that I am reading as I am more hooked to that story than the book that I am reading..lol Anyways, I hope you are all having a blast on your rest day ... Enjoy it with family and friends and relieve those stress and tiredness away... keep safe!
@mommykim
Just got news now that my co workers were unemployed in an instant because their account is cut off as of this moment and the client didn't renewed their contracts because of trust issues. You know being in a BPO company for more than two years made me realize that even though you're hardworking, if the account will not work and won't renew then you will be jobless in an instant. It really saddened me for all of those employees especially now that Christmas is around the corner. 😭😭
@mommykim
Class suspension so I had all day to rest but instead I read and downloaded animes to binge watch for future purposes😅 Currently reading "Under One Roof" by Ali Hazelwood and really love the way she made this book. Ssuuuuuppppeeerrr intimately interesting🔥😍🤤 Keep safe guys and happy reading📚
@mommykim
Since I can't move on to the book I'm reading and still raging from it so I decided to read manga stories instead to unwind. And man why I am regretting not starting it earlier.. The fluffinies got me all tingles and it remind me on my junior school years where I don't have adult problems and just enjoying the ride with my friends. I kinda want to go back to those days though😮💨
@mommykim
I am in a cold war with the male character of the book I'm currently reading. Like how dare he hurt and messed with my lady's life and heart. And he had the audicity to smile like nothing happened knowing that missy is having a hard time fighting. I hope the author can feel my wrath right now😖😖😵💫
@mommykim
Been busy for the day as it's me niece's birthday and I need to handle everything from preparations to the celebration as her mother is out of the country working and I don't want to stress Mom on doing everything. And it's this time that the kids are exhausted from the fun that I get to rest also. Aiggoooooooo Being a mother/Tita/sister is really tough (tap on the back) you did well
@mommykim
"We all don't end up with the one we hope for." "Content is not love. It is our own version of it." I don't know why but these two sentences made me weep a bucket. Maybe because of my past or maybe the author has a knack of unloading my weaknesses in one swoop. 😭😭
@mommykim
They say love will make you a fool and you will be trapped with it blinded by affection. That made me agree while reading the 2nd book of the ravenhood series which is THE EXODUS as they all made a fool of the girl, all three of them.. Aigooo..that's why I'm afraid of losing myself when it comes to relationship
@mommykim
When youre utterly broken and you can't dven fixed it yourself. No one to console you because they think you're incapable of being broken and damage and hurt. They're thinking you're living the dream life oblivious to the hell path you're walking. Guess being pretentious is a daily motivation now.
@mommykim
They say being an introvert is a gift as you live in closed doors and don't like hanging out. It's fine as long as you don't have an extrovert of a friend who likes to get you out of the comforts of your room and do activities that would exhaust body mind and soul.. Reading this through the book and realize I feel the same makes me laugh to the bones😅
@mommykim
Currently reading FLOCK by Kate Stewart and surely this is made me blow my mind. They really made me blow my mind because of their set up and I just love how lucky could be if I were the girl in the book. Oh how to be loved by two men at the same time and they are really giving her undivided attention And is it really weird for the girl to fall in love with both of them because for me it's really natural as sipping my morning coffee..lol! But I am still on the first book of the series and I still have three on the way so I will have my final say after I read the final book of this series. Honestly, Stewart is really bold and lewd on her books and this one caught me off guard as I said because of the set up but it really is and exciting one. #Flock #RavenHood #KateStewart

Let me start with how are you all doing here. Doing good? Hang in there! Time flies and you'll never it's that time of the year again that you need to pamper yourself into indulgence. Now! For a start, let me introduce you to this one book I read as per my friend's recommendation. I am open to any genre aside from thrillers like killing mostly in all the episodes just like in Stephen King's book or so I say as I haven't gone much into exploring his books. This one got me intrigued as I am also a fan of red flag men being in the book only and not in real life. I also love men being a tier red flag but will be the kindest when it comes to their loved ones, especially their women. First off, Alex(the male lead) is a friend of Ava's (the female lead) older brother and he is very cold toward Ava which the latter doesn't know why. The turning point of the story is when Josh(Ava's Brother) is out on the outskirts of another town for a medical mission and he entrusts Ava to be in Alex's care he wants Alex to take care of Ava the same way Josh takes care of his little sister. Then came Alex became the residence in Josh's apartment which is next to Ava's and they constantly became neighbors Ava is very adamant about the man being Alex as he is a mystery she wants to unlock and explore. Much to her displeasure, Alex is a close-off man but he lets Ava into his house and presence which he questions himself why. Then the sleepover and more lead to them having feelings with each other. The twist comes when it reveals that Alex and Ava both have a very bad childhood life. Each bears the tragic incidents in each of their families and the reason why they are entangled with each other. Even I was shocked by the revelations, especially regarding Ava's father. I can't believe he did that to his kin. Well, I guess Chinese people do stick to their values when it comes to family virtue. What I love about this book is the transition of Alex from being the cold-blooded and super superior man he is he becoming soft when it concerns Ava. Talk about being called SUNSHINE will render me speechless if my man will ever call me that. The s*x scenes were also languid and it will make you recall your first time. Not that I regret mine but it would make it more hotter should it be the same as this book. Lead Image Link https://l.messenger.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fimages.app.goo.gl%2FaBFg4r1NzxCFEPct5&h=AT3E__erjqNImWVwjiZ4x7ZKddPcabatkd8qGWbrh2_2yDFK9HuDdytNUt7vhA_gu3cPOlHcfprk2o0oP3hraGEZ_MTQ919RJqwAdoRaHwVizZwn9qNu5bQzXNoisVsZtuuwRA When all was revealed my heart aches for both of them. The other one has to lie while the other one believes the lie as if no one is capable of receiving love and affection in reality. The most awaited part and the one that excites me and leaps me off my chair was when Alex took off a year from his work to pursue Ava to be together again for as long as it takes. Making sure Ava is safe even though he can only look at her from afar. And they love each other amidst the pain and when Ava gives in and forgives Alex that's when I cried the most while reading. I love Ava for being so strong and forgiving. I for one forgive but not too easily and I don't forget most of the time. I hold grudges way worse that's why I envy Ava. To sum it all up, love wins and forgiveness erupts in one way or another for the both of them and it is a one h*ll of a ride or die. If you want a soft copy of the book you can ping me on TG @jhennykim92 #BookREview #Book #AnaHuang #TwistedLove #TwistedSeries

1st book review coming all the way I've been thinking a lot these days(which is very rare of me..lol) and I thought I might make a debut on making my first ever book review not just on the clips and insights on it. I hope some will find it interesting especially on those bookworms like me who love reading reviews before actually reading the whole book. Stay Tune!!
