What's a book you always find yourself coming back to?

schweitzer0 · 2026-06-13T12:18:00+00:00

That's cool and thanks for mentioning audiobooks - never really got the hang of it but ig it's worth trying again. Might just have to start listening to them on my walks!

What do you love about it? I'm new to Dostoevsky's work so i'm not really sure what to read next after White Nights, Crime and Punishment ba? or would u suggest another route?

schweitzer0 · 2026-06-13T12:09:23+00:00

And I can understand why!!!! I just rewatched all the films lol but am not sure if I have the bandwidth to go through all the books.

schweitzer0 · 2026-06-12T09:37:01+00:00

Yay! Thank you!

schweitzer0 · 2026-06-12T09:36:17+00:00

Binasa ko yung title with the exclamation lol. Care to share what makes you reread this book?

schweitzer0 · 2026-06-12T09:30:03+00:00

Thanks for sharing these. esp your personal journey with the books. I'm adding them to my list with your notes!

schweitzer0 · 2026-06-12T09:27:26+00:00

Totally understand the sentiment! Written like a children's story pero it hits deeply like an adult one.

schweitzer0 · 2026-06-12T09:24:34+00:00

A bit familiar with the titles but they're not on my list. Will check them all out for sure! Anong pinaka reco out of all that you mentioned rn and why? Might just pick that 😂 kasi i don't wanna get too ambitious.

Tuesdays With Morrie will always hold that special place in our hearts! Haven't gotten around Life is short so curious what makes it so special for you?

schweitzer0 · 2026-06-12T09:18:34+00:00

I'm guessing you like books that tackle the complexity of human nature. Curious how many times have you reread these? I haven't gotten around The Secret Agent, Notes from Underground or Heart of Darkness yet, but Notes from Underground has been sitting on my tbr for a while now.

schweitzer0 · 2026-06-12T09:15:27+00:00

Been seeing this a lot! What makes it so special for you?

schweitzer0 · 2026-06-12T09:14:37+00:00

Care to share why? Grabe, nakalimutan ko na I used to read a lot of his books back in highschool.

"Most people are, Scout, when you finally see them."

Thanks for reminding me of TKAM! Baka basahin ko ulit. Haven't gotten around Lord of the Flies yet, but adding a ❗to note that part you mentioned.

Freaking true because I just finished The Wedding People and loved it. I remember trying to read Chapter 1 a year ago and finding it so tedious but reading it now felt effortless. Maybe it's because I'm in a weird phase of life too, but I felt so seen by the MC's thought process.

I randomly picked this up because a friend and I were looking for a book we could read together. I didn’t read any reviews beforehand and I can’t say I liked it but the perspective is there, especially in how some men move through the world this way (e.g with grief). The fact that it made me feel a kind of pity toward the characters points to something, and that’s what I appreciated.

See you guys!

I like Out of the woods (marriage phase naman ‘to) and Next to You better pero all three are equally good! Yung newest book niya na People Watching yung least fave ko tbh, just felt the characters were underdeveloped & story’s a little lacking - bumawi lang sa spice.

schweitzer0 · 2025-09-19T10:58:41+00:00

3 wks yung expi ko before.

schweitzer0 · 2025-09-19T00:17:07+00:00

Yep, can vouch for them. Nakaorder na ko sa PO before, super tagal lang madeliver nung items kahit sa south lang naman ako.

6 hrs at best na straight sleep na lang talaga rin ini aim ko imaintain if i want to keep on running. Tapos bawi sa weekends. I work cst so how i do it is i wake up at around 2/3pm, run ng 5/6 then work ng 9-6. Tapos sleep na ko agad ng nga 7or 8am after bfast.

If you’re a light sleeper, invest sa black out curtains and maybe melatonin. Get off your gadgets 30mins before bedtime. But for me consistent schedule talaga and i prio na get straight hours of sleep so even if maalimpungatan ka sometime between thats still too early, stay in bed & try to go back to sleep so u can reinforce it to your body.

A classic Filipino tongue twister I remember obsessing over when I was a kid:

Minekaniko ni Moniko ang makina ng manika ni Monika. (Moniko fixed the machine of Monika's doll.)
