New Book Launch

Christmas is just around the corner, which means that the holiday season is in full swing. We should have more time to relax and unwind with a good book. Fortunately, Bookshelf PH has several titles launching in November and December that are sure to warm the bookworm in you.

Big Deal: An Anthology of Filipino Women's Stories and Art Volume I

1. Big Deal: An Anthology of Filipino Women's Stories and Art Volume I

This anthology takes its name from the phrase “it’s not a big deal,” which is often used dismissively when women speak up about harassment, discrimination, or other issues affecting them. Big Deal seeks to reclaim the phrase by showcasing stories and art that speak to the struggles of young Filipinas, particularly those who are Gen-Z or Millenials. Edited by Yanna and Katya, Big Deal is the first volume in what is surely to be an influential series for Filipina women everywhere.

Healthy Buhay, Happy Mama: Risa Hontiveros’s Journey Through Motherhood

3. Healthy Buhay, Happy Mama: Risa Hontiveros’ Journey Through Motherhood

Women’s literature is well-established abroad. You have titles like Lean In: Women, Work, and the Will to Lead by Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg or Becoming by former first lady Michelle Obama. But the genre is still growing in the Philippines, which means that there is not enough content to address the complexity that comes with being a Filipina in 2021 and beyond. This book from politician, journalist, and community organizer Risa Hontiveros provides Filipina women a roadmap to success across work-life balance, health and wellness, finances, and parenting during the new normal.
