The Filipino Book Bloggers is holding the first ever Filipino Readers’ Choice Awards this coming August to “develop awareness and appreciation of Philippine literature; recognize the reader’s role in creating the meaning and experience of a literary work; and give the readers a voice in the Philippine book industry.”
