Bookfair 2009

[rainbowunicorn_reads]

Books by Jeanette Winterson - that's natural lighting! ♥ Anybody out there who wants to sell us their copy of Sexing the Cherry, The Passion and the Powerbook? :)

then off to the 30th Manila International Book Fair at SMX with my folks. My folks and I have been doing this for as long as I can remember. When I was younger, I remember getting lots of free zines and magazines when I was younger. I think I still have them now, my first introduction to zines. I went a bit crazy with the postcards though. :):


Spotted: Pilandok over at the Adarna booth, waiting for fans.


Pilandok with fangirl


Posing inside Rex Book Store's awesome school bus.


You're looking pretty thin today. I'll love you till death do us part.


Art exhibit featuring art works from local children's storybooks over at Lampara's booth.


Art from Lampara's Alamat ng Mansanas (Legend of the Apple) Who did this again? I am a HUGE fan of your art. :)


Wicked costumes at the Cosplay exhibit area.



Finds of the day:


Postcards at Bookmark. 14th century ceramics. I love the patterns.


Various books at the Book Fair - Kikomachine 4 and 5 came with free Zsazsa Zaturnnah posters! Finally, our own copy of Conchitina's Dark Hours! The people at UP Press agreeing to sell something originally worth P230 for just P100! Go bargaining and sweettalking! :) I wasn't quite expecting them to agree, I just blurted the first price that came to my mind (which was Php100) and they miraculously agreed! Oh the joy! It's a good day. :)


Watched Kimmy/Dora after lunch and did some Booksale-ing. Found A.M. Homes, Music for Torching (P50php), Best 1996 American erotica, and one of my faves-- bitch mag ♥
