ang paboritong libro ni hudas by bob ong

He has this knack of highlighting simple things, acts and attitudes which a typical normal Filipno would not normally take notice, but which has a great impact to the whole society, brought about by his keen observation about the Philippines and its people. His books also does not shy away from societal and political commentaries targeting the inefficiency of the government and the inability of us Filipinos to make a stand and act on certain issues. He is a common Filipino who experiences common Filipino problems like traffic, pollution, problems in public transportations, red tapes in government agencies and one who experiences social media fatigue and I believe that’s the reason why Filipinos enjoy his books because it became relatable to them. His books mirrors reality, a reflection how a typical Filipino lives and adapts. The subjects in his books mostly cover slice of life of a typical Filipino. Despite his anonymity, his books sells like hotcakes and whenever a new book of him comes out, its always on every bestseller’s lists. He’s been writing for over a decade now and it’s still a mystery as to who he really is and he’s identity is still clouded with anonymity. This book has more stuff that what I expected it to be.īob Ong is a pseudonym of a yet to be identified Filipino writer. Still aimlessly resolving an internal conflict as to what needs to be discussed first. I’m still confused how and what will I tackle first. And so here I am, days after I finished this book and I still don’t know where to start.

So where will I start? Prior to finishing this book, I said to myself that this is the type of book that had to be immediately reviewed after finishing it but after I finished it, I realized that I have a lot of things to say about this book and I should probably take a day off and reflect first before finally start typing on my laptop. “Mas mabuti na ang librong maraming gustong sabihin kumpara sa librong walang sinasabi.” – Bob Ong, 56
