Hello! My name is Archie, a 30-ish reader, writer, and a law student in Manila, Philippines. I created BookMania! in August of 2010 as a blog which mainly featured literary quotes, but later on, an idea came out when I thought of transforming it not only into an inspirational cubbyhole, but also as a catalogue of the books that I read, literary excerpts, awesome places I’d love to visit, writers I adore, and all sorts of cool book stuff.
BookMania! is one of the most widely-followed book blogs on Tumblr. It is the first and the only book blog from the Philippines (and even from Asia) which was included on Tumblr Spotlight. It was also featured on the Tumblr Radar, Booooooom!, Book Riot, and was included in the book named “Bookshops” By Jorge Carrión. It also did successful collaborations with several publishers like Penguin Books and Platypus Press.
