I had just committed myself to decluttering my living space according to Marie Kondo's principle of keeping only the things that spark joy for you. Just as I had either discarded or sold more than half of all my belongings, Big Bad Wolf, the biggest international book sale, had come to the Philippines. And being the bookworm/book-hoarder that I am, that only means one thing: new books are coming into my living space once again.
