I wanted to like this book. I just couldn't get over the rambling sentences and because a lot of it was written in Tagalong or Waray, I didn't always know what was being said. I would get the general gist of what was going on, but it was just like a random stream of consciousness. In the end, I just couldn't finish it.

I have mixed feelings about this book. It was a interesting, in fact very interesting, view of the Philippines - the history and people. I enjoyed that part. But I found the structure difficult.
