Cariño Brutal. Sad……. at least Vanessa’s characterization is of a real person. The least a story could do before doing…..all that…..

Trese: Thirteen Stations. So good! Jessica Hagerdon called this one the anthology’s ‘centerpiece’, and rightfully so. Budjette Tan’s understanding of Manila’s grime gets to the real center of this city’s gristly dog-eat-dog condition

After Midnighr. Despite how I usually feel about this writer, his story rises above the stories that came before him. And his story still wasnt that great, it was just that it actually had some finesse, and the story was obvious, but that THE most obvious thing possible.
