Well that was a cliffhanger. What happened to Carolina and Rey though? So far this book has shown me what Philippines, the unacknowledged colonial project of America, is like. We've been through dark streets, call center mishaps, taxi cabs, late nights, and so many ironic sexual encounters between races. What else is left in the last 25% of the book?

Reading this slowly, but it's alright. This book is really devastating, as Gina Apostol said. The postcolonial brood is dark but nevertheless, well-written.
