Book Review #1: Stupid is Forever

Book Cover

     Before I begin the review, I wanted to give a background about Miriam Defensor-Santiago. She’s a senator known for her strong and fierce personality front of the camera. She’s not afraid of voicing her opinions regarding politics, corruption, and her enemies. Despite that, she does show her soft, witty, and funny side through pick-up lines at some of her privilege speeches. This is one of the reasons why most Filipinos loved her.

     Stupid is Forever was released on December 2014, just in time for Christmas. There was so much demand for the book that it was always sold out as most people treat this book as their Christmas gift (Well, I did treat it as a Christmas gift. How about you?)

     This small book is basically a compilation of her pick-up lines, famous sayings, and excerpts of her speeches. There are also good illustrations throughout the book.

     The book also cover a wide range of topics. First part is mainly politics. This is where Miriam expresses her opinions about Philippine politics and its problems and her fellow politicians. It also contains some of her pick-up lines. Lastly, it covers her personal life. There are also more content in the book but I don’t want to spoil everything.

     Overall, this is a great book because you’ll learn interesting things that you might not be aware of and have a good time laughing at some of her lines and sayings.

     I will be reviewing the sequel to this book on the next post. So watch out for it.

     In the meantime, I’ll see you guys later!
