My day wouldn’t be complete without reading. I’ve been collecting books and eBooks for some time now and it was a pleasant surprise to discover a Filipino eBook app called Buqo.
Buqo is an all in one digital bookstore, newsstand and reader app. It carries a wide selection of Filipino reads that caters to various interests. Whether you’re into romance, fiction, teen literature or motivational materials, Buqo has the perfect offering suited for you. Its catalog is also brimming with specialty titles sure to whet your appetite—from travel, food and leisure to cars, fitness and entertainment.
Buqo has over 500 books and magazines and counting, with familiar names such as Pol Medina’s Pugad Baboy, Bo Sanchez’s Shepherd’s Voice, Precious Hearts Romances, Summit Media, and Adarna Children’s Books, already in the fold.
For magazines, men can have access to popular titles such as FHM Philippines, Entrepreneur, Top Gear, and HWM and Esquire Philippines. Women get to enjoy their favorites like YES!, Cosmopolitan Philippines, Preview, Good Housekeeping and Smart Parenting.
I’ve been an e-reader fan for some time now. Currently, I have a Kobo Glo that I use which was a gift from my boss. The convenience and space saver that an e-reader gives to book lovers like me is unbelievable. I can store thousands of eBooks and eMags and access it any time, any where.
It’s easy to use and navigate. The other great thing about Buqo is that you can access your entire library on all your devices—whether iOS or Android—with just one account. All you need to do is create an account and you can enjoy reading on up to 7 of your devices.
It’s payment options are very convenient for people like me whodon’t have a credit card. You are given a choice of paying via online banking or over the counter. Prices are in Philippine Peso which makes it easier to check if we can buy it!
So far, I have tried reading the Candy Magazine Special: DIY Book and Smart Parenting: 150 More Fun & Creative Activities for Kids. Reading has been quite easy. You just need to wait for the ebook or eMag to load.

Yummy
I haven’t used this app. This is very convenient for busy people like me. 🙂
I’m thinking of getting a Kobo myself! Nothing will compare to my love for physical books, but sometimes you have to be a little practical. I was considering getting an iPad mini, but I already have an iPhone and they’re kind of similar anyway.
