From Viral Fame to Quiet Strength
from Ang Sarap Pala Magbasa · host Thessa Saavedra
They say a star is born every second. Each one is unique but only few shine forever. For my 2nd book review, I thought of featuring a star who became well loved not only because of her unique talent but because of her genuineness. Maine Mendoza rose to fame back in 2015 through a very popular app, called ‘DubSmash’ and this made her a hit, especially amongst GenZs. But behind the glitz and glamour, there’s a girl who also has her own flaws and is trying her best to navigate through a very complicated world. Tune in as I give my honest review of her book entitled, ‘Yup, I Am That Girl’ released back in 2017.
