Recs if you like America Is in the Heart: A Personal History...

Authors from the Philippines & diaspora no specific genres; it’s like a Pinoy library on shuffle lol

I haven’t read every book on this list, but I have finished most of the titles towards the bottom. Recommendations always welcome! Maraming salamat, mga kapwa 🤎

Yearning for Pinoy representation? Try these reading this mix of fiction and non-fiction. Learn Filipino history, solve mysteries with Filipino characters, fight fantasy wars inspired by Filipino mythology, and experience plots that make you go, “Oh! My parent has definitely said that to me!” I have also included authors that have written books that don’t necessarily have explicitly stated Filipino characters, but they are Filipino themselves in real life.

Literature on Asian migration, settlement, and diaspora in the Americas.
