THE HALO-HALO REVIEW'S MANGOZINE--ISSUE 17

THE HALO-HALO REVIEW presents The Mangozine which features new reviews and serves as the online publisher for reviews and other engagements (e.g. book introductions) published in print but not yet available within the internet.  Other features, including author interviews and reader testimonials, also will be presented. The following presents a Table of Contents for Issue 17 -- CLICK on links to go to the reviews.


Submission deadline for the 18th issue has been set at Nov. 15, 2024 (though we will take reviews sooner than the deadline if that is more convenient for the reviewers).

ISSUE 17
(April  2024)

Editor's Note:  Welcome to the 17th issue of THE HALO-HALO REVIEW where we provide engagements with Filipino-Pilipinz literature and art and authors/artists through reviews and engagements, interviews and other prose. We hope readers, writers, artists, and publishers will continue to participate and share information about numerous Filipino authors and the wide variety of their writings.
