Trese 4 Book Launch

Book Launch - Robinsons Galleria, Bestsellers Book Store

I'm not really a follower of graphic novels or Pinoy Lit but when I attended the book launch of Trese 4: Last Seen After Midnight at Bestsellers, Robinsons Galleria yesterday I was really surprised at the overwhelming response!  It was by far the most attended of the last 3-4 book launches I've attended! :-)  Congratulations to author Budjette Tan and artist Kajo Baldisimo, the masterminds behind Trese!

This post is meant to share the photos with those who wanted to attend but were not able to, or with anyone interested.

Btw, for those who don't know yet, Trese 4 is a series of graphic novels starring Alexandra Trese, a young girl detective whose cases always take a turn for the bizarre and the supernatural.  

The anticipating audience
Jiggy Cruz, fellow blogger and friend of the author, is the host for the event.
