In this two-in-one book, Before I Do Anthology | Bros Before Hoes, Kath worked with 32 writers—from different backgrounds and beliefs—who shared their thoughts on relationships, dating, weddings and marriage. The new book is a collection of essays and anecdotes from real people about real experiences.

No fiction, no bullshit. Just real love lessons served on the rocks. It’s a must-read for every Filipino regardless of relationship and Facebook status.

REVIEWS

“Being the most pessimist person in the universe, I asked myself first if i can really write a single prose in english that is well – decent. Before sending a message to Kath, I assessed myself first. I asked my inner-self, numerous times if I can write under pressure since I only write poems in English. The moment Kath replied to me, I got nervous. She asked me if I can show her a sample work written in English so I redirect her on my Wattpad account where I usually store my English essays and poems that were written back when I was still in college. Fortunately, I passed her assessment. If someone will ask me how, I really don’t know but I feel blessed because of it.”
