If you missed Mika Salamanca’s magical moment at the Manila International Book Fair (MIBF) last week, here’s your chance to catch it again. The “Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab Edition” Big Winner is set to hold another special book reading session for her debut book Lipad! this September 22, 1 p.m. at SM North EDSA The Annex Atrium.
In a heartfelt post, Book Nook—a community library and learning hub by SM Malls—shared the exciting news:
“Guess who’s dropping by the Book Nook at SM North EDSA for a chill book reading sesh? Mika Salamanca – singer, actress, PBB Celebrity Collab winner, and now a published author – is coming through!”
Mika officially launched Lipad! at the MIBF 2025, where she read to a packed crowd of fans, signed books, and greeted supporters who have followed her journey since her PBB days.
The book tells the enchanting story of Mahika, a young diwata who struggles with insecurity because her wings look different from everyone else’s. Mika revealed that Mahika’s journey was inspired by her own—making the story even more personal and powerful.
From being one of 20 housemates inside the famous Pinoy Big Brother house to emerging as the Big Winner with Brent Manalo, Mika has shown resilience and heart. Now, through Lipad!, she’s ready to inspire readers, especially young dreamers, to embrace their uniqueness and soar.
Mark your calendars—because on September 22, Mika Salamanca isn’t just reading a book. She’s sharing a piece of herself with her fans.
