Celebrating the centennial of his birth, the first-ever U.S. publication of Philippine writer Nick Joaquin's seminal works, with a foreword by PEN/Open Book Award-winner Gina Apostol A New York Times Book Review Editor's Choice Nick Joaquin is widely considered one of the greatest Filipino writers, but he has remained little-known outside his home country despite writing in English. Set amid the ruins of Manila devastated by World War II, his stories are steeped in the post-colonial anguish and hopes of his era and resonate with the ironic perspectives on colonial history of Gabriel Garc a M rquez and Mario Vargas Llosa. His work meditates on the questions and challenges of the Filipino individual's new freedom after a long history of colonialism, exploring folklore, centuries-old Catholic rites, the Spanish colonial past, magical realism, and baroque splendor and excess. This collection features his best-known story, "The Woman Who Had Two Navels," centered on Philippine emigrants living in Hong Kong and later expanded into a novel, the much-anthologized stories "May Day Eve" and "The Summer Solstice" and a canonic play, A Portrait of the Artist as Filipino. As Penguin Classics previously launched his countryman Jose Rizal to a wide audience, now Joaquin will find new readers with the first American collection of his work. Introduction and Suggestions for Further Reading by Vicente L. Rafael For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,700 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines.

I’ll buy it again.
Set name: Warheads Sour Green Apple
Ghost is very good. Especially comparing it to other energy drinks that literally tingle your whole body if you drink it too quickly. When I’m looking for energy drinks I really want more focus and mental energy over simple caffeine high and energy. This does give me both. In a good way. It has been very effective in what it says it does. Definitely value for the money over buying it at the gas stations one by one. Buying it in bulk definitely cuts the cost down. Energy levels peak very well without a crash at the end. The ingredients seems to be very good because my body doesn’t feel heavy afterwards.

Daily Drinker Warning: Great Energy, but Watch Your Teeth!
Set name: Orange Cream
No sugar which is great and this energy drink has become a staple but it is also very acidic so watch out if you have very thin teeth like me. I often find it increasing my sensitivity by a lot so a sensitivity toothpaste daily is essential for me since I drink these daily.
The feeling or energy from these is great, I have been drinking similar ones like G fuel for years and this gives me significantly more energy. A quick tip though is many dollar trees have Gfuel available so if you need sugar free energy drinks like me, they provide cheaper deals - currently dollar tree has G fuel for 1.25$ a can which is quite cost effective compared to Ghost.
Drinkability is mixed with Ghost, they are strong drinks. I often find G fuel being very refreshing and enjoyable while Ghost is very concentrated.
Comparison - Gfuel vs. Ghost ingredients and focus
Ghost:
Focus - Cognitive function, energy metabolism, and premium/transparent sourcing.
Caffeine - Natural from coffee beans
Nootropics - Alpha-GPC, NeuroFactor™ Coffee Fruit Extract.
Performance - Carnipure® L-Carnitine L-Tartrate, Taurine.
What makes it unique - AstraGin® (absorption enhancer), transparent proprietary blends.
Sweeteners - Sucralose, Acesulfame Potassium.
Gfuel:
Focus - support for focus and antioxidants.
Caffeine - synthetic
Nootropics - L-tyrosine and L-theanine
Performance - Taurine, L-citrulline malate
What makes it unique - Extensive Antioxidant Complex, high dose of Vitamins C, E, and B-vitamins.
Sweeteners - Sucralose, Acesulfame Potassium.
The bottom line here: G Fuel for maximum boost and vitamins; Ghost for premium, clean, and focused energy. Ghost is mostly proprietary blends of vitamins which is something to keep in mind since we do not know what is in them while G fuel is more transparent for the most part. I recommend trying both and seeing what works best for you.

Best Blue Raspberry energy drink out there!!
Set name: Blue Raspberry
I've tried multiple different brands of energy drinks that have blue raspberry as a flavor. My absolute favorite was the C4 Jolly Rancher Blue Raspberry energy drink..... UNTIL I tried this one. Beats it for sure. It has such a sweet, smooth and refreshing taste and gives a solid boost to power me through my day. The price is a little high but in all honesty it's worth the money! No crash or jitters after one of these and this is coming from someone who drinks lots of caffeine every day. TL;DR absolutely worth a try!!

Great flavor and solid energy boost
Set name: Cherry Limeade
By far my favorite flavor in any energy drink. GHOST really does this one well and the Cherry Limeade tastes great compared to a lot of other energy drinks I’ve tried.
Yes, it is high in caffeine, but that’s actually what I need sometimes for a real energy boost, and this one does the job without feeling overly heavy. The calorie content is also great if you’re someone who watches calories, which I appreciate.
Overall, great flavor, solid energy, and one of my go-to energy drinks.
