A powerful Filipino American family saga spanning four generations — now in paperback.
From acclaimed author Randy Ribay, Everything We Never Had weaves a deeply moving narrative of identity, masculinity, and generational trauma through the lens of Filipino American history.
Set across four time periods — Watsonville (1930), Stockton (1965), Denver (1983), and Philadelphia (2020) — this award-winning novel follows the lives of the Maghabol family’s fathers and sons. Each era brings new challenges: racism, assimilation, mental health, and inherited silence. But at the heart of it all is a yearning to understand one another, to connect across time, and to heal.
Perfect for readers 12 and up, this coming-of-age novel is ideal for fans of intergenerational narratives, multicultural fiction, and those exploring Filipino identity in America. A must-read for educators, teens, and families alike.

Great story,quick read and very relevant
Nice fit, good for Summer. Would buy again.
Beautifully illustrated. I am looking forward to absorbing this work over the next several days. Always satisfied with every purchase from Hot Tropiks.
I LOVE the supot bag so much that I bought multiple for my family as well. They all got a kick out of it! Fingers crossed this is gonna help them stop using single use bags!
Arrived fast and in perfect condition! Wonderful illustrations
Great product!
Reading it as an adult versus when I was in high school, resonates so much more. It still pertains to what’s is going on today. The toxicity started by Spain and it’s friars still permeates.
Fantastic items and order fulfillment! Thank you so much!
Love Hot Tropiks!!
Beautiful illustrations, something that I'll reread multiple times. Josefina deserves a spot in my personal library.
Started reading it immediately. Love the illustrations. The research and love for the work produced is obvious. Grateful for this gem.
