Author Sheilah Jane is set to release her debut memoir, Shadows and Sunrises, on October 15, in time for Filipino American History Month. The book explores themes of resilience, identity, and belonging across borders, weaving together stories that highlight the Filipino American experience.
Part personal journey, part reflection on cultural history, Shadows and Sunrises invites readers into moments of both struggle and triumph—narratives that resonate with many in the diaspora seeking connection and understanding.
