Tagalog itong libro kaya tagalog din ang review. Hahaahha. Pero pwede din siguro mag English. Edi ayun na nga. Hindi ako gaanong natuwa. Parang pilit e. Parang halo halong opinyon. Parang nag kape kape kayo o shumat magttropa syempre kwentuhan. Tapos yung kwentuhan na yon, ito na ang kinalabasan.
Parang hindi din witty. Bob Ong daw? Peri hindi e, ang layo.
Tapos predictable. Ayun na yun e. Pinaligoy ligoy pa. Alam mo na yung ending pero kung saan saan ka pa dinaan, buti kung hindi obvious na yun na pala yun. E wala.
Tapos Ricky Lee daw?? Lalong mas malayo.
Sayang. Promising pa naman, para sa broken hearted. Ako yata yung na brokenhearted. Sayang to. Akala ko maganda. Mejo lang pala. Meh
It was a long way but I made it! Glad to have finally finished this although very long overdue. I liked the book. All I can say about this and to everyone is that, Everybody has a choice. We should all respect what ever one decides on.
Tindi nitong librong to kasi habang at matapos ko itong basahin, parang gusto ko nang beer. Ang inam kasi mula sa history, philosophies at mga ideya o mga chismis tungkol sa alak, ang dami kong napulot na mga bagay bagay, totoo na hindi ko naman kakailanganin ito sa malapit na kinabukasan, makakatuwa na nalaman ko ang mga ito. Galing. Mayroon pang mga simpleng tips para sa mga susunod ka inuman, gayon din para sa aftermath o ang hangober. Ang saya. Naaliw ako dito.
Ps.
Itong si Lourd de Veyra ay nakilala ko sa Radio Active Sago Project, bukod don, wala na, nung lumabas siya sa mga news segments sa TV5, nakita ko nanaman siya at gusto pala siya ni Ronald. Sinundan ko na siya dahil nabasa ko ang isang article niya sa spot.ph tungkol kay Gabriel Garcia Marquez, kasabay nang pagluluksa ko sa pagkawala niya sa mundong ibabaw. Dalawa na kaming malungkot. Mahabang istorya pa, baka hindi mo din magets, pero mula noon, gusto ko na din siya.
If I was maybe a little younger when I've read this. The rating might be a bit higher. But I'm not. So maybe not.
I cannot believe myself. Cannot believe how much I liked Ignite Me. I was on hate track with Shatter Me.
I hated it. I hated Juliette being whiny and all. I felt her weakness, like how she wants to give up and all.
And I don't like stories like that.
But then - Unravel Me. Yes. Almost.
And then.
Ignite, love. Ignite.
I was loosing my mind I tell ya! All the feels. All the words. Everything that was happening was dark and gloomy.
And wonderful at the same time. The words were so powerful I felt amazing, I felt empowered.
Felt that, yes. This is happening. We can do this. We can fight this.
Waaaaa.
Since the start I was with Warner, I don't know. He was someone I would fall for. His villainy is was so attracting I would join him at any war. :3 ihh. Favorite Friend.
And Kenji. I'm glad and happy there was a Kenji in this book. Really loved his charter. His like a breath of fresh air. Juliette is very lucky to have him.
Winston and Brendan's duo is also nice. :)
And Adam, you douche bag. Ugh.
The days on the training room was kinda meh. Like, yes they were training and all. ( I understand that Warner is the Commander, but) No one really noticed at all that they were there? I little more conflict (aside for the love triangle. I want to kick Adam's ass so bad I was hurting myself kicking the wall instead. I want to murder him.) would have been a bit nicer. But I am not complaining.
In the end, the reason why I really liked it is (aside from Warner) is that Juliette finally was able to be herself and deciding to fight. Kill.
There are lots of books hesitating with killing, morals and shit, I know it's not about it. But yes. That's why I like this book. Kill that be killed.
:)
I came here for the artwork, stayed for the yaoi, completed because of the plot. It was fun and interesting to read, but nothing in the manhwa should be tolerated and lived.
Ganda ng art style pero anyare? Ang comedy nito, sayang hindi pa naman sana cliche hahaha takte
I'm tired of looking at this book thinking if I would ever get back to this, but really, I won't. It's all boring and half the time I don't know what's going on. It's a weird mix of so many things.
Okay. I needed a cute spicy romance because my recent reads were dry. Lol. This was okay, the guy was a stupid asshole but maybe redeemable so let's give this 4 starts.
The element of academia in dark academia is my ultimate reason for reading these kinds of books. I love it when it's the core of the plot. I've had my eye on this for a long time and I'm happy to report that I loved everything.
Brb I'm going to dive into the rabbit hole of searching for something similar to this
2.5 stars.
The smut was cringe huhuhu. I listened to the audiobook that I couldn't just close the book and roll me eyes. This started strong for me, I like the MA setting and the range was okay, but in the end, Aiden has so much to work on, and I don't think I can forgive that easy like how Rosie did.
And girl, in this economy, just accept it when a guy is so willingly desperate to pay for your food.
Full-on honest review here. I read this book because I saw A Discovery of Witches and I need more imagery and action from Matthew Goode and Theresa Palmer, I did love their interactions and the sceneries in Oxford among others.
We can talk all day on how beautiful this book is, I have never read anything like it. The way colleges were described, it was as if I am walking the streets of the university, I was obsessed with it that fuck it if only I can go back and study history and all that.
What I didn't like about this book is that it was overly descriptive, I mean, I didn't have to know what the hell everyone had for breakfast you know. What is up with all the grand details of all things? I think the whole book was composed of unnecessary adjectives of whatnots. It was a drag to read this book, apart from the action that I enjoyed, why the hell bother with what cardigan is one wearing? I didn't need that.
While the book gave me all I wanted when it comes to the fight scenes, love interests, some sexual tension, and family drama, it would have been better for me it the tiny details of what color of pajamas anyone was wearing.
It's clear to me that I will read the next book but it will take a while because too much information on what colors of hair strands is not on my list right now.
After what happened to Teddy and all of the memories of him. :( Shit. Ugh. FEELS!!!
It was a lonely novel at the same time a beautiful one. Sumire's character was interesting. She's like a pile of mess at the beginning at at the end, tried to settle in the middle part but I believe ended just the same. With mismatched socks and all. I really like her character because despite being hard headed, she wants to make things happen, not with her unfinished novels obviously but when she met Miu, everything changed. I guess that happens when you suddenly fall in love. Everything goes into place like there is now a path to take and a direction to follow. I hope she continued to be that way.
With Miu, I wanted to know what happened to her but aside from what she told Sumire, there's nothing more. I understand that her character has to remain mysterious, but still I would have really liked to know more on what happened to her.
And K. which is a teacher, of all the profession Haruki Murakami could think of, of course he is a teacher. I feel that his character expressed most of what the other two wanted to say. Sumire has scattered thoughts while Miu I believe cannot express herself, so he was like the interpreter. The narrator so to speak.
All in all I love this novel, reading a setting in Japan is a refresher. I hope to read more of Haruki Murakami's works.
At the beginning I hoped all Grandfather Portman's stories were true. And it is and I am glad I was able to meet these wonderful peculiar children. I have read a lot of reviews saying that this is somehow like Xmen. No. It's completely different and indeed is peculiar. This is just the story I needed, it's like a refresher of my childhood reading. I love this. I like how the story goes and that it is new. Kind of sad at the end. Peculiar. But I mean it as a compliment. Good job Ransom Riggs.
It's so beautiful I didn't want it to end.
From the first page it has already made an impression and I am anxious to continue although the situation does not permit when you are in transit and always moving.
But the circus arrives without notice and now that I had the time it deserves, I should say, it was a good thing it was prolonged so that I could savor every word. It was the most luminescent thing that I have experienced in a long time.
I first learned about Marie Lu because of The Young Elites. I loved it so much that it took me a while to start Legend as I do not want to spoil my love for her. I guess I was wrong because I think I am in love with her more. She writes so beautifully and convincingly I feel that every page is a masterpiece. She made everything about Legend feel so true that when I was done, I was eager to get my hands on Prodigy which I am now starting. I usually do not write reviews after I read a book, it takes me time and effort to review and think how many stars it deserves— but for Legend, there's no asking or second thoughts. It deserves more than the 5 stars goodreads allows you to give. The writing is perfect. The characters are well thought of, well established and undeniably likeable despite the good or the bad. Everything about Legend is what every reader wants in a book. A true full on experience of a new world.
This book is soooo long that it can last you until the next release. I want more Aaric in book 3. He wouldn't be in this series for nothing, right? I feel like he's here only 10 pages combined. Why was he even introduced so early??
I got this book for my birthday last year from Skab my labs, and I cannot tell you how much patience was needed for me to not open the damn plastic wrap.
I have had this on my to read list ever since my uncle recommended this to me saying, “Sobrang ganda niya.”. Simple as that you when he describes a book like that, I would always expect it to be wonderful. He had suggested many fiction books that I liked and he is also the reason I am into reading, too much reading. And so when we saw this on Bookay Ukay that August, I cannot get it off my hands, and so Skab my labs got it for me. And that was the one of the best gifts he has given.
Enough of that and more of the book, because that's what you came here for, right.
I am telling you this one is worth all those wait! By the end of 2014, I was looking for a book that has a chef as a hero/heroin and this came nothing close to just a chef's story. It's just perfect! Tita is one amazing cook, it has details of all ingredients needed and how it is cooked, along with it comes the story of Tita's love, lost, sorrow and triumphs.
Characters were also stunningly alluring. Mama Elena sure kept the first half of the book entertaining, not that I like how she treats Tita but her treatment to her was compelling. And even after what happened to her. Just the thought of her made everyone fear her altogether!
Gertrudis was also one to like, the bad ass sister who did whatever the fuck she want and didn't care a bit of whatever fuck everyone would think of her. Rosaura was tolerable, but Pedro, you asshole, he really was, a few chapters in. An asshole, yes, but Tita really loved him and I get that part which was cool because the ending made it all just perfect.
And that ending! I freaking cried the the last fucking paragraph! As in, I enjoyed the book so much, I didn't want it to end! I didn't want to finish it actually, I didn't want to know what the ending was because I know I will never be over it! I mean the whole book was nourishing and enticing and you will get soaked up to it and and you feel that you're part of the world Laura Esquivel has made and you don't want to end it.
All in all it's like you wish the book didn't end because it's so beautiful you want to read it again. That's how amazing it is.

There are human beings who just don't want other people and thinks of them dead without remorse or joy or any feeling at all. It is possible to hate people with no basis, or there could be one but enough to wish another dead. The tragedy of the Blackwood is not even a tragedy for Mericat. It's just another walk through town like any other day. The take away from this short story is that there are people who don't give a shit and just want to continue with their lives. One does not have to have to many of a companion, and in this case. One sister is enough.
Cute fun read. I liked Beth and Jennifer's emails.
Beth deserved that happy ending. I liked Chris' own idea of a happy ending too. It's practical but you know. Some girls are different from others. On this scenario, Beth really deserved it. I am glad all went well.
Rainbow Rowell you mad story teller. You like making people be at their wit's end. Good job on that.
