I'm back at writing reviews !!
3.5 stars/5 stars
The story has a predictable plot, yes. But I still enjoyed it because of the characters (Yes, I am character driven.) Even though this is not my first time reading this book, the reading experience was still fun. (expect for the miscommunication part)
✧.*ROMANCE: 80%
Without spoiling, I can say that it's somehow okay. If you're a fan of fast burn, fast-paced romance books, then this is the book for you.
✧.*WRITING:86%
I love how the author put actual universities instead of made-up ones. It actually helped me decide on what college I'd like to attend in the future. The writing style is fine. It's easy to understand if you speak Filipino and English.
Final thoughts:
I suggest you guys not to read the comments on Wattpad if you hate spoilers because "#rr" people are annoying af. They keep on spoiling and it'll ruin the experience for new readers.

When I first read this last 2021, I honestly loved this book. I got so addicted to the point I also want a law student guy in my life lol. But after rereading it this 2022, I just realized how plain and boring the storyline is.
1. 10 years after is so long, and Lukal’s relationship isn’t that deep. Kasi if sa totoong buhay ‘to, matic they will both find someone better.
2. Some of the jokes are so cringe and corny argh
3. Medyo cringe din sila ni sevi (i’m sorry huhu)
4. There is no plot twist (I think yung cheating na yun and yung breakup nila lol)
5. She is so dense? ? LIKE LORD

Changed my rating from 3.5 stars to 1 because the author is, apparently, problematic and I don't support her anymore.

I don't really read Filipino Wattpad Stories, but I really enjoyed reading this one.

I actually love the story! Hindi mahirap mahalin ang mga characters especially si Luna and Kalix.
It somehow reminded me of life back in college. Iyong cramming sa school works, in between gala with friends, pag landi sa mga crush, etc. Haha! Kahit may pagka cliche ang story, nakaka-enjoy pa rin basahin. Lalo na iyong mga dialogue ni Luna and her friends. Biglang ko tuloy mga naging ka-close ko nung college ako.
5 star read sana 'to kaso medyo all over the place ang writing style nung author. Lalo na iyong sa epilogue. Tsaka I don't think lahat makaka-relate sa mga characters dito. Sa personality siguro, yes. Pero sa lifestyle, I doubt.

I found it very predictable. The story is like every wattpad quirky girl and serious boy. Although I still liked their relationship.
Rereading this goes to the list of my top worst decisions of my life. I wanted a light and feel-good wattpad story because I miss reading those, but I felt angrier than feeling wholesome and fluffy.
The story revolves around Kalix and Luna, and how slowly they lose themselves and their dreams as they face odds in their relationship.
Now, what do I like about this book?
- It is fast-paced and easy to read and digest.
- It doesn’t require that much brain capacity to understand the themes and plot because it is straightforward.
THAT’S IT??? YOU’RE SO PICKY AND HATEFUL! Yes, it’s a shitty story, that’s why. Now here are the reasons I despise this story:
- I have read books with quirky characters and I tolerated most of them, loved some even, but Luna makes me want to pull her hair.
- Kalix is animated, bland, and one-dimensional. It’s as if the author made a wheel filled with endearing characteristics, spun it, and based his personality traits on the results. This man is the embodiment of lazy characterization.
- The dialogues, lord, save me. The jokes were cringe-worthy at best. I just want Luna to shut up, she is so irritating. Kalix places second in being irritating, and it’s a good thing that he doesn’t speak much because when he does, I just want to end my life.
- Also, the law terminologies are so out of place yet the author constantly include them in dialogues? I only know one Law student personally, but I have never heard him use these terminologies in daily conversations. Kalix is so pretentious, I hate him so much.
“Paano kapag hindi kita sinagot?”
“You have a choice. I will not deprive you of your liberty.”
Dude, you’re asked a normal question. Answer like a normal human being.
When asked about his type, he says:
“Just someone nice, someone who can respect my time, and someone who won’t deprive me of my life, liberty, and property without due process”
If a man ever replies this to me, I’ll run the other way.
Luna then proceeds to ask kung ilan ang naging kalandian niya, and this mofo replies:
“I have the right to remain silent.”
Fuck, yes, please remain silent for the entirety of the story.
- Now the narration. The narration is meh. It shows that she wrote twitter seryes because her narration feels a lot like that. I also hated how there are a lot of unnecessary details that do not affect the plot. It speaks a lot about her writing skills.
- I mentioned that I love how I didn’t need that much brain capacity in reading this story since this is pretty straightforward, but I’ll also mention how much I hate it, too. It was straightforward to the point that the author dictates how the readers should feel. For instance, there was a scene where Luna narrates how her ex-boyfriend was too controlling. Instead of allowing readers to formulate their own opinion regarding this matter, the author already dictated how the readers should feel through this conversation. This, I noticed, was prevalent in most of her stories. I love a straightforward narration, but if it doesn’t allow discussions and differing opinions, I think it will reflect poorly on the author. A good story engages the readers, makes them think, and reflect on the themes. This story spoon-fed its readers, instead.
- The characters acted like teenagers even after a ten-year time skip. Look, I understand that there are people who act differently than their age, but the characters did not mature nor develop even when the author said that they did.
- I realized, as I reread this, why I quit reading wattpad stories. There is a recurring theme in these stories: vilifying women and pitting them against other women. The same is true in this story. There must be a woman who tries to tear the two main characters apart for the sake of plot and character development. It’s cliché and redundant.
- Plot-wise, it adds nothing new to the genre. It’s boring and repetitive.
Overall, I hate this story. I do understand the hype, though, and why it’s mainstream.

re-reading this in 2022 brought back so many memories for me, and I loved every minute of it. In comparison to other works I've read, the plot seemed bland. this story is realistic in my opinion because it was inspired by the author's personal experience, hence why I think why it inflicted so much emotion to the readers (like me). although, the plot didnt have so much stuff going on, i think Gwy focused more on the story being realistic than putting so much plot into it. nevertheless i still enjoyed it bcz its been a while since ive read off from wattpad
