Rating: 4.5

Nagdadalawang isip ako noong sinimulan ko ito dahil hindi ko na-enjoy ang karakter ni Yanna sa unang libro dahil sa kanyang mga kilos at salita.

Ang pumipigil sa akin na hindi ituloy ito ay si Hiro dahil gusto kong malaman kung paano niya haharapin ang isang tulad ni Yanna. Ako ay natuwa dahil tinatrato niya siya nang may paggalang sa kabila ng unang impresyon ng pagiging-straightforward sa kanyang kahalayan. Sinusubukan ko sa aking makakaya na magbasa ng mga libro na walang masyadong sekswal na nilalaman (Nilaktawan ko ang mga iyon kapag sobra na 😅 it's a me thing), meron itong ganyan kaya mag-ingat ka lang kung hindi ka komportable dito bago kunin. Iyon ang eksaktong dahilan kung bakit ako nag-aatubili noong una.

Muli, gaya ng aking naobserbahan, pinatawa ako, napangiti, napabuntong-hininga, napahiya, napahiyaw, at iba pa ako habang binabsa ito. Parang gusto ko ang mga gawa ng author dahil sa maraming beses na akong natatawa sa bawat chapter. The fact na malungkot ang isang chapter tapos biglang naging nakakatawa yung sumunod na scene 😂 Ang tanga ko isipin na magpapatuloy ang lungkot. Namumuo na ang luha ko pero biglang umatras.

--------

I was hesitant when I started this because I do not enjoy Yanna's character in the first book because of her actions and words.

What kept me from not continuing this is Hiro because I want to know how he'll handle someone like Yanna. I'm glad he treated her with respect despite the first impression of being straightforward at her lewdness. I try my best to read books that don't have too much sexual content (I skip those when it's too much 😅 it's a me thing), this has those so just beware if you're uncomfortable with it before picking it up. That's the exact reason why I was reluctant at first.

Again, as I have observed, the author made me laugh, smile, gasp, feel secondhand embarrassment, scream, and more while reading this. I seem to like her works because of the many times I've laughed in each chapter. The fact that one chapter was supposed to be sad then suddenly became funny the next scene 😂 I was a fool to think the sadness would continue. My tears were building up but retreated.

THIS BOOK. The characters are so likeable, and the plot is just *chef's kiss*. You fall in love with Yanna, Hiro, and their relationship because of how good it was portrayed. The way you can already see the web of connections between the characters in the first book and this makes you excited for what's to come for the next books in the series.
