Hindi ko alam na ganun pala kaganda yung kwento. Naiyak ako sa dulo. Sobrang naawa ako kay Athena, parang hindi ny deserve yung nagyari sa kanya, nabalewala lang siya ni Kenji.
Hayy... ang lungkot ng ending.

This book is one of those who made me want to read more of our Filipino authors. It made me cry not once but a couple of times. I don't want to talk further but this book is really one of my unforgettable Tagalog reads.
06/01/2014 | Bought this yesterday and finished it today. Ending made me cry but either the story was too fast for me or I just didn't pay attention while reading. Will re-read.
Too cliche. Too fast. Too dry.
Im going to try really hard to keep from focusing on the negative side too much.
The story itself, bad-guy-falls-for-the-normal-chick-turns-good is really cliche. The characters, especially Kenjie, could have had a chance, if it was only written properly. His POV didnt offer much explanation for his behavior towards Athena. Plus the gangster title. That part annoyed me a bit. He was just a hot, rich, spoiled guy who got into brawls once in a while. He's not the type of guy who gets a fan club.
The Athena Dizon-Tizon thing was very unrealistic. I mean, seriously? What are the chances? Plus the part at the end where BOTH girls have life threatening diseases and they both need him? And I still dont get how Athena fell inlove with Kenjie. He was mostly rude, mean and indifferent towards her. Even when they were finally together, I was very irritated at the part where he left her and went back again, where she welcomed him back with no proper explanation. I was NOT satisfied with the character development.
The organization of thoughts and the events was amateur and dirty. The execution of the dialogue was too fast and too dry, plus the emoticons were super distracting. The transition from the three dialects used, Filipino, English & Korean was rough and confusing. It wasn't organized at all. In the first part, the author was trying to hard to make the readers kilig while in the last parts, she was trying too hard to make the reader cry. I appreciate her efforts, but she used to many mainstream lines and overused circumstances. And the ending. That really bugged me. I feel like their relationship didnt get to that point yet, the point where the guy literally cannot live without her, and he really wants to be with her so much, he goes off and kills himself.
Im not being biased here.
