The first books I've rated na less than 4 stars huhuhu :( I think overall the ending kinda makes up for everything naman kasi everyone got their happy ending. However, reading this is so hard—it feels like studying for a subject you really don't find interesting. I was around 100 page na and wala pa ring tension??? or parang something interesting happening between the two main characters. LIKE yk a book eventually gets interesting after reading a few chapters PERO like chapter 20 na ako pero it's still not givinggg. I love the topic though and everything, medyo nakakainis lang si MMC kasi he did that. Not to mention na when she was getting bullied for it, hindi niya siya tinulungan or gumawa man lang ng way to solve the problem. I REALLY TRIED TO LIKE IT peroooo hindi talaga T_____T like talagang hirap na hirap siyang magbasa kahit na less than 10 pages na lang per chapter. Inexpect ko rin na it will be a good read kasi academic rivals yung trope and maganda yung reviews sa tiktok pero huhuhu.
