My friend recommended me this book, saying that it was good. Much to my dismay, this one is so typical that I can't wait to reach the end and hide it somewhere. The story was too fast-paced that it didn't made me think or feel anything at all, which is very bad because this is supposed to be a "romance" story. The characters are so annoying, save to Marj that was overshadowed by everyone. I could really love this book as I can relate to the protagonist so much; but this is not a good book at all. Typical high school love story plus annoying character na si Kyle. Masyado lang ako nabibilisan sa pagkukwento. Kaya habang nagbabasa, parang nagmamadali din ako. I even skipped some pages and chapters dahil gusto ko na malaman ang ending though nakikinikinita ko na rin naman kung ano ang kahahantungan ng story. When I read, I tend to imagine the face ng characters, 'yung setting ng place, 'yung feeling ng moment na 'yun. but on this one, wala akong maimagine. Kaya ko nasabing nabibilisan ako.But then it was still a good read para sa isang tao na namimis kiligin at gusto mag-reminisce ng high school moments.
What do You think about 548 Heartbeats (2000)?
The story is typical..but by being close to reality I love the story.. it's amzing :)
