It is one of my Favorite.
I read it long time ago so i don't remember much.
This is one of the best! Eventually this is a series but you can read it individually since it features different characters from SanIgnacio some are friends or relates to the previous characters.

I love IT!

Kim was 16 when she fell in love with renz. Crush turn to true love.
Related din sa tunay na buhay, ilan sa atin simula 16 years old, marami na tayong karanasan sa pag-ibig. Tuwa, kilig, at kung ano-anu pa.

"Naaalala mo rin ba iyon, sweetheart?"


Who would've thought that that endearment was so sweet—lalo na kung kami 'yan.

Nakabili ako ng unang tatlong libro mula sa series na ito ilang taon na rin ang nakakalipas—dahil ang ganda ng pastel-like covers nila at, hello, libro ito ni Miss Martha Cecilia oh, hello—sinubukan ko siyang basahin noong nagka-pandemya ngunit it was just not my cup of tea. Ngayong taon, grabe, iba talaga 'yung lakas na nag-u-udyok sa akin para basahin ito, at hindi ko ito pinagsisisihan.

Binasa ko ito sa loob lamang ng isang araw noong naghihintay ako para sa enrolment ko sa ibang unibersidad. Dedma. Dedma kung isipin ng mga kaedaran ko na kinikilig at nab-b'wisit ako sa harap ng cellphone ko. Worth a read!

Maikli lamang pero ang mga karakter ay sobra mong mamahalin. B'wisit na b'wisit ako ro'n sa babae na umaaligid kay Renz—nakalimutan ko ang pangalan—kung totoong tao siya malamang ay natanggal ko na ang buhok niya sa sobrang gigil at lakas ng pagkakahatak ko.

Enjoy reading, worth it ito!

I have finished this Tagalog pocketbook. It's really a wonderful short story of a couple. I love this book though I'm having a hard time fixing my Tagalog language understanding since I have been closed to reading and writing in English.
To be honest, I really missed this kind of stories. High school crushes and teenage love evolution. I love how the story is really a reader friendly, the flow is smooth and it has really a good concept.
I learned how communication is really important inside the relationship to avoid creating a big misunderstanding which lead to emotional discourage for both parties. I love how both of the protagonist done their very best to be successful in life regardless of their status. I love how the parents helped them and don't blame nor pressure their daughter, it's a big respect for them.
Martha Cecilia is a good author for this one, it's really heart-catching and heartbreaking.

Okay, so the first time that I read this was when I was in grade 6 lol. Noong yung cousin kong super close eh, nanliligaw sa classmate ko at nagpapadala ng love letter. Basta na lang kumuha ang loko ng mapagpapatungan at nagkataong itong book na ito 'yun.

At dahil messenger niya ako, itong pocketbook na ito yung kapalit. Hahaha!


Maraming parts akong hindi pa maintindihan pero sobra akong na-in love dito lalo kay Renz! Too bad my mom found out na nagbabasa na ako ng pocketbooks and itinago niya so when I was in 3rd year highscool, may natagpuan akong palitan ng 2nd hand pocketbooks and voila! I collected all 19 books and Renz and Miles are my favorites!

Maganda yung simula so far kung i-ko-compare ko to nung panahong teenager pa ako nung binabasa ko to masasabi ko na this is really a good story. I'm expecting more scenes specially sa confrontation scene nila Dianne, Kimberly at Renz. Pero I guess my required number of words lang si Ms. Martha nung sinusulat niya to.

Nagustuhan ko yung scene nung pagkikita nila Ralph at Renz super ganda din ng eksena yun.

I'll check for the sweetheart 2 kung kanino ang magandang story.

This is one of the pocket books i have loved back in HS. Maybe a door for me towards the world of love. Dito ko naramdaman yung "Sana all sensation" pagkatapos mabasa yung book. And ahm based on true story to 😊

Hindi pagkakaroon ng tiwala, mis-communication at pakikinig sa iba without checking ang kabilang panig ang ilan sa issues sa relationship na nakapaloob sa kuwento na ito. Ito din ang mga madalas na nababasa natin sa love stories at parang pinapa-alala lamang sa atin na ilan sa secrets for successful relationship ay ang tiwala at matutong magkaroon ng open communication sa bawat magkarelasyon.

I just love this book. It's not very typical. Renz thought Kim betrayed him and married another guy instead, while Kim's pregnant and brokenheartedly thought Renz left her and didn't keep his promise. It was all a misunderstanding on both. I like the ending. It's sweet and funny.

Martha Cecilia never fails my expectation. She's a very good writer and I'm a huge fan of hers.
