The stars are for Teo, being half-Filipino. More about this soon.
***UPDATE***
Love Walked In was the book club’s book of the month for February. It was supposed to give out feels (was it?) and it did, except that I felt the feels much later in the story. Or maybe it was just me because I didn’t really feel anything for Martin Grace. Sure, he was depicted to be Cornelia’s dream boy (did I just say dream boy? How high school, haha!) but I didn’t like him at all. I didn’t like him at the start — at ...more

As in her other book,Belong to Me A Novel, Marisa De Loa Santos builds great characters that you cannot help but admire and love. Her writing style is fantastic and very easy to read.

For the second time in my life, I read this book in one lazy day. It has now been cemented in my heart as an all-time favorite. The best part is that I have the sequel, Belong to Me, waiting on my Kindle. Joy!
Another book that I thought I would not like and ended up really enjoying. I do not do ROMANCE. But this book is about love, not romance. The characters were people I would like to know and live with.
