Book: It Ends With Us by Colleen Hoover

★★★★★/★★★★★

Just because someone hurts you doesn’t mean you can simply stop loving them. It’s not a person’s actions that hurt the most. It’s the love. If there was no love attached to the action, the pain would be a little easier to bear.

Naked truth:  This book is probably the best book I've read this year!

Colleen Hoover sure knows how to break hearts! Because this books just managed to break mine and my tears just won't stop pouring for the most part of the book. Like, seriously! It was like I was feeling Lily's pain and oh my god it hurt! :'( But that ending was perfect!

SOMETIMES THE ONE WHO LOVES YOU IS THE ONE WHO HURTS YOU THE MOST

It Ends With Us is a powerful, emotional and beautiful story that gives us an outlook of life, family and relationships with some of their ugly sides. Colleen was able to write a story we can all relate with and what I loved most in this book was its honesty. It was very sad and painful but very honest. EVERYONE should read this book! The story doesn't only give us an inspiring story but it teaches us how to have the strength to make right choices especially in the hardest situations.

[Warning: This review contains some spoilers!]

Lily Bloom, just like some us, didn't have the perfect family. And really, who has ever had a perfect family? She grew up with her father occasionally hitting her mother and she hated her father for that. As a child she didn't understand why her mother stayed but as she became older she realized that sometimes the people we love are the ones who hurt us the most.

Now in her early twenties, Lily is living in Boston in hope of starting her own business. She moved out of her parents' house after graduating and somehow she just wants to see if everything is really better in Boston. On the night of her father's funeral, she meets Ryle Kincaid on some rooftop she Googled and right there and then they just start telling each other naked truths. Their meeting didn't end there and next thing they knew they are falling in love with each other. But as Lily and Ryle begin to get serious, someone from Lily's past just suddenly reappears. Someone who held, still holds, a piece of her heart. Atlas.

I have so many things I liked in this book and let me start with how much I loved the characters! Lily is such a brave and lovely and talented and amazing character. She's smart and she likes making bold decisions because she trusts herself to succeed. She's able to start up her own business; a flower shop with the help of her new bff, Allysa, Ryle's sister. Everything is going right for her and she can't believe how things are turning up. She has her own business, she's married Ryle and she's in good terms with her mother. Until things from her past start to hunt her. What she went through wasn't easy; seeing her mother getting abused by her father and now she's experiencing the same in the hands of her own husband. She told herself she's not going to be like her mother but soon she finds herself in the same situation, not being able to just walk away. And now she understands why her mother chose to stay: because it's not that easy especially when you truly love the person.

Ryle is the kind of character you easily fall in love with. He's straightforward and ambitious and maybe a bit arrogant but just like the rest of us he's got his issues. He may be successful and looks so perfect on the outside but he's just as broken. His childhood had done some serious damage on him and now it's threatening his relationship with Lily. I actually loved him because he's very sweet (and sometimes cliché) but I didn't care because he loves Lily! And he loves her so much to let her go! :'(

“I feel like everyone fakes who they really are, when deep down we’re all equal amounts of screwed up. Some of us are just better at hiding it than others.”

 Some of my favorite parts were of Ryle because he's just so in love with Lily it hurt. He might have told her that he prioritizes his career more than anything else but he's willing to put it second just for Lily.

“If you don’t want to be with me . . . please tell me right now, Lily. Because when I saw you with him . . . that hurt. I never want to feel that again. And if it hurts this much now, I’m terrified to think of what it could do to me a year from now.”

Now, now, let's get to Atlas Corrigan. While I loved Ryle, I really really loved Atlas! Atlas showed up in Lily's life when she was fifteen. He was homeless then, finding shelter in the abandoned house at the back of Lily's  house. When Lily found out about his situation, she began to worry and eventually decided to help him. As they spent time together, they got to know each other and feelings started to grow. But Atlas had to leave. He didn't have a choice and like it or not he had to leave Lily. Before leaving, he made a promise to find her when he knew he's already good enough for her and told her that if she ever though of finding him in the future then she knew where to look; in Boston where everything is better.

Atlas's story is as heartbreaking as Lily's and Ryle's. He ran away from home and his mother didn't care much. He was actually ready to end his life but when he saw Lily, it gave him hope. And I guess that's a really powerful scene.

“You saved my life, Lily,” he said to me. “And you weren’t even trying.”

During those times Lily was with Atlas, she was also writing to Ellen DeGeneres. She never sent them but it was her form of journal in which she wrote to Ellen and told her everything that's happened to her including Atlas. Especially Atlas. Later, Lily introduced The Ellen DeGeneres Show to Atlas and it somehow became a big part of their lives. So when Atlas left, Lily stopped watching it. She just can't watch Ellen without Atlas. She also stopped writing. Because what's the point if she can't tell Ellen about Atlas anymore. After some years, Atlas reappears in Lily's life and it's when her relationship with Ryle is threatened. Lily still remembers everything about Atlas and how could she forget him when he was her first love—her protector.

Lily,
Atlas says just keep swimming.
—Ellen DeGeneres

Now that Atlas and Lily have met again and Ryle found out about it, things between Lily and Ryle start to go south. Ryle starts to do things he doesn't mean to do and he ends up asking for Lily's forgiveness over and over again. The first time it happens, Lily lets it slip. The second time she tries to convince herself it won't happen again but the third time, it's too much. She has to walk away. And Atlas is there when she needs someone the most.

I knew what Ryle did to Lily would permanently damage their relationship but I was actually hoping for Lily to give him one last chance! But at the same time I wanted to punch Ryle and tell him to fudge off! And then some parts of me were rooting for Atlas to just grab Lily and take her away where no one can hurt her! I know it's a little fuck up but I just wanted everything to be fine with Lily! She didn't deserve that shit and someone just please hand me a tissue because I feel like crying! Again! :'(

 Naked truth: Atlas is just so perfect I want to marry him! 

“In the future . . . if by some miracle you ever find yourself in the position to fall in love again . . . fall in love with me.” He presses his lips against my forehead. “You’re still my favorite person, Lily. Always will be.”

 Other characters that I loved are Allysa and Marshall! They are just as endearing and they are a lovely and funny couple. I liked that Allysa became Lily's bestfriend and together their girl power is just too much! And let's not forget Lily's mother. I loved that she and Lily are in a good relationship and that they take care of each other.

 “Sometimes even grown women need their mother’s comfort so we can just take a break from having to be strong all the time.

I can't imagine how hard and painful it must be for Lily's mother all those times. She's been a very strong mother, enduring her husband's beating just because she loved him. My heart broke for her. :'( And Lily must've not understood before but now she knows how brave and strong her mother has been. But unlike her mother, she chose to walk away because she knew it's for the best. Both for her and Emerson!

“It stops here. With me and you. It ends with us.”
 
Gahhh! I still can't get over this book. Maybe not for another week. Or month! It's just soooo good that I'm forcing my sister to read it. YOU SHOULD READ THIS!! Colleen managed to give us a very powerful story and I hope everyone gets the message she wanted to deliver. It's heavy and painful but let's learn from it. 

This book is really especial and I hope it reaches more readers! Good Job, Colleen for writing a book that will forever be in my heart.

People say that teenagers don’t know how to love like an adult. Part of me believes that, but I’m not an adult and so I have nothing to compare it to. But I do believe it’s probably different. I’m sure there’s more substance in the love between two adults than there is between two teenagers. There’s probably more maturity, more respect, more responsibility. But no matter how different the substance of a love might be at different ages in a person’s life, I know that love still has to weigh the same. You feel that weight on your shoulders and in your stomach and on your heart no matter how old you are.

Book: A Thousand Boy Kisses by Tillie Cole

★★★/★★★★★

“Live hard, love harder. Chase dreams, seek adventures … capture moments. Live beautifully.”

When I started reading this book I didn't have any idea it would be full of heartbreaking moments. The first few pages were lovely and I loved Poppy and Rune's instant and special bond. They were bestfriends since five, shared their first kiss at the age of eight and by fifteen they were inseparable. Poppy and Rune were those teenagers who fell in love instantly and promised to love each other forever. Well, that was the plan if only things were different.

Poppy Litchfield was an adventurous and free-spirited girl who loved to go to different adventures with her Mamaw. When she was five, a new family transferred to the house next to them and that was when she met Rune. Five years old Rune Kristiansen hated that his family had to move to Georgia from Norway because of his father's job. He didn't like it at first but when he met Poppy, the girl next door, he started to soften up and eventually fell for her. Years after, Poppymin (meaning My Poppy) and Viking Rune (because he kept his hair long and was from Oslo) were the best of friends and they always had to be together. When they were eight, Poppy's Mamaw (grandmother) passed away but before she said her goodbye, she gave Poppy an adventure she knew she'd love. Mamaw gave her a mason jar full of a thousand blank little pink paper hearts. She said that it was time for Poppy to have her own adventure and she wanted her to fill those blank paper hearts with her own boy-kisses. Boy kisses were the kisses given by Poppy’s grandfather to her Mamaw and it’s her Mamaw’s favorite thing.

I loved the concept of the thousand boy kisses and it was actually sweet. I already suspected that there would be a lot of kisses involved by just seeing the title and true enough with the jar and the thousand little pink paper hearts, a lot of kissing happened.

I'll give you a Thousand kisses, Poppymin. All of them. No one will kiss you ever, but me.

As the story went on, it became more and more poignant. Rune's family had to go back to Norway because of his father's job again and Rune hated his father because of it. They were fifteen by then and because he was young and in love and foolish, he didn't understand that his father didn't have a choice and that it was also hard for his family to move again. Now with Rune in Norway and Poppy in Georgia, they tried to keep their relationship and communication for the first few months until Poppy just suddenly stopped talking to Rune and her family moved away too. Rune tried everything to reach her through her friends and everyone else but no one seemed to know where Poppy and her family had gone too. Two years later, Poppy and her family was back in Georgia and few weeks after they moved back, Rune and his family also moved back from Norway. Poppy didn't expect to see Rune again and Rune didn't expect to still love Poppy after all those years.

Attending the same school, Rune and Poppy can't avoid but to see each other again. But this time Rune was different. He was cold, he was smoking and he didn't take pictures anymore. Before, he used to be calm and sweet and he loved photography. But two years had changed him and being away from Poppy surely ruined him. Poppy, on the other hand, was still the same. She still played cello, she was still warm and she still loved Rune. But this time, she had cancer and she only had months to live.

Because I still loved him as much as I always had. Even if the boy I loved no longer loved me back.”

It was hard not to feel sad for Poppy and Rune because their love for each other was pure and undying. And though they were still young, they believed that there wouldn't be anyone else for either of them because their feelings were strong and cancer can't stop them for having the best love of their lives. Poppy lived her remaining days with Rune and Rune stayed by Poppy's sides, giving her the best things in life. They also had the support of their family and friends.

The reason why I'm giving this book a 3-star is because while I loved the thousand boy kisses, there were times when I found myself waiting for it to just end. I mean, I knew what would eventually happen and things were just dragging on. The twist came early in the book and when I realized what would happen next, I think that was when I started to disconnect myself. Aside from few scenes that were able to tug at my emotions, I felt emotionally detached most of the times. Don't get me wrong, it was sweet and beautiful and full of emotions but I think it was too cheesy and too cliché for me.

A lot of people loved this book and I'm happy for them. I liked it and it was a lovely book and I hope the next person who would read it would like it too.

The one-thousandth kiss... with my Poppy. When she returned home... my heart completely burst.”

Book: Everything, Everything by Nicola Yoon

★★★/★★★★★

“Spoiler alert: Love is worth everything. Everything.”  

 This is one of those book that I expected to love just by seeing the title and cover. And true enough, I enjoyed and loved it! It's an I-love-it-even-though-it-was-predictable story and I don't care. It's creative and thoughtful and full of heart and those are what matter, right?

 Madeline is sick. Can't-go-out-of-the-house-she-dies-if-she-does kind of sick. She hasn't been out of their house for eighteen years, only making contact with her mom and her personal nurse, Carla, and taking online studies. She's fine with her life like this, spending quality time with her mom, reading books, watching people outside her window until people move in next door. Until that bundt cake. Until Olly gives her his email address. Until Olly invades her personal space. Now she wants to know Olly more, personally-physically-emotionally, breaking her mom's rule of not letting anyone inside their house unless permitted by her with the help of Carla. Carla agrees because she feels sorry for Maddy for not experiencing the life, and love, she should be feeling at her age. She agrees to let Olly come over to meet Maddy but with one strict rule, to stay as far away as possible to Maddy. But you know what love does to people. It makes you do crazy things. So even though Maddy knows that touching Olly could cause her life, she doesn't care. And that's when she realizes that she's falling in love with him and there's no stopping it.
 .
"Maybe we can’t predict the future, but we can predict some things. For example, I am certainly going to fall in love with Olly. It’s almost certainly going to be a disaster."

Her feelings for him grow with each passing day to the point of disobeying her mom by going outside one morning just to make sure Olly is okay from all the fighting that is going on with his family. That action causes her to lose Carla, her mom's trust and her internet privilege. And one day, remembering what Carla told her about life being a gift, she decided to run away. With Olly. Even though she knows that she could die anytime soon.
 
 The story is not new to me but it's nice to see how creative it was written. I also had some concerns at first, like how childish Madeline was and how it was an insta-love but then I realized that Madeline hasn't been out to see the world, let alone her neighborhood, for eighteen freaking years and so she didn't have any idea about some things except for what she's read in her books or internet. She instantly fell for Olly that it made me frown and excited at the same time and I didn't know how possible that was. The frowning and excited part, I mean. But they were cute.

i love you maddy

 Anyhoo, I understand why her mom did it but if I were Maddy, I would be mad too. Her mom was scared and she just wanted to protect her from the harmful world but she didn't have the right to take Maddy away from everything. Eighteen years without knowing, feeling, seeing, experiencing the outside world and maybe all the other years ahead of her if she didn't find out the truth. It's heartbreaking for her mom, knowing Maddy could leave her now, but fortunate for Maddy because she can now see the world one breath at a time. And maybe now she can love Olly without worrying that she can die anytime.

Book: Bully by Penelope Douglas

 ★★/★★★★★
 
I was excited to finish this book when I started reading it but I was a bit disappointed by how the story went. The story was confusing and I didn't really get the character of Jared. At first I thought he was just mad at Tate because she did something but then Tate can't remember anything she did that might've hurt him or something. He harassed, bullied and made Tate's life a living hell throughout high school and I thought of everything I could think of why he was so mad at her but didn't really find out until I finished the book. The twist of the story was well written but the way how Jared acted and treated Tate was a bit confusing. Anyway, just read the book if you want to know what I'm talking about.
 
Synopsis from Goodreads: 
My name is Tate. He doesn't call me that, though. He would never refer to me so informally, if he referred to me at all. No, he'll barely even speak to me.
But he still won't leave me alone.

We were best friends once. Then he turned on me and made it his mission to ruin my life. I've been humiliated, shut out, and gossiped about all through high school. His pranks and rumors got more sadistic as time wore on, and I made myself sick trying to stay out of his way. I even went to France for a year, just to avoid him.

But I'm done hiding from him now, and there's no way in hell I'll allow him to ruin my senior year. He might not have changed, but I have. It's time to fight back.
I'm not going to let him bully me anymore.
 
“Yesterday lasts forever.
Tomorrow comes never.
Until you”

Book: Ugly Love by Collen Hoover

★★★/★★★★★

“If I were capable of loving someone . . . it would be you.”

When love is not the reason, everything gets ugly.

Finally, I got to read this book and I can say that Colleen Hoover is really amazing! :)

Tate and Miles just proved that everyone gets a second chance. And it may take forever but there is always, always, someone to prove you wrong when you think you can't love again.  

“It's the beautiful moments like this that make up for the ugly love”

#life

She likes to sleep. It makes her forget about it.” 

Everything. Sleep makes me forget about everything that I almost wish I could sleep forever. Almost.

I know it's normal to feel down, tired, sad, disappointed, rejected, heartbroken, left out, mad or confused sometimes. Or most of the times, everything at the same time. And I also know that it's okay to cry if you can't take it anymore. It's okay to take a breath or to pause or to scream or to cry your heart out. It's okay to let it all out. It's okay. But after, tell yourself you're gonna be fine, that everything is going to be fine. Because it's true that everything get's better, everything will be alright. You just have to believe it, you just have to make it alright. So scream now, let it all out then take a deep breath. And I'm sure tomorrow you'll feel better. Tomorrow you'll feel lighter. 
Believe me you will be fine! :)

Amnesia by 5 Seconds of Summer ♫♪


I drove by all the places we used to hang out getting wasted
I thought about our last kiss, how it felt the way you tasted
And even though your friends tell me you're doing fine

Are you somewhere feeling lonely even though he's right beside you?
When he says those words that hurt you, do you read the ones I wrote you?


Sometimes I start to wonder, was it just a lie?
If what we had was real, how could you be fine?


'Cause I'm not fine at all

I remember the day you told me you were leaving
I remember the make-up running down your face
And the dreams you left behind you didn't need them
Like every single wish we ever made

I wish that I could wake up with amnesia
And forget about the stupid little things
Like the way it felt to fall asleep next to you
And the memories I never can escape

'Cause I'm not fine at all

The pictures that you sent me they're still living in my phone
I'll admit I like to see them, I'll admit I feel alone
And all my friends keep asking why I'm not around

It hurts to know you're happy, yeah, it hurts that you've moved on
It's hard to hear your name when I haven't seen you in so long


It's like we never happened, was it just a lie?
If what we had was real, how could you be fine?

'Cause I'm not fine at all

I remember the day you told me you were leaving
I remember the make-up running down your face
And the dreams you left behind you didn't need them
Like every single wish we ever made

I wish that I could wake up with amnesia
And forget about the stupid little things
Like the way it felt to fall asleep next to you
And the memories I never can escape


If today I woke up with you right beside me
Like all of this was just some twisted dream
I'd hold you closer than I ever did before
And you'd never slip away
And you'd never hear me say

I remember the day you told me you were leaving
I remember the make-up running down your face
And the dreams you left behind you didn't need them
Like every single wish we ever made

I wish that I could wake up with amnesia
And forget about the stupid little things
Like the way it felt to fall asleep next to you
And the memories I never can escape

'Cause I'm not fine at all
No, I'm really not fine at all

Tell me this is just a dream
'Cause I'm really not fine at all

Valentine's Day

 So that next year I'll have a Valentine already. :)

Today was....fine. I had plans but unfortunately none of them happened. Well, one happened but not as how I planned it. Anyway, I really had a long day. It was tiring but I had fun. I saw couples walking hand in hand, kissing, cuddling and everything all day which really inspired me to get my own boyfriend. Lol. But I was happy to spend the day with my sister and friends :)We watched movies, had ice cream and just talked about everything just to get me through the day. HaHa. I don't really dislike VDay but it makes me sad. Thinking that my friends have boyfriend/girlfriend and I don't have. Just how sad is that? 
I just really hope next year I will finally have a date. :)

First Love

What's with me and first loves? Seriously! Why do I feel so much about it? I mean, I feel different everytime I watch movies about first love. When the guy finally realizes that he likes the girl and for the first time he knows that he's in love and sort of things. Or when the girl breaks up with her boyfriend because she realizes that she doesn't really love him and that she's in love with someone else. Or when the guy is with the girl he likes and respects her and do things the girl will like. Oh please! I'm so done with first love but why? I guess maybe because I remember the feeling of having your first love. When you feel all happy and excited seeing that guy and you just want to be with him all the time. Anyway, I just miss that feeling. 

But who doesn't remember his/her first love? Everyone remembers their first love! I do. But won't tell you about it anymore. :)

Love, Rosie


OMG! I've been waiting for this all my life! I was second year college when I first read this book and I really loved it. I saw this in our library and I was so glad I picked this up. It became one of my favorite books ever!! I've read it a lot of times already and I would never get tired reading it again and again and again. I just love the story, the characters and how they ended up together in the end after so many years. I love this. So much! And I've been dying to see the trailer of the movie but until now there's nothing. But I'm glad there's already a poster and I wish the trailer would come out very very soooooon! And I also love Lily Collins that's why I'm really excited to see the movie. Favorite book + favorite actress = asdfghjklfhgdjfhlgjfdl!!!! I just hope it would be as good as the book.

Again...

"If someone has enough courage to ask you a question seriously, then you should be brave enough to answer truthfully."

Why does he have to make it so complicated? All he has to do is ask! I've been waiting patiently but I think I can't wait anymore. I'm so done. :(

Poem: Waiting For Forever...

-JUST FRIENDS-
It was childhood days when we first met
And it was your face I couldn't forget,
We used to play and study together
Those were old good days when we were younger...
Three years and things worked out just fine
We were happy and excited all the time,
I guess we both knew but we haven't told
Maybe we just have to wait until we're old...


-FRIENDS TO STRANGERS-
We used to talk all night and all day
Then things changed like we didn't know what to say,
Maybe you've already changed and moved on
But I guess this is life and it goes on...


-FRIENDS AGAIN-
Years gone by and we started talking again
We acted like nothing really happened,
So we were friends again and I was happy
And I felt different suddenly...


-WAITING FOR FOREVER-
You were gone again and I don't know what to do
Should I keep waiting or should I forget you?
I tried my best but nothing happened
I guess I had enough and I can't wait again...

It's you!

Why are you so manhid? Isn't it too obvious that all my posts are about you and yet you still don't have any idea, even a slightest idea, that it's you. Do I still have to mention you on every post I make? Do I still have to write your name and be proud that you're ignoring me? Do I still have to show everyone that I like you even though you don't want to talk to me. Okay. I'll do that. Maybe no. Never. 

And it's so funny when you have everything about him on your posts and still he doesn't know it's him.

I give up. Ako na nga ung gumagawa ng paraan pero wala pa din. I'll open up a conversation but still you wouldn't do anything to continue it. I mean, I'll say hi and you'll say hello and that's it. You wouldn't reply after. It's like if I say okay, you'll say okay too and that'll kill the conversation. Such a waste. Sad. We both know what's there between us but what are you doing? Have you changed your mind about me? Have you already realized that you don't like me anymore like how you liked me before? It's fine! Just tell it to me and I'll understand. It's better than making me hanging on on something hopeless. Just say it. Coz I'm tired of waiting and wondering if there's still something between us.

 Slowing drifting away...

I'm tired of having feelings. :(

Book: The Fault In Our Stars by John Green

Oh. My. Gosh. I cried a lot because of this book. 
It was really good and wonderful and beautiful and everything. 
“Oh, I wouldn’t mind, Hazel Grace. It would be a privilege to have my heart broken by you.”  -Augustus Waters

 
I wouldn't talk about what the book is all about but I will tell you my thoughts about it.
So, first, I loved it. I loved Hazel Grace. I love how she'd been so strong, how she fought cancer, how she liked it that Augustus called him Hazel Grace, how she flirted with Augustus by just saying "okay", how she read An Imperial Affliction over and over again, how she needed to know the next thing that happens to Anna, her mom and the Dutch tulip man, how she loved Augustus, how she got angry at Peter Van Houten and how she still missed Augustus. And I loved Augustus Waters. I loved the way he called Hazel, Hazel Grace, how he put a cigarette on his lips but never lighted one, how he was described as sexy, how he spent his wish to bring Hazel to Amsterdam to meet Peter Van Houten, how he flirted with Hazel on the phone, how he was willing to be heart broken as long as it was Hazel Grace and how he said "I'm in love with you" to Hazel Grace. I loved the story, the characters, and everything about it. And did I mention that I loved it?

"Okay."

I also heard that this will be made into a movie so I'm really excited. This would be a great one and I know people will love it too. I also  introduced this book to my sister and she told me she will find time to read it because she's so busy with school works. Yey! Now I have someone to talk to about Hazel Grace and Augustus. :))
