got this free on a promo for schools. themes take a while to build but when they happen it hits you in the head and it hits hard. will refer this to my colleagues. haven't read a contemporary Philippines story like this in a long time. glad the people behind this are spreading its word online. 4 out of 5 stars, could use editing.

An emotional roller coaster ride, especially the girl Anna. The story starts so simple and then becomes very intense, it does not feel like they had only 10 days because so many things happened. The little things, the smallest things, as the story says, mean so much. i also love the very last line "just on earth". very beautiful story. Cris and Anna 🧡

the story is like reading two diaries of a young man and woman. A girl and most especially a mom should be prepared, especially toward the end... 😭❤️ Overall you get the promise, a love story for the Philippines, but more touching for me is it's a young girl's love letter and love story for God. I love this unconventional novel ❤️❤️❤️
