😭😭😭😭 wait laaaannnngggg @gigidrawer masyado kang mapanaket mhie! 😭😭😭😭 kanina pa ako iyak ng iyak!!!

The last volume is definitely the best one for me. The Kyle-Gian-Joaquin triangle is fiercer, Gian and Joaquin are more "steady", it tackled relatable and very realistic challenges of going into a queer relationship, this made me kilig, dall in love, and then it broke my heart to bits and I'm thankful for it. The third book really felt more grown up but still sweet and kilig.

I haven't read Heartstopper, but I feel like if you like Heartstopper, you should definitely read Somewhere in My Past. It's very Pinoy, it's the perfect blend of sweet, innocent kilig, and the end really drives the story to be more impactful. Also, support our local artists!

Thank you so much, Gigi Chan, for taking us into this nostalgic world.

Okay, Gigi Chan—the author himself—already warned me when I bought this book, so I knew I was in for something intense (and let’s be real, even the title gives you a vibe). I just wish I had taken my time with it, because, wow, this one really hit me hard.

I had expectations going in, and while the story didn’t go the way I imagined, I ended up feeling a mix of emotions by the end. But I guess, that’s the beauty of it. Gigi Chan crafted something that lingers. The emotional beats are real and raw, and the journey felt incredibly personal.

I had the best time squealing over all the kilig moments, especially the selosan scenes! Gigi Chan really nailed those. This book deserves way more readers (so I’m not the only one screaming into the void, lol). And if this ever gets adapted into a TV series or film? You’ll definitely hear me shouting about it nonstop.

There are simply no words in the English language to describe the feelings I've felt after eeading the third installment of this series. I laughed. My heart was pounding jeavily because of how sweet they were. But most importantly, I CRIED. A lot. I cried so much.

i didn't expect the ending but I guess it was a cautionary reminder for us to not dwell so much on the past but we can still look back to the good memories that we had so we can finally enjoy the present. After all, who are we without the power of memories, power of friendships, sentiments and mostly, who are we without love? This is a good ending to the series.

This is truly a warm embrace from start to finish. This is my definition of Heartstopper but let's make it Filipimo. Thank you GigI Chan!
