They say that happy-go-lucky people bury their deepest pain behind smiles. For Maverick Evander, an architecture student, was entangled in a web of uncertainty by his parents' decision to separate. Beneath his playful image and a well-known loud circle, he was able to carry a facade-a mystery no one could ever decipher.
How can you read someone when they are just black pages in the book? That's how engineering student Rade Archiel Tejano sees Mavric: a blinding sun you could only graze upon. And the more he tries to solve the puzzles in Mavric's mind games, the more Mavric's wall thickens.
Will Rade be able to crush someone who is already broken? Will Mavric top someone when he's the one who's falling? In a play where one had to win, both of them fell...hard.
i think this book is one of my comfort books. i’ve been re-reading this since the book finished and now having a physical book to read the special chapters are just so 🥹 from mav’s attitude at the start to his character development? it was so fresh seeing a character being so vulnerable at the same time so strong to face his problems, especially with his family. and i can’t with rade! RADE IS SOOOOO green flag 🥹 i wholeheartedly want to thank ineryss for writing this book, it healed me so much in many ways.
oh to be able read this the first time again, that’s how much i love this book. it really has all the emotions i can feel, and the plot was well executed, hindi kulang at hindi rin sobra, ‘yung tipong natapos ko siya ng isang buong araw na upuan at masasabi kong satisfied naman ako since nagulat din ako sa mga plot twists. miss na miss ko na ang mavrade ko.
im like mav, i rather runaway from the problem and keep it on myself than telling and showing everyone im struggling, pero tama si rade, dapat di natin kinikimkim mga nararamdaman natin, we could cry and feel every our emotions,
HELL YEAHHH ! MavRade ? I’m honestly shocked because Shi and Brent’s story was so soft, and then they came like, wow. But honestly, they really did heal each other in so many ways : )
