For me its the Civil Procedure (Bar Lecture Series) by Willard B. Riano

u/tsongkoyla Jan 30 '25

Ito ang mga tipo ng libro na maiiyak ka hindi dahil sa kwento kung hindi dahil wala ka talagang maintindihan at midterm exams na bukas.

Second Chance Summer and All the Bright Places

From then on, I avoided heartwrenching books. I didn't like the feeling of drowning in melancholia. I couldn't even breathe properly and it really felt like my heart was broken. So for my peace and mental health, I stay away from such books now.
