My thoughts right now:

- MORE PHIL LIT!!!
- Na-bwisit ako sa ending, sa totoo lang. Kaya tinigil kong magbasa ng solid 1hr (Kabanta 35) saka ko itinuloy.
- Kabanta 38— sobrang na-shookt ako kasi ang 'di pa nagtapos 'yung plot twist—MAY PAHABOL PA. And this came from a girl who LOVES TO SOLVE twists.
- Epilogue/Conclusion is very well appreciated and I understand kung bakit kailangang mangyari lahat ng nangyari. It is very just and fair, even for Simoun (it is much explained in the Epilogue). Nakaka-bwisit nga lang HAHAHAHHA I was rooting for the badass Simoun's triumph, but oh well. The last chapter was gorgeous as heck.
- HULI WHAT WERE YOU THINKING? BUTI MAHAL KA NI ISAGANI. HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH Lowkey na hindi may parte sa 'kin na dapat 'di ginawa ni Isagani 'yung dapat niyang gawin.
- Sobrang ma-aksyon SIMULA sa gitna; I love it.
- 4/5 kasi may ibang parte na napilitan lang ako magbasa. I know that this book is designed for political agendas, but I can't help but kick that one star out because I slumped. (The political views are lovely btw)
- MAS GUSTO KO 'YUNG CONCLUSION NITO KAYSA SA NOLI. AND IN TERMS OF SADNESS RATE, MAS PASOK ITO HATDOG DAHIL SA KABANATA 32.
- KABANATA 23 MADE ME CRY LIKE WHAT KABANATA 63 OF NOLI DID TO ME.
- Padre Florentino is the first padre in the duology that I've loved.
- I JUST LOVE JOSE RIZAL
- Sana umusbong Phil Lit NG SOBRANG GARBO. I LOOOOOVEEEEEE
- wALA NANG MANGSO-SPOIL SA AKIN HAHAHAHHAAH
