Love and Unlove

By: Yang Janchen Robe C

A topic that everyone can relate to is the topic of love. This poem called  Love and Unlove was written by Bella Coronel. It was written when she was in the process of letting go of someone she cared about. She did mention that she knew from the beginning that he was not the man meant for her. She tried to keep attachments with him, continued connections, and imagined scenarios of romance but finally, a realization came to her, and there she knew that the love she is in right now is not gonna last.

I believe it does not only apply to people who see their relationship not working but also to couples that are harming their partner. This poem shows that we should learn to accept and leave these partners because setting yourself and your partner free is the best way of showing love and unlove.

I saw this in Facebook while I was scanning through some post and I believe it can become world literature because it’s relatable and with proper use of social media and if it caught the attention of other it can spread to other countries.

Here is the post on Facebook

Behind the Facade of True Love: An Until Trilogy By Jonaxx Book Review Posted by: Ma. Shiela Mae A. Saavedra (Spoiler alert! Read at your own risk) “Love is war, I am your soldier” - Elijah Montefalco, Until He Returned Have you ever experienced falling in love with another person? But, what if the person you love is related to you by blood? And the worst part of it is that you grew up together as a cousin.  I first read this trilogy when I was 11 years old. Those times where Wattpad was an escape place for junior high school students. Those times when I thought this story only talks about love and incest, without realizing that this has other vital notes to offer. I reread it this year– I am 19 years old already, and trust me when I say this work can be potential world literature, and I will discuss why. Until trilogy is a romance story from Wattpad composed of three books, Until He Was Gone, Until He Returned, and Until Forever. Klare Desteen Montefalco Ty and Elijah Riley Monte...

It is more than what we see: A blog about AnakniRizal's books "So, this is Youth" and "Wake up, Dreamers" by Davin Frialde

During the pandemic, my love for reading has once again sparked. Since I was in my elementary years I have been reading on the mobile app Wattpad. I have decided to read books from one of my favorite authors in the app with a pen name "AnakniRizal" or what we her reader would fondly call her Ate Demi. While she has written a lot of books, most of them published under different publishing houses such as PSICOM and Bliss Books of Anvil Publishing, Inc. Two of her books stood out for me and I'll share with them today. The first one is entitled "So, this is Youth" first written in Wattpad in 2019 and winner of the annual of The Watty Awards in 2020 . It talks about a rich bar owner named Golda who was diagnosed of a terminal illness. Due to that, Golda wanted to accomplish something she wasn't able to do before she dies and that is to graduate high school.She bribed the principal of the school so she would admitted disguised as a teenager. There she met teen...
