BOOK REVIEW: ILYS1892

When i started reading I Love You Since 1892, i was so hopeless. My heart is broken, i can't seems to accept my recent heart break, that's why i looked for something i could do for awhile to get my mind off of my recent pain. That's when i saw ILYS1892.

ILYS1892 is written by undeniably gorgeous a filipina wattpad writer. It was written on June 01 2016 and finished on april 27 2017.

Carmela, the main character experienced a lot of things especially she lived as her great grandmother's sister, Carmelita. She learned everything about Carmelita and her timeline which is Year 1892. They don't have so much in common, but they're totally opposite. Carmela fell for Juanito, Carmelita was inlove with Juanito but it was one sided love. So Carmelita decided to end her life and that gives carmela a mission. That mission was to keep Juanito alive. She did. But she fell inlove fore him, so does Juanito. But they don't belong to the same timeline. Carmela fought for juanito so does him. She always remind juanito to stay alive. They got into a lot of trouble, juanito almost died many times. Carmela proved that love knows no age. And Juanito showed that love is worth living for. They both showed that love is worth risking for. Also the story made me realized that freedom is important, since the story was dated back to 1892, that time revolutions started to bloom. The story tells a lot of types of love, like, love for the country, love for family, love for someone, also it tells that friendship is important and risking for the one you love is not a weakness, it is strength.

Moral lesson of the story: in love, you need to have the courage to risk everything you have for the person you love.Loyalty and trust is important in every friendship, relationship and family.

Loving your friend, siblings, your family and a guy has a lot of sacrificing. 

Sometimes a friend can turn its back to you for one person he/she loves.

A person who is so thirsty to power would do anything to bring you down, they can betray you just to stay powerful.

Your parents and sister can die for you just to protect you.

Faith in times of crisis would help.

ILYS1892 taught me a lot of things, it hits me that somehow my problem is small compare to others. There are people that are dying just to fight for what they believe. Also Family is important, don't take everyone for granted because sometimes they're taken from us when we least expected it.
