Brooklyn Matthews doesn't know how he ended up working his butt off for the rest of the summer instead of hanging out at the beach and partying like he thought he would. Actually, he does. If his sister hadn't gone and burned their oven, maybe he wouldn't have met Olivia Clarke. Meet Olivia Clarke. She's sarcastic, annoying, mysterious. Oh, and don't forget, a shoplifter. When Brooklyn catches her stealing from the store one day, neither of them forgets it. Especially when a few months later, they find each other in the same class and - surprise - are made lab partners. What will happen when you partner up brutally opposing forces in class for the whole school year? Chaos will ensue.

"Break na 'yan sa Sabado!"

Balang araw magiging sikat akong writer. Tipong pang-New York Times bestseller. Balang araw isusulat ko ang kwento natin para malaman ng lahat kung gaano kita kamahal. Balang araw mapapatunayan natin na walang makakapagpabago sa pagmamahalan natin. Balang araw magkikita ulit tayo. Tipong hindi na maghihiwalay pa ulit at even death will not do us part.

Naalala mo pa ba.... nung minsang minahal mo ako?

A writer. A weird stranger. A lot of little conversations. An online understanding. Every night. 23:11.

Akala ko may nagbago. Akala ko lang pala.
