The Perks of Being Heartless
READING AGE 18+
For Alex, love is toxic. It brings nothing but pain and misfortune. She believed that her life would be better if she won't fall in love with anyone. She had witnessed how her mom suffered for loving his dad, who turned out to be a total jerk, and how her sister got hurt because of a break-up.
Alex hated love because of these. She started building a wall against love. She contented herself with being alone and condemning the idea of love, until she met Russell the guy who taught her how to be happy, how to trust people, and how to love. But then, like what people say, pain is paralleled to love.
Will Alex embrace love despite its consequences? Or will she give up and condemn this idea once again like what she did before?
