IE - Hon Judge Abernathy aka Russel Edgington from True Blood in the 2nd episode. The Good Fight is a breath of fresh air, bringing in the supporting cast of the original in the 1st episode with cameo appearances from actors that had minor recurring roles in The Good wife. In general, (in my opinion) I find them to be lackluster and solely rely on one character from the original series. This novel from 2012 is the kind of Christian Simamora’s one that I can’t stop reading page after page.It was a pleasant surprise to see a spin off of The Good Wife.

🙂 Overall, I’m giving 4 out of 5 stars for this novel. The storm passed by when each of their lovers found out they were together, but as other romance novel, they ended up happily ever after. A surprising move from Jet that night finally changed Tere’s heart – they fell in love and were pretty good at it. Apparently, they were good as friends too when no argument takes place. Being stuck in an elevator together for an hour one night, they shared stories from heart to heart, without any argument this time. One day, Jet found out the dark side of Tere’s love life: she was the third wheel of her boyfriend’s engagement, just like him and his girlfriend. In short, Tere felt a deep hatred over Jet that Lisa told her to control herself because deep hatred will most likely lead to deepest love. Ever since she first met Jethro Liem, a photographer for the magazine, they never missed an argument. Teresia is a successful young lady working as a chief fashion stylist for Mascara (yes, the very same Mascara as the one read by Devika in Guilty Pleasure), together with her best friend Lisa and the two-in-one Sesa and Rian (and yes, this is the same Rian as the one in Guilty Pleasure as well).

*intermezzo: work has been so crazy that even though I finished reading this novel last week, I just have the chance to review it here today* Good Fight 2012’s cover Apparently they reprint it to match Christian Simamora’s J-boyfriend series’ style: muscly guys’ abs on the cover. I’ve been looking for the novel for the past year and never found it.

So I went to the bookstore 2 weeks ago to search for gift idea for my best friend who’s studying abroad and the first thing that came to my eyes was this book instead. Good Fight by Christian Simamora, 2014’s new cover
