Martha Cecilia's Kristine

When I heard ABS CBN was making a TV Series of Kristine, I was excited, but wondered how well they'd bring the story to life, so I reread Martha Cecilia's brilliant novels, I thought I would give this adaptation a try, but the TV adaptation is very disappointing the characters of Margarita and Julia just made the series so cheap, and the story was twisted and corrupted to the highest level.

I have always worried that making such a masterpiece of a book into a TV Series would disappoint many. I was so right. This adaptation makes absolutely no sense.


I was looking so forward to this TV series. I absolutely loved the book and all of its characters. I thought it was an abomination. They completely destroyed a beautifully well written story. If they had kept to the book they would have had a great great series.

As such, I kind of dreaded seeing the adaption, but even as it couldn't - and doesn't - do the books justice, It goes without saying, though I'm saying it anyway, the book was so much more better than what they did in TV.

To the writers i think you never really read MC's books because if you did it will leave an imprint on your soul and you will not ruin it.
