The Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF) 2014 2nd Best Picture English Only, Please starring Derek Ramsay and Jennylyn Mercado returns in a new form to bring the lighthearted laughs and contagious kilig back to fans!

Out now from Summit Books is English Only, Please, a novelization by Abigail Millicent Mendoza based on the MMFF 2014 Best Screenplay by Antoinette Jadaone and Anj Pessumal. Written in Taglish, the novel delightfully captures the relatable comedy and charming romance that have endeared the film to Filipino viewers all over the country and beyond.

English Only, Please tells the tale of two brokenhearted souls, New York-based Fil-Am Julian Parker and Filipino-English tutor Tere Madlansacay. Julian flies to Manila with the goal of reciting the Filipino translation of his scathing letter to his ex-girlfriend with the help of Tere, who herself is struggling with her own romantic drama with her on-and-off boyfriend. As Julian and Tere spend more time together, they discover that they’re both fools in love, and eventually form an understanding that goes beyond their language lessons.
