After reading and loving Maybe Someday and Ugly Love by Colleen Hoover, I've been dying to get my hands on more of her books. I received Hopeless and Losing Hope as a gift.

I'm so pleased to say that I really enjoyed this read, I have a constant fear that someday I'm going to read a CoHo book that will shatter all of my illusions about her writing, but I can safely say after now reading practically all of her backlist, I think I'm safe.

This is a part of the Hopeless series. Hopeless is also available on Kindle Unlimited with a subscription to read for free. The entire Hopeless series is on Kindle Unlimited to read for free! There are five books (novels (3: Hopeless, Losing Hope, All Your Perfects), and novellas (2: Finding Cinderella, Finding Perfect)).

I absolutely devoured this book. A two-day read for a ~400-page book. All of Colleen Hoover's books are excellent and fast-paced. I read ~250 pages in one sitting. Crazy! And did I get bored, no. If you in a reading slump and you are thinking of reading Hopeless

It starts as any other book about a teenager, with lots of drama. But at about 2/3 of the book, it turns into something else. I never saw it coming. The story is on the sad side, but beautiful too. i liked the ending. It was good and made me smile.

I am torn betwee 3 and 4 stars, but since we can't give 3,5 stars I go for 4 stars.

Normally i don't put anything in here and just put my wee stars on and that's it, but after reading this book i do have to say something... this book was amazing! it broke my heart and then mended it, made me cry, swoon, laugh and basically go threw every emotion all in one sitting - cos it only took me one sitting to read it! i couldn't put it down and didn't want to! i would advise everyone to read 'hopeless'.

Review:
I’m always scared to pick up a CoHo book because I know they’ll leave destruction in their wake. I treat them like atomic bombs about to go off any second, as I should
