This book should have a trigger warning list. 

I was waiting for Holden to hit her the entire book, and waiting for “Sky” to realize that she wasn’t experiencing lust for the first time but fight or flight. 

I then got to page 149 where something sinister comes to light and couldn’t read this book word for word anymore. I don’t know if it says something about the predictability but I was able to skip absolute chapters without missing a single important thing. 

Trauma as a plot device seems sloppy but I’m not an author.

A quick read - tragic in parts, very cringey in others. Dark themes and not exactly a literary masterpiece, but it kept me hooked enough to continue reading the series.

Colleen Hoover should not be allowed to handle sensitive topics anymore
because why are we using the sexual assault/rape of two characters as major reveals???

I was not expecting this book to be about SA. I thought it was done well though! 

This book was so good! The beginning personality of the main guy wasn’t my favorite. I didn’t like the original anger and pushiness her showed. That is explained a little later in the book, but that doesn’t excuse it. Overall I loved the story! There were so many plot twists and it kept me hooked! I thought the ending was perfect!

This book deserved 5 ⭐️’s because the characters were lovable, except of course Sky’s father. Holder was so respectful of Sky. I loved that. He loved and respected her. Some guys are not like that in the real world (at least in my experiences 😉). So, that refreshing to see. Great book overall, even though I kept getting distracted due to my short attention span. 😅 That’s why it took me five days to finish the book. Hehe. Must be more focused.
