This book is fast paced, and unlike the other Hoover book I read, the characters are far more compelling and complex. I did actually care and couldn’t put it down.
But the ending was awful! Also!! To be so sex positive (even though the sex scenes were awful) and then throw that away and say that women aren’t that sexual?! WTH?!
I really enjoyed this until the ending, when it felt like she was wagging her fingers at me and going “Oooooooooooo.”
Alright, I just read the *bonus* epilogue online.

Obviously I’m biased coming into reading, but I tried to remain objective. I’ll start with compliments! Colleen Hoover definitely writes in a way that makes her book very digestible . Not necessarily talking about subject matter, but just the language she uses is easy to read making her books very quick reads. She also definitely knows how to add tension and thrill! Her twist at the end does make you question things which is kind of fun! That’s about all I have as far as compliments go lmao
Now my complaints…. I won’t be TOO heavy handed here but Jesus. This book was published in 2018 but I felt like I was reading something from 2013 wattpad most of the time. I hated literally every single character. The characterization was shallow and the relationships were shallow. The timeline didn’t make sense. Colleen told us so many things instead of opting to show us. Many details were brought up that could’ve added to the story but ultimately very much did not. Spoiler but
so yeah sorry to my best friend but this was not a good book. It was an engaging book. It was not good. I remain a coho hater.
