At first, I did not like this book. It was boring to me and I just did not like it. But as it went on and I got closer to the end the book go much better. I didn’t cry like I’ve seen people do though. I also didn’t connect with the characters. It was still a good, but you may have to push through the first 100 pages until you really like it. Like any Colleen Hoover book look at the trigger warning before reading.

It's definitely one of my most favourite books by Colleen Hoover. This book Emotional, funny, and amazing-
The plot of the book is really interesting and the characters are exceptional!
The story is just so heartbreaking and yet it ends in the best way possible. I loved being hit with dramatic turns & tensions arising. This book took me through all the range of emotions. A true *emotional rollercoaster*

The idea of the male & female protagonist getting along entirely late in the book is what I liked the most. Ledger has already started to grow feelings for Kenna close to the middle of the book but he never expressed it until he truly got to know her.

Kenna's backstory absolutely shattered my heart I mean I've lost count of how many times i cried-
Kenna's determination to reunite with her daughter was amazing but Ledger just stole the show. His character is really well written. He was put in such a difficult position yet he dealt with it really well.

This book will make you see that there can be so many sides to a story, so many different ways of looking at it. I love these kinds of books where the story balances on an edge, tugging your heartstrings one way, then another.

There are so many amazing quotes throughout this book. The ending was *chef's kiss* 
I prolly would've completed this book in just one day instead of two if I didn't have assignments.💀
I wish I could read it for the first time again-😩

Possible trigger warnings for this book : suicidal thoughts, detailed scenes of a car accident, grief of losing a loved one, child neglect, parent incarceration. 

This book was so sad at several points but honestly such a good read. I want to start by saying I went through a million and one emotions during this book and that’s how I know Colleen Hoover’s writing is phenomenal! I began this book hating Kenna. And I was so angry at her but I wanted to like her. As the book went on, I realized that Kenna was actually such an incredible character. She was so mature in so many ways. And I am ended the book loving her and was so happy she got a happy ending. Ledger was amazing and perfect for Kenna. I loved him. I am also so happy she was allowed in Diem’s life in the end. Diem deserves a mother who loves her and only wants the best for her in her life. And after everything she’s been through, Kenna deserves to be able to spend time with her daughter. The amount of character development in this book was crazy. I loved every single character of this book, including the small ones. I feel like nothing I say could do this book enough justice. If you had any doubt about reading Reminders of Him and are reading this review (even though I gave spoilers) READ it! Ps. Is that a fucking pigeon?!
