Colleen Hoover really has a way of captivating the reader's attention. I've been having a little bit of a hard time keeping my focus and not feeling bored while reading but this kept me interested all the way through. There aren't a lot of characters or settings but that's not a bad thing in this case because it allows us to get deeper into the main storyline. I kind of wish we got to know the main female character a little bit better besides her relationships.

This is my new favourite book. 
Everything made sense, the ending was just perfect and you could really experience the growth of the characters. The story gave me butterflies as well as several streams of tears running down my face. Colleen Hoover never disappoints. Hopefully, I‘ll always remember my first time reading this.
