I wasn't fully in love with the main characters. They seemed a little too juvenile for me.  The book had some tragic moments in them that were surprising, but honestly not my favorite Colleen Hoover book. I don't think I really felt the full connection the book was trying to project.

Colleen Hoover writing an almost non-toxic male lead? Someone call the BBC. Heavy on that 'almost' though. A good book. It had very cute, summery romance vibes, and if I had to guess I'd definitely say this would be a good beach read. Maybe I should've saved this one for the summer.

This was my second Colleen Hoover book, and I was not disappointed. It was so easy to read, and once the climax began, it was hard to put down. I expected to cry, but I didn’t; that’s fine, though. The ending was satisfying, and I found myself quickly falling in love with the characters. My favorites were Sara and Pepper Jack Cheese (I’m such a sucker for animals). The plot twist was unexpected for me but that’s Colleen for you 😂.

I also really liked that she showed the complexity of Samson’s life and the motives for his crimes

Side note: the cover is absolutely gorgeous; props to Murphy Rae.

Rating Colleen's books is becoming kind of repetitive. It doesn't matter what the book is about, I can never rate it less than 5 stars. So far, not disappointed.

I loved this book and it's characters. Beyah and Samson are incredibly resilient and able to take care of themselves, like they did their entire lifes until they met eachother. Then, for the first time in their lives they found someone who understood what that was like. When they found each other, they found a completely different world when everything did not look so dark afterall.

This is a story about strength, resilience, self care... but most important about love. Not that kind of love that is annoying and childish (despite their ages), but a dipper kind of love. The love that only to people who experience the same things can understand. Anyone else would think that Beyah and Samson are "broken" but, in fact, they are just the products of a terrible and lonely childhood.

I would read anything written by Colleen Hoover... even her shopping list.
