I stumbled upon this book because of I was kinda mesmerized by the ratings. It was 4.7s at that time. And it's just a great wow for me. How could a book got that ratings? Even great novels I've read aren't getting such a high ratings. Then I decided to read the book.
I enjoyed a great time reading this book, the narrative is flowing flawlessly. The writing is almost perfect and I love the style. However, at the beginning of this book, I want to give it up. This book is just too vulgar and too erotic for me. The scenes are all about kissing and embracing, and I find it kinda disturbing me. Is this why this book got that such ratings? But I insisted on reading, I want a new adventure by reading a book I didn't seem to like.
Time after time, I'm slowly getting to enjoy the romance. And it's a real sweet thing in life. And then clue after clue, the surprise came. And I really wanted to finish this damn awesome book in that moment, I didn't want to put it down.
The moral of the story is so deep and well-touching. Think deeply and wisely, be sober when acting. What you think other person is feeling is generally wrong, and it's unlikely be okay. Instead of grieving about the past, be grateful about what you have in the moment. Feel love. Sometimes ugly truth is far better for your feeling than a white lie. But what is once a lie, can be a truth if you look on all sides of it, the good and the bad. And always think mindfully, are you really concerning the bad sides of things so badly that they are completely ruining the good sides?
And I'm speechless, because this book is so beautiful.

OH MY GOSH! At first I was like ok this is a cute book kind of makes me reminisce on the days of high school, it even took me a little bit to get into the book, and then the TWIST! Looking back all the little clues I should have guessed it but I didn’t and wow. I was crying, ACTUAL TEARS, by the end of the book. I can not wait to read the 2nd book! Colleen Hoover, I can not express how much I love your work

Me gusto, pero sinceramente esperaba algo más emocionante por parte de Colleen; es decir, el libro tiene una trama buenísima, y por si solo esta muy bien escrito, desarrollado, etc. Pero no me atrapó como Ugly love y Never Never, esos libros los leí de corrido en un día, y este fue en decepcionantes tres días. Me aburría, no de la clase de aburrimiento insoportable, podía seguir leyendo y estar intrigada, pero no fue nada shockeante (?). Todo lo que pasó fue, por lo menos en mi experiencia, bastante predecible.
No obstante, sigo apoyando todos los libros de Hoover, y espero leer los dos que me quedan.

I enjoyed reading this book, I liked the writing and the characters. But the second half of the book was just a wee bit crazy for me. I am aware that NA comes with its drama but this was just a little bit too much in my opinion. Also I wasn't a big fan of the sex after those traumatic experiences. Even if they weren't recent. It was so cringe-worthy.

Book number 2 for me on the list of NA books that Gisbelle recommended me.
And what a wonderful book it was. I loved both of the characters, they were just perfect together, I loved how they teased each other, their kisses were sweet and their love amazing.
I was so sad for Sky when she found out about her past, how broken she was, and how it affect Holder, and how he stuck with her and held her.
I would say more, but words cannot describe this book. It is just perfect.
I will be sure to read the next book. (I bought it recently online, so it will be here in a few days.)
