This book should have had a few trigger warnings in the beginning... I went into it blind thinking it was a "cute romance" and it absolutely was not and i would not have picked this book up if I knew some of the topics it covered. At the end of the book, well after the stor  ends there are some hotlines referenced but thats far too late

I didn't cry! I was amazed at all the different twist and turns Colleen brought me through! I just love her prose. It flows so beautifully, like rushing water. Oh no, I did not just make that cheesy comparison. But I did, so deal with it:) Definitely enjoyed this more than Slammed, but Maybe Someday is still my favorite Hoover book! Come on, no one can beat Ridge (although I do love Holder, Miles, and Owen. Just not my type)!

I liked the book, but had started getting bored with just the story of the two main characters, Sky and Holder, but all of the sudden, the book started taking some huge twists and turns and thoroughly sucked me in. Colleen Hoover does it again with her great story telling and unexpected twists. Interested to see what the next book in this series covers.

Such a great sad amazing story

The beginning part with Holder was creepy and really upset me... This book made me very uncomfortable... But it was like a train wreck, I had to keep reading.

If I could give this book more than 5 stars, I would without question.

What would you do if the life you thought you were living was not the life you were living? That the reason you have these thought, lack of feelings, and self doubt was really because of the double life you were forced to live?

Sky, is probably the bravest character I’ve ever read about.

This was soooooooo unexpected and might be my favorite of hers. At the start I really thought I was going to be able to predict everything, but it surprised me over and over.

I’m a bit unsettled about Six’s character. I was waiting for a big reveal related to her at the end. It felt kind of strange that she was only at the beginning as a friend and then didn’t really play a significant role the rest of the book, like… what’s the point? I wanted it to say she was like an undercover CIA agent or something lol

mais c’est horrible wsh

I'm not giving 5 stars because when Holder started to be mad about Sky's bracelet at the caferia and when he explained himself later on, I knew he and Lesslie were the boy and the girl from the flashback. But apart from this, the story is amazing. I really loved it and I'm about to start Losing Hope, hoping I won't be disappointed.
