It Starts with Us by Colleen Hoover

Only show reviews with written explanations

For a sequel of a book that was amazing on its own, I found it hard to keep reading this book. I must say, wanting to know what happens in the end of the book drove me to keep reading. Pleasantly surprised by the ending of the book. It felt mellow for eighty percent of the book, and the other twenty was pretty quality content. I didn’t love it, but I didn’t dislike it! It was a good read.

CoHo will forever have the most readable books to me. I finish them in less than 24 hours and ignore all of my life’s responsibilities. I was tempted to give this one 3 stars, but I compared it to the first. And the ending of It Ends With Us will forever have my heart. It was the book that got me back into reading. I do feel like this book was unnecessary but I also know CoHo’s hand was a little forced to do this one by fans. It was still done well.

I absolutely LOVED the story of Atlas and Josh. It was the unexpected twist that I didn’t know I needed.

P.S. I wish I could give half stars because it’s more of a 3.5.

I can’t tell you how important it is for young women to read these books. It so accurately depicts how an abusive relationship can carry through even after it’s over, especially with children involved.
