I've read three of Colleen Hoover's books, incluing this one, and none of them had exceptional writing or strong three-dimensional characters. It is her depiction of complex and impactful stories that make her books so good, and It Ends With Us is no exception.
When people talk about this book, its always about Atlas. But its so much more than that. It Ends With Us shines light on abusive relationships and being homeless in a way that the reader understands what it's like to suffer from those situations – something many authors fail to do. Its a very sad and emotional story that made me cry more times than I care to admit.
While I am not particularly fond about Hoover's writing, this is her best work. This book is incredibly quotable. There are so many quotes that relate to human nature and relationships that really make you think and wanna cry.
Focusing on the characters, I loved all but one. Atlas is, of course, the most perfect man ever. I can't wait to explore more about his current character in the next novel. I really liked Marshall. He brought in some desperately needed comedic relief. But my favourite, probably in the whole book, is Allysa. She's quirky and honest and an incredible friend. Her and Lily's bond melts my heart.

If you want to feel every emotion you could possibly feel, read this book. Colleen Hoover is brilliant, and I know from reading, this book was incredibly hard for her to write. I’m so thankful she did though. There were moments where I didn’t know if I could keep reading because this book took so much out of me. But when a book can do that, you know the author did something right.

It was so bad that I actually had to physically barf al over it
I am numb.
I was about half way through unsure where the two love arcs were going to go and then they ate lasagna. (For those who read it you understand). The whole time I read this book I had the song "Older by Sasha Sloan" playing in my head.
I have been guilty in the past of believing that if a woman wanted to leave an unhealthy relationship she could. Buts its not as simple. You cant just turn your feelings towards someone off.
I was a firm Atlas stan from the very beginning. His story touched me. I will never see Ellen or Dory the same way. They will forever be associated with him.
Lily is such a strong woman. She faced heavy battles that threatened to knock her down many times. Her grit is so admirable. I hope to be like her one day.
I sobbed at the ending. Lily and Ryle... i have no words. I cant process anything. I wish there was a way to erase the consequences in this book but life is messy. This book is messy and raw and just like real life.
In real life even the best people can end up breaking our hearts
