Debo confesar que el libro es adictivo y te mantiene en suspenso todo el tiempo. La autora maneja muy bien la dosificación de información, la velocidad de la narración y los cliffhanger. Destacable las sensaciones de horror que te hace sentir en algunas partes del diario de Verity, llega a odiar y a sentir asco por esta mujer. El romance entre los protagonistas no es el mejor pero me gustó. Después de leer las escenas de sexo de Ali Hazelwood, creo que a Hoover le hace falta un poco más de calor en ellas.
El libro se iba a llevar cuatro estrellas por lo entretenido, pero entonces llegó el final y me desinflé. El punto de giro en esta ocasión envés de ayudar le quitó puntos a la trama.

Review: 4,5 ster ⭐️
Oke, Colleen Hoover is nu dus écht mijn favoriete auteur!
Dit boek was een rollercoaster and I loved it!
Van spanning tot romantiek tot psychische spelletjes. Ik zat op het puntjes van mijn stoel! Hoover weet op de juiste manier te toveren met woorden, dat een ingewikkeld verhaal makkelijk te lezen is. Echt briljant.
En de plottwist krijgt al helemaal 100 punten!
Soms kon ik mij alleen niet zo goed vinden in de keuzes in de hoofdpersoon maakte.
Maar we doen allemaal gekke dingen om te kunnen overleven

What the fuck. I have so many thoughts, feelings and opinions on this book.
I literally devoured it because I could not stop thinking about what was gonna happen next. I had my hand over my mouth jaw on the floor multiple times.
I was fully in the manuscript from the autobiography and I was like oh my God she is so fucking terrible the worst of the worst. THEN THE LETTER!? oh my God my thoughts shifted changed. at the end it was like which truth is real bitch I don’t fucking know???? What did I just go through????? Was she just trying to cover it all up at the end??? like what the actual fuck?
THEN HOMEGIRL LOWEN is just like oh I’m not going to share any of the contents of this letter or keep this for future, or ask Jeremy. I am just going to pretend like this never happened and move on and not know if he actually attempted to murder his previous wife twice before we murdered her together or not. I’m just gonna live the rest of my life and have his child not knowing that information? I’m sorry Miss LOWEN you are crazy I could simply never.

He devorado este libro, desde que lo cogí ayer hasta hoy no he podido parar de leerlo porque estaba preguntándome qué iba a pasar. Realmente no es el libro de mi vida y el final me ha parecido un poco rebuscado, pero me gusta mucho el ritmo que lleva la autora y el cliché de la mujer en el ático, así que por eso la puntuación.
Riveting and suspenseful, this dark story kept the reader uncertain about what the truth was the whole time. This would have been a 5 star read for me except for the ending. Seeing inside the mind of someone with such dark thoughts was fascinating, and the depth to which this side of the character was explored was extremely well done.
Spoiler
They made Verity out to be the villain the entire book, except for the last letter, in which some doubt was planted in the reader's mind. But I really was expecting a big twist to occur, such as Jeremy being evil all along and him being a danger to Lowen or Crew being a child psychopath. This book really seemed to NEED huge twist like that, and I was disappointed that it did not deliver.
I wanted to see what all the fuss was about with Colleen Hoover and I understand this is a departure from her typical work so maybe I should go read one of them. However, based on this book I would rather stick with Emily Henry. There was just something so off putting about all the characters and so many questions I didn’t have answers to that never got answered. I also wasn’t a huge fan of the kind of create your own ending that it had as I’m generally never a fan of them. I wanna know how it ends, black and white, happy or sad. I don’t want to ponder it… because frankly I won’t. Anyway the book certainly wasn’t bad but I feel like it could have been so much more. And I didn’t fall in love with any of the characters so it was hard to celebrate their wins or mourn their losses like I think you were supposed to.
ETA: I found out that there was an additional chapter to this book so I went and found it to read (why it's not in every book copy is beyond me - I know it was published after the book was but my book came out late enough it could have been in there). I think the additional chapter actually made me dislike the book more. I thought it was a total departure from the Jeremy that CoHo had been building up for the entire book. He was unhinged, listless, and rash with his decisions. A person who runs multiple times a day to get the guilt of a murder off his hands doesn't also seem like the person who would turn around and murder someone else in the blink of an eye. I feel like CoHo was just sitting there one day, fuming that no one was understanding that Verity's letter was the truth, mumbling to herself "Verity means truth for fuck's sake" and turned around and belted out this chapter. I'm gonna reduce my rating down to 2 stars because after thinking about it for a while, it's been reduced to that.

The ending just lacked. I feel like she could have dropped the last chapter and switched the ending up slightly and it would have been 5 stars for me. The ending just didn’t match with the rest of the book and seemed rushed to me? It didn’t seem like she had the same energy in the end of the book and just wanted it to be done. The good parts were great but the ending really knocked the overall book down.
