I really loved this one!!
Colleen Hoover is generally not my jam - her books are too lovey dovey for me. Verity however, is a thriller masterpiece. I was hooked the whole time. THE WHOLE TIME. also am I in love with Jeremy now? I think I might be. 

Great plot twist at the end. 

Warning though. If explicit graphic sexual content is not your fortè; this is not the book for you sis. Put the book down and run away. 

4.5 stars.

5.0

This book made me question everything. The plot twist blew my mind and I found myself thinking, "what the heck did I just read?" I totally mean this in the best way. I felt uneasy during the whole book and finished it in two days. This book is nothing but dark and twisty and right up my alley of mystery/thriller. I honestly thought about the ending for days lol
