Lily, the main character of this book decides to move to boston to start her life over on fresh terms, there she meets a man, he’s charismatic, polite and incredibly handsome. however some things are just too good to be true.
Lily is faced with some heart breaking decisions and awful situations which made my heart shatter. the sympathy i felt for the characters was unmeasurable. i feel that this book is one that people should read purely for the meaning and to learn about the difficulties of relationships.
the characters were well-written and i must say my favourite is by far atlas, literally the sweetest man, im sure many people would agree. (i also tried the cookie trick and they were drool worthy istg haha).
this book had some deeply disturbing parts and i wish i could forget about a lot of it because it was just so creepy and strange.

It Ends With Us is a huge emotional rollercoaster. It made me laugh, it made me cry and sometimes both at once. Like legit BIG, FAT TEARS.
I thought that it was like any other cheesy romance novel but i was totally wrong. It Ends With Us is phenomenal! It makes you fall in love, breaks your heart and forces you to reconsider your prejudged ideas about domestic abuse and violence.
(spoilers)
I absolutely loved Ryle. (Initially obv) The very first scene in the book, on the roof.. it was my absolute favourite.
The more I got into the story- the more his character grew on me until.. the incident occurred. I mean obv a toxic relationship is a straight up NO.
I mean I've never felt this conflicted over a character before.
My most fav character in the book was Atlas. His story gutted me at times. I initially didn't want his entry coz i was already in love with Ryle so he felt like a threat but.. what he and Lily had was so real and i was blown away by his commitment. Lily was a really strong character throughout the book and I loved her.
The part I didn't like was- the diary entries addressed to Ellen DeGeneres, coz they just felt so cringe & honestly I wanted to skip those.
