Slammed by Colleen Hoover
4.0

Rating: 4.5

I definitely enjoyed this read, it was quick and light even with a lot of the serious topics within the plot.

I did guess the first plot twist mainly because I’ve seen it before and with the way the blurb was written I had my suspicions but it was still done so well and it wasn’t predictable in the overall sense. Plus they way it was handled felt natural and honest.

The main reason I dropped .5 (originally 1) is because there were several scenes where her attitude and behaviour became far too selfish and immature for my liking. I empathise to a degree but certain things I just couldn’t see past... BUT, I do think this was resolved more in the latter part of the book, and I definitely felt myself warming to her again and how the situation was handled. It showed development for her character and general growth throughout the story, which I think is good.

I will say that I do wish we got just a little more romance, even though I understand why we didn’t... but my heart needed more to be that little extra bit satisfied with the overall story. It wasn’t as mature as I expected it to be, both from the romance and her maturity overall but it was still a fun and quick read.
