It Starts with Us by Colleen Hoover

3.0

I was quite apprehensive for this book. I think I found it a little boring, especially compared to It Ends With Us, but that’s not a bad thing in the context on Lily’s story. She deserves to feel safe, secure, loved and drama free. Initially I was a little annoyed that the ending was wrapped up in a bow, but honestly, I think it was the perfect way to end Lily’s story. She has already been through so much, and finding love with Atlas and being happy and having things calmer with Ryle was exactly what I wanted for her. Her story really touched me as a survivor of domestic abuse and her strength will be in the back of my mind for a long time!! I do feel the book was quite rushed and wasn’t developed as well as it could have been though.
