Colleen Hoover books always grip me, and for that reason, I have to rate it highly. However, I don’t think this was her strongest work. It felt like something was missing.
I really loved the concept of confessions. I like how that linked to the end with his confession never being said BUT I also don’t think Auburn deserves having someone in her life who is hiding that from her and who is hiding the fact he’s wanted her for ages.
I really like the use of art throughout the book. I’m not artistic in the slightest and it’s something I cannot relate to yet I really enjoyed it. It brought so much depth to the character and so much meaning to the story. I loved the character Harrison- very underrated. A fantastic subplot character.
I think the justice was fantastic but I think I wanted a bigger downfall. For example, Lydia hating him and being a bigger part of Auburns life.
I love love love Owen. A fantastic well developed character. I really enjoyed him saving her and her saving him in multiple different ways. I liked the significance of everything in the story and how it all links together. It was deep, and it has raw story lines. The addiction story line was significant to add and emotional.
I really enjoyed the layers of this book. But it was a slow burner, I wish there was one more chapter at the end to show their life together with the son moving in or Harrison getting with her roommate or at least hearing about the story from them both as Owen never went back to fill him in. Idk there was just something missing but great book.
