once again, miss colleen hoover did not fail me.
now here’s a funny little story time that one asked for. so originally i was not going to by this book, but my mom wanted to stop at barnes & noble to read some home magazines. i swore to myself that i would not buy anything bc i literally hate spending money, i spend way too much on books, & i just bought a $59 phone case. but after being there for a little while i got bored & decided to just see if they had any miss hoover, specifically ugly love bc that wasn’t next colleen book on my tbr, so i went to the romance section but they had NO miss hoover books, like they had some but only like 5. i was sad but expected it bc like yeah she’s been popular lately so i shrugged & headed back to my mom. BUT on my walk back i saw a WHOLE TABLE full of my girl, colleen hoover. so i picked up ugly love & went back to my mom. tbh idk what i was gon do with it bc ik i didn’t want to read it bc i’d like it and then i’d HAVE to buy it which was a no go. but once again i got bored & just started reading & ofc i was instantly hooked. by the time we were ready to go i was already on chapter 5 & was gonna buy it bc, obviously, i was already on chapter 5 & i couldn’t put it back now. and my mom was like “okay i’ll buy it for you.” like AGSJBDAIEBW literally a W day.
also, don’t hate me but i lowkey wanted miles & tate to not end up together. like imma sucker for sad endings okay?
