Not my fave CoHo book. But still wasn’t expecting some of the things that happened!

Okay, this novel really surprised me. Of all the Colleen Hoover books Verity is still my favorite - I love being left in bewilderment with a good twist.
Layla hooked me pretty quickly but lost me when it introduced some paranormal elements (I went into this book blindly). It piqued my interest but I wasn't sure the direction this story was headed. I made many predictions in my mind but the ending was so very different than anything I was expecting! (Again, love a good twist). I finished this book in 2 days because I was so invested in this story.
It may not be everyone's cup of tea but it was a different than any book I've read before which was a pleasant change.
