absolutely adored it, couldn’t put it down!!! definitely, one of the most messed up CoHo books but liked the subplot. this book had me screaming, crying, loving, everything. at one point the plot twists just didn't stop coming, like literally every other page there would be a pot twistGraphic: Death, Emotional abuse, Incest, Suicide, Gaslighting, Kidnapping, Pedophilia, Physical abuse, Rape, Sexual assault, Child abuse, Grief, and Blood

i honestly don't even want to go into it because it's mostly the usual stuff wrong with her books - problematic display of relationships and mental illnesses, toxic masculinity, token non-straight characters, her trying to be funny but failing, the mc being not like other girls etc. i know it's one of her earlier works but it's honestly scary how she hasn't changed/learned from some things. and can you imagine this being marketed as a young adult novel?? with very triggering sexual content, abuse, suicide etc.?? reading this was a roller coaster of being weirded out, cringing, rolling my eyes and just getting angry. especially the last quarter is just pure trauma porn and i almost dnf'ed it. wtf colleen.
do not recommend. 🙃

Loved this book, this book kept me going
It’s got a emotional back story on it, however for me, I have cried to Colleen hoover books more than this one for some reason
The topics was very emotional and I don’t know why I only shedded a year, but nether the less it was a amazing book, amazing story, so sad and you won’t put it down until u have finished reading
I loved the ending of this
And I love dean holder…
I also love sky
I hate the dad( for very obvious reasoning)
And, I can’t lie, I do love Karen , even if she did
Spoiler
kidnap sky, it was to protect her from her father.Although In the middle, we kind of forgot about our best friends in the book
