Okay okay, I think this is my favorite CoHo book. I love Auburn, I love her story and I love Owen, especially them together. I hate Trey! What a disgusting character. There are so many aspects of this book that took me by surprise. A beautiful story with twists, heartbreak, anger, so many emotions. I’ve never come across a book that is like this. It’s so cool that Colleen used real confessions from readers and she had an artist create Owen’s paintings. Those two aspects made the book feel more real and interesting. I really really really love this book!

This was the first collen hoover book I ever read and I hope it will be the last. The only reason I actually finished this is because I was buddy reading it with a friends and she needed to finish this book to reach er yearly reading goal. I hated all the characters and it was so incredibly boring that I sometimes chose to do absolutely nothing over trying to finish this book. I wish the book hadn’t added actual photos of Owen’s art, because then I could’ve at least imagined that he was a good artist. I thought the sex scenes would’ve at least been kinda decently written, since collen hoover is known to have a lot of sex in her books, but even the scenes where both characters gave consent, it seemed like I was reading a non consensual sex scene. I hated this book deeply and it showed me how little i could care about a story.

Not bad but I felt like this was a combination of It Ends With Us and Reminders of Him. Too many similarities and the ending was very abrupt. Lots of build up and then bam, problems all resolved and a happy ending that just seemed too good to be true/too far-fetched. Not a bad story, just not my favorite.
