This book was okay and far from my favourite. I did not mind the story line but again with a lot of Colleen Hoover books you need to look at the trigger warnings or they should be written in the book.

Give Into Your Heart

Midway through I realized that I was going to love this book and it would likely break your heart. Having just finished It sends With Us, I don’t know if I was ready for another commentary on the plight of the unseen in our society. Yet it popped up in my feed and I was hooked. I knew from Beyah might break my heart with all her strength and pain and determination and loneliness. I just didn’t know how much.

Beyah finally has an option yet she’s too guarded and scarred to see the incredible door that has been opened. She is wary of everything and everyone even her eternally good nature stepsister or her loving yet bewildered father. She meets Sampson who has more secrets than Beyah and she knows that he too is damaged.

Their summer love story is filled with the hope of summer, the ache of knowing fall is around the corner, and the weight of decision that seem monumental.

Hoover is good at an ending. She gives us a twist but also gives us a resolution. She gives us hope like a trusting puppy who knows she’ll be back to home base even if you’re a little banged up getting there.

I wasnt really sure where this one was going, and I honestly wasnt expecting the ending to be what it was. I loved the summer beachy feel and thought it really did great with exploring jumping to conclusions to quickly.

Typical Colleen Hoover love story. Didn’t do anything that crazy or original for me. The twist at the end was pretty easy to see coming but I did enjoy reading it and rushed through the ending. Overall not bad, not great.

I loved this. It has become my favourite Colleen Hoover. 

I enjoyed the story and the characters and it wasn’t as icky as I found some of her others.
