heartscontent's review against another edition
5.0
Some books make you laugh at the sheer hilariousness of words , some make you cry because of the sorrow those words bring.
But some? They break your heart with the truth they reveal.
Hopeless is such a book. It'll break your heart, and heal it.
It's make you laugh, cry and swoon. It'll also make you realize that you should be happy for what you have...and sometimes only when you read books like this you realize how lucky you are when you're surrounded with people who think you're special.
But some people face crap in life. It doesn't make them any less special.
But these special people are the ones that learn to laugh despite the horrors of the past, that learn to see through the tears in their eyes, that learn to live despite the downright crappy moments of life.
These people? Yeah, they're among us. If you find them, help them. If they don't need you're help, just stay with them. They get lonely too. They need to be loved too.
But they are still special, despite their moments of feeling...Hopeless.
Highly recommend it.
Five stars.

Zapomniałam jak bardzo bolesna była ta książka. Ale jak zawsze Colleen umie opisać historię w piękny sposób.
„Jedną z rzeczy, za które kocham książki, jest to, że dzieli się w nich ludzkie losy na rozdziały. To niesamowite, ponieważ nie można tego zrobić w prawdziwym życiu. Nie możesz skończysz rozdziału, potem opuścić wydarzenie, którego nie chcesz przeżywać i otworzyć na rozdziale, które lepiej pasuje do twojego nastroju. Życia nie można podzielić na rozdziały, tylko co najwyżej na minuty. Wydarzenia z twojego życia są zaklęte w kolejnych minutach. Nie ma tu pustych kartek ani końców rozdziałów. Niezależnie od tego, co się dzieje, życie toczy się dalej, czy ci się to podoba, czy nie, i nigdy nie możesz pozwolić sobie na to, żeby się zatrzymać i po prostu złapać oddech.”

I love every book I’ve read so far by Colleen Hoover. I love her writing style. I love the build up in the books leading to a twist. This book is by far one of if not my favourite book written by her. Once I picked it up I found it really hard to put down and when I wasn’t reading this book I was thinking about it. As soon as I finished Hopeless I went straight on to read Losing Hope. A beautifully written tragic story. 100% recommend.

I feel that a 3* rating may be a little harsh for this novel, but I also can't bring myself to award a full 4* rating. It was a good YA novel and it tackled some really ugly events very well, but there was something a little too... neat about it.
I liked Sky. I loved her brutal and horrific story and how she reacted to it. I loved seeing it knock her down and then watching as she built herself back up. It was genuinely a horrific story for Sky and it was really emotional to read.
Yeah, yeah, you guessed that there is a however.
However, everything was so neat and tidy. Every character was related, every storyline intersected. Every event had a ripple effect which caused or impacted other plots. I didn't feel that it needed this level of complexity. It made it feel too overplanned and not like a natural progression of the story.
I didn't take to Holder either. I felt that he was written to make me swoon. He said the right things and he acted the right way, but he felt like I was reading a character that I was supposed to fall in love with. He wasn't 'natural'. I know I kind of prefer the gruffer, manly men in my romance novels. The type who hate crying women and usually say 'Suck it up!' rather than give these long, poetic speeches about the only way being up. When I was 18 I didn't hear many boys talking like Holder, even now I still don't. I guess that made me feel like I was reading a romance novel, and not experiecing it.
I didn't fall into the story like I did with 'It Ends with Us' or 'Ugly Love'. I felt like I was reading a story.
I just wanted it to all be bit looser and more natural, then it would have had the 4* rating. But still a really good read.

First book I ever read willingly and it was an easy story to kick off my reading journey. I actually enjoyed this one.
