this is definitely added to my list of favorite books that coho has given us. samson and beyah’s relationship TORE me apart in all the right ways.
the way they describe soulmates is that the other half of your soul is being returned to you; something you’ve lost only to spend the rest of your life searching for what can make you whole again.
i think it’s easy to say that neither of them had easy childhoods, and the belief of love may as well have been shot down in a far off window in another realm. but to watch these two characters come together and find things in each other they were missing in everyone else was ugh so beautiful. i LOVED the way she wrote these two and will forever dictate her as the queen of twisting a story completely around at the last second
thank you for another couple i will sob over coho <3

Mais um para a lista de favoritos!
Em "Corações Feridos" conhecemos dois jovens, a Beyah e o Samson, que ao início parecem ser completos opostos, mas que acabam por perceber que são mais parecidos do que pensavam. Ambos são pessoas que já passaram por muito na vida e sentem-se sozinhos e guardam muitos segredos.
Após a vida de Beyah dar uma volta de 180°, ela vai passar o verão ao Texas, na casa de praia do pai com quem nunca teve muito contacto. Conhece a sua madrasta, Alana, e a filha desta, Sara.
Voltando aos nossos protagonistas, Beyah e Samson desenvolvem uma conexão incrível, mas será apenas um amor de verão?
A Colleen Hoover conseguiu surpreender-me mais uma vez e tenho mesmo de ler os outros livros da autora.
Recomendo muito este livro! Vale super a pena!

This book is EVERYTHING. Officially my new favorite. I don’t know if it’s because I related so heavily to the life experiences of the main character (our dads literally have the same name AND I’m from Kentucky, among other similarities) or because Colleen is such a talented writer, but I just loved every moment of reading this. I’d give it 10 stars if I could.

Such a heavy book. I really appreciate CoHo’s ability to write complex characters. Her main characters are rarely basic. And the stories always have a twist that hurts your heart.
This book didn’t take me through the emotions as much as her others have. But it was still good enough that I read it in 4 hours. The writing style seemed different. More telling than showing compared to some of her other books.
It seems crazy to me that two people who had a child together communicate so little. Like how did Brian go Beyah’s whole life having so rarely spoke to her mother?
I love how Beyah says exactly what she means. I love how CoHo wrote Samson’s character, how I was only a little suspicious of him with his secrets but was as resolute as Beyah that he is good.
“Sometimes I believe personalities are shaped more by damage than kindness.” I felt this. I also appreciate how Beyah has no true, fond memories of her childhood. It’s a very accurate piece to include for a child who has been through trauma.
I didn’t love how we went from a super bland sex scene to a jarring wake up. I wish there’d been more about the emotional connection since we go from that to him being arrested and we’re supposed to be in love with him and have faith in him as deeply as Beyah does. I just wish we were brought on that journey a little deeper. Able to connect with that emotion more.
Still good, but CoHo has better.

I would actually give this a 3.5. It was good but I do hold coho to a higher standard, and I wasn't the biggest fan of the plot twist. It was definitely not as intense as other books she's written, and I actually kind of liked that. I love all the characters, just think this could've been a little more detailed and longer at the end, felt kind of rushed.
