I have read all of Colleen Hoovers most popular books, including Verity, It Ends/It Starts With Us, Ugly Love, November 9, and Hopeless, and this one is my absolute favorite. I started reading this book knowing absolutely nothing about is and I am so glad I did. I finished it so fast because I genuinely could not put it down. The prologue already had me in tears and Auburn immediately had my heart (I am also a hairdresser so I connected with her on that level too). This book deserves so much more attention, I am absolutely in love with it. This will probably be my favorite book for a long time.

Eu amo reler livros, ainda mais os da Colleen. Eles sempre me fazem sentir todas as emoções possíveis, mesmo não sendo a primeira vez que leio.

 Confesse me faz sentir um misto de ódio, tristeza e um pouco de amor/carinho. Basicamente, sofrimento, como todos da CoHo. Acho importante dizer o quanto esse livro me inspira 

Spoiler

(as artes no final do livro são simplesmente tudo)

.
 É definitivamente um livro que eu não me importaria de reler mais vezes.
