Hopeless by Colleen Hoover
4.0
I LOVE LOVE LOVE Colleen's books
Do they feel abit confusing sometimes? Yes they do
Can the writing be a little better? Yes it could
But My God the story redeems anything! And what a story this was!
This is not your typical boy meets girl love story, it is not a love at first sight also
So if you are reading it for that or for spice then stop
This is a much deeper story, a psychological telling of childhood trauma
I would have given it 5 stars if not for a couple of things
1- the ages, i find it difficult to believe that 5 year old children could make a life long friendship. I mean would you pine for someone you were friends with for a couple of years at age 3 then have not seen them for nearly 14 years?!
2- the other is the guilt syndrome Holden obviously have. Did he really love Sky or was it his guilt that manifested this love?
Other than that it was an amazing book as usuall
