Despite being a big Colleen Hoover fan by this point, I was least excited to pick up 'Slammed.' This is due to the fact I heard it was really sad and depressing... also that it was not Colleen's best work.
So when we decided to read it for book club, I was relieved because if I didn't like it, at least I would have other people to talk to. Thankfully, however, 'Slammed' did not disappoint.
I'm not going to beat around the bush and avoid the elephant in the room ...more

I can't believe it took me so long to read a Colleen Hoover book. This book was a whirlwind of emotions; it broke my heart so many times I lost count. The characters have so much going for them, they all have their own lives and they are all very dynamic in unique ways. I don't know what to say about this book other than I loved it and it was wonderful and I think I may even make my boyfriend read it to get his perspective on it.

I could not put this book down at all! I read it in almost 1 sitting, if not for the fact I had to go to bed I would have finished it in a sitting.
I don't think the characters are amazing or the plot is exceptional but there is something about this book that grips your heart. The circumstances the characters were facing & how they handled it (good or bad) were all so real & raw.
I loved the poetry & yes you might tear up more than abit. Can't wait to read the sequel! ...more

É engraçado que só depois de ler este livro é que eu realmente sei que nota em de das ao "Maybe Someday", pela mesma autora.
Este não é, nem de perto nem de longe, o melhor livro da autora... Mas também não é o pior, na minha opinião.
Não gostei muito do casal mas apreciei, como sempre, os tópicos retratados neste livro (poesia, "amor proibido", família, doença...)
Achei um pouco previsivel e dramático demais, mesmo tendo em conta os tópicos temáticos da leitura. As personagens não são as piores da ...more

So far, I have loved everything Colleen Hoover. I loved both Lake & Will, however this was pretty much insta-love which may push away some readers. Both characters have had to deal with a lot and it was easy to sympathize with all characters.
Insta-love aside, I did love this book and will definitely be reading the rest of the trilogy.
