WOW!!! Well that was so utterly AMAZING... By 93%, the final piece of the puzzle slipped right into place in my head and I then knew just what the story was about to reveal... Once again, pure awesome writing Colleen Hoover. I love books like this!!!

3.5 but I liked enough of it to light the 4th star. There are so many people that loved it that maybe you should just check there reviews. I loved parts of the book but most of it I just didn't connect with so I'm not even going to review. ...more

Sometimes discovering the truth can leave you more hopeless than believing the lies…

That’s what seventeen-year-old Sky realizes after she meets Dean Holder. A guy with a reputation that rivals her own and an uncanny ability to invoke feelings in her she’s never had before. He terrifies her and captivates her all in the span of just one encounter, and something about the way he makes her feel sparks buried memories from a past that she wishes could just stay buried.

Sky struggles to keep him at a ...more

Oh. My. Heart.

This book was Sea of Tranquility Good. And that last chapter, perfect!

While this book has its moments of unreal dialogue, (where the guy who doesn't speak very much tells you everything you've ever wanted to hear) I still loved it. It wasn't overdone, simply a great balance of love, loss, and anger.

Read it, Love it, and then tell people about it! ...more

That was one of the most emotionally charged books I have ever read. Colleen Hoover, I don't even know how you managed to write it. Let alone write it so beautifully.

I don't think I have cried so much while reading something. Beautiful :) Thanks so a great read!! ...more

Dec 29, 2012 Kelster rated it it was ok

2.5 stars. Okay. I am obviously in the minority with how I felt about this book. It was kinda, a little bit, totally OTT, and it was predictable. Very early on I knew damn near EVERYTHING except how Karen fit in. I can usually deal with predictability, though, as long as I appreciate how everything unravels, but in this book I didn't feel invested enough. It seemed like some of the revelations were more for shock than to really add value to the story.

I liked the romantic side of Holder but, seri ...more

I liked it. I read it very fast because of how the author started the book with a scene from the future which created a massive need to know how it happened!!

It was very moving and it was beautiful and I liked the way it was written.

Just few things didn't make it to another star, for example

I will come back and write a better review later because that was so emotional I'm not sure I can put into word what I want to say because I want to laugh and cry at the same time. This book was an amazing rollercoaster of emotions and being a survivor I can totally get this book and thank you for writing a wonderful book! ...more

Shelves: found-myself-with-a-tear-in-my-eye, impacted-me-greatly, gritty, more-mature-than-typical-ya, new-adult, emotionally-drained

I am at a loss for words to adequately describe this poignant beautiful book. It is a hard book to read at times but worth the pain that your heart will feel at times as you enter the journey of this story. I was warned to get my box of tissues handy ( thanks for the advice Shannon!) and thankfully I took the advice to heart because they came in handy more than once.
Don't let the heavy subject matter steer you away from this book. Thank you Christine for the recommendation! ...more

This is so far the best I've read. I LIVE it.

“I know exactly what he’s feeling, because our pain is shared now. Whatever he goes through, I feel. Whatever I go through, he feels. It’s what happens when two people become one: they no longer only share love. They also share all of the pain, heartache, sorrow, and grief.” ...more
