I am absolutely in love with this book. The poems are so beautiful. And I am not a big fan of poems, but this book has changed my mind.

I agree! I always say two things to people whom I recommend this book to. First, you will fall in love with the book. And second, if you think you didn't fall in love with the book and the story itself, then, you will surely fall in love with the poetry inside. :)
Yes :) I was a bit worry at first that I wouldn't understand the book and wouldn't enjoy it because of the poems. But I was hooked since the first page. I read and finished the same day :)
A book that totally blew my heart away. I couldn't get over it until now. :)

Which poem in the book you guys like the best? I like The Blue Sweater :) Sweet and sad at the same time.
:) I'm reading book 2 now... so far, no poem yet :(
excellent question... i was reading it again just now and my eyes started to water again... i like all of them... =)
I like the poem, "Lake". I really find it very romantic. Oh, Gisbelle! Another favorite poem of mine is from book two! Hahaha! You're gonna read it soon. ;)

every poem was touching... so i'm sure i'm not indecisive... maybe greedy? ;)

yea, i agree since i like (view spoiler)
I want to read the second one.. but I think it would be a huge cliffhanger.

Hahaha! Yes, yes! ;) I read the books twice now already.
So there will be book 3?
Beatrice wrote: "I want to read the second one.. but I think it would be a huge cliffhanger."Oh, you would enjoy it! Trust me! You'll be left happy and satisfied. But I am really looking forward to book three. ;)
Gisbelle wrote: "So there will be book 3?"yep! Colleen Hoover is still writing it though. :)
Beatrice wrote: "I want to read the second one.. but I think it would be a huge cliffhanger."not really... =) that's what i like about her books... in itself the story is somewhat finished but you get curious as to what happened after so you read the next book then that in itself also the story seems somewhat done but you can't let go of the characters so you wait for book 3... did i make sense?

I know what you mean! The other books are just like bonuses. I've very happy she doesn't seem to be fond of cliffhangers.. haha!
@Angel - Have you read the first chapters of her third book??
yes. :) I'll read it probably on Christmas break (so there will be no distraction).
Jan Bethel wrote: "@Angel - Have you read the first chapters of her third book??"is it Will's POV? that's the one i've read.
Happy to hear that guys :) I'll try to finish book 2 as soon as I am free from work :)

me too... Will and Lake are very loveable characters... =)
@Angel - So True! :)
@Angel - I keep missing them that I end up re-reading the books! hahaha!
I love the story ! Heart warming and heart breaking at the same time !
I loved it too, Melodie, but not book 2 :)
Love every stories in the book
i just finished this and I loved it. ^^,i just wish Will and Lake get to continue where they left off on Point of Retreat.
There is going to be a 3rd book ;)
i just heard about it now. ^^,so basically there is more!
good to hear then. :)
I loved book 1, but not much when it comes to book 2. I am going to read book 3 anyway. And hope it is going to be a good one :)
Is Slammed better than Hopeless?
Much better :D I loved it so much!
Would you categorize it as a Young Adult book (and by YA I mean ages 13-16)?
Actually, the book is clean. But there are kissing scenes and something like that.

A little bit of a spoiler.

Goodreads always marks if the book is a series or not. 
Click on the series, and it'll show you all the books in the series.
