Slammed Series by Colleen Hoover - Reading from 'Slammed (Slammed #1)' from September 10th 2019

[prag ♻]

Ohooo there's a lot I didn't know
(view spoiler)[LAKE SITS UP on the bed and glares at me. “What the hell, Will? Gavin knew? He’s known this whole time?”

I laugh. “Hey, you and Eddie weren’t the only ones keeping secrets.”

Then why did Will get so pissed when he figured Eddie knew? Huh? (hide spoiler)]

Yes also knowing the person you loved the most is going to suffer the same way you did. (hide spoiler)]

[Mona]

Rachael wrote: "64% [spoilers removed]"

(view spoiler)[ she needed Will to tell her the truth. She wasn't thinking reasonably about Kel (hide spoiler)]

He didn't have a choice with Gavin he knew it all by himself and that made Will really uncomfortable.
He was angery because he didn't maybe trust Eddie and he thought Lake told her.

That's what I thought too but I've been pleasantly surprised at how much we didn't know in the original story

Yeah, I guess.

I'm done with This Girl!? This was a good series. I wouldn't say amazing, but yeah, it wasn't bad. Thanks for reading with me, Mona and Rachael:)

Up to chapter 4 (view spoiler)[ I'm way to excited that this is a teacher/student relationship. These story lines are my weakness, haha. I really like Lake so far and the poetry slam thing was super cool but Lake was right, Will should have asked whether she was still in school or not. (hide spoiler)]

[Amy]

Up to chapter 13 (view spoiler)[ I like how Hoover didn't just brush over the fact Lake's mum has cancer, like Will said she was losing it but that was realistic and to be expected. (hide spoiler)]

[Amy]

Up to chapter 17 (view spoiler)[ Aw Eddie and her dad are so cute! I'm glad she finally found someone who wants her since her mum was so horrible. (hide spoiler)]

[Amy]

Finished! This was such a cute, quick read! (view spoiler)[ I'm glad they ended up together but it was sad seeing their Christmas without Lake's mum and Will's parents, it must have been lonely. That slam confession of love was intense but weirdly I loved it! (hide spoiler)]

[M★]

Wow! you finished really fast. I am gonna start Slammed today :)

[Amy]

It was an addicting read! I'll still be here to discuss it with you. :)

[Berit☀️✨]

Just started this(view spoiler)[ not sure why I even put this in a spoiler, but I don't think I'd want to move from Texas to Michigan, I really want to avoid living in the snow at all costs!!!
So far so good cute getting her to take him to the grocery store (hide spoiler)]

[Berit☀️✨]

Chapter 5(view spoiler)[ this is a little PLL I don't like the teacher student relationship,, I really don't know how they could've gone on an entire date and not discussed what he did for a living??? (hide spoiler)]

[Berit☀️✨]

Chapter 12(view spoiler)[ wow! What a bummer, But I can understand where her mom is coming from she wants her to be able to live her life, but I can also see where she is coming from, a little weird that the same situation is going on next-door??? (hide spoiler)]

[Amy]

Berit wrote: "Chapter 5[spoilers removed]"

Haha, I know! I think you either love or hate this type of storyline.(view spoiler)[ I found it weird how he didn't realise she was so young! Maybe it was wishful thinking, he didn't even want to consider she could be young enough to still be in school. (hide spoiler)]

[Katrina G]

I am joining in!

Chapter 1
(view spoiler)[ Okay wow so they are moving already, the daughter is named Layken based on two names her parents thought of.Yeah Parents can totally do that xD
and WTF?Layken is already feeling butterflies for Will and they are on a date without even actually asking the question? (hide spoiler)]

Chapter 2

(view spoiler)[Oh god Lake's mom had me in splits x'D

"Well, you're eighteen now. You've had enough of my dating advice for a lifetime," she says. "But I'll provide you with a quick recap just in case. Don't order anything with onion or garlic, never leave your drink unattended and always use protection."

I loved the slam poetry/poetries! Tho I wish I could actuall see and hear the real thing to feel it. (hide spoiler)]

[Bhavik (Semi Hiatus)]

Chapter 3-7
(view spoiler)[Omg Layken owned that slam xD
Eddie is such a good friend!
The tension between Lake and Will tho! (hide spoiler)]

[Bhavik (Semi Hiatus)]

Chapter 8-11
(view spoiler)[More wonderful slams!
Lake y u do this..falling for Will again and again.
Now Eddie knows this , probably Gavin too.

WTFFFF ..now the mother has cancer too?
Is this even a romance novel or tragedy novel?
(ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻ (hide spoiler)]

[Bhavik (Semi Hiatus)]

Chapter 12-14
(view spoiler)[ So much denial and anger..Death can make you go through so many things :/ (hide spoiler)]

Chapter 15-16
(view spoiler)[Definitely the best chapters :')
Kel is an amazing kid.
Kids can be so damn amazing sometimes.
Eddie's Birthday :')
Acceptance played a big role here (hide spoiler)]

[Bhavik (Semi Hiatus)]

Chapter 17-20
(view spoiler)[Will was an asshole.."having weak moments" BS!
Kel and Cauder's halloween costume!! So awesome!
Lake's mom is so full of love and understanding :')
Will's old slam now in the form of ppt making Lake inderstand life!oh lord so good! (hide spoiler)]

[Bhavik (Semi Hiatus)]

Chapter 21-Epilogue

(view spoiler)[Oh god finally some love!
Those Slams :')
So heat touching! The reaction of crowd xD
I wish I could literally hear and see that..it would have tripled the fun.
Chapter's end felt rather abrupt.

Epilogue was good too. Ending felt abrupt too somehow but it could have been for the best maybe.
Those life questioning quotes are probably best part of the book
Finally this cringy tragedy love story ends.
3.5/5 (hide spoiler)]

[Victoria]

Up to chapter 2 (view spoiler)[ The characters feel pretty real so far, and I'm loving that! But this relationship is moving very fast, and I'm not a fan of that. I figure something is going to happen to slow it down, but we'll see (hide spoiler)]

[R.J.]

(view spoiler)[ the wreck freaks me out everytime (hide spoiler)]

wow.I liked it a tad bit ,not to mention it was my first romantic novel in a way (view spoiler)[ felt more like tragedy lol (hide spoiler)]
Also another author encouraged me to read the second and third part of this series which I'll do later I think.

You can add spoilers by doing this : <.spoiler.>The things you want to write<./spoiler.> <-- write those minus the dots.

Amy wrote: "Up to chapter 13 [spoilers removed]"

made me cry...Hoover did an amazing job at painting all the 'feels'

[Victoria]

Up to chapter 7 (view spoiler)[ Lake really isn't being fair to him. I get it, she has strong feelings, but does she have any idea what the consequences could be? I'm so ready to see her poem though, that should be fantastic (hide spoiler)]

[Victoria]

Finished part 2 (view spoiler)[ I can't believe she has cancer! I didn't think she was in a relationship, but CANCER? I'm so not ready to be heartbroken like this, it's going to be awful (hide spoiler)]
