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

[Victoria]

Up to chapter 14 (view spoiler)[ I think Eddie is my favourite character - she controlled that scene with Lake and her mum, and they really needed that. She's so easy to trust too (hide spoiler)]

She's the best:')

[Victoria]

Finished! (view spoiler)[ I'm really happy with the way the relationship worked out. Those poems were both so beautifully written, I loved them! And it was the perfect way for them to get together (hide spoiler)]

[R.J.]

(view spoiler)[ I remember crying when Julia dies...and the little pieces of paper that they get from the jar...Oh man, oh man I have chills thinking about it. It is more of a tragedy than romance, but it's so good. Hoover's pretty talented, I think. All of the characters were so dynamic, multi-faceted they just...popped off the page. (hide spoiler)]

15% (view spoiler)[ wow… that reading was a bit too much. I could picture this girl with the blue sweater. I loved it but I was sad at the end. (hide spoiler)]

[[deleted user]]

41% (view spoiler)[ Hilarious!!! I love that she scared everyone when she started yelling all the other words for mean… I love pernicious the best! It reminds me of the word used in Pride and Prejudice (the American movie). (hide spoiler)]

[[deleted user]]

50% (view spoiler)[ I cannot believe that her mom is sick… I would have rather she had found someone instead of being ill. I’m glad Lake has Eddie and Will to lean back for help and friendship. (hide spoiler)]

[[deleted user]]

74% (view spoiler)[ Ok… I cried at the end of chapter 15. Will and his stupid poem. I cried at the end because of that stupid purple hair clip. I feel so sad, so sad for Julia, for Lake, for Kel, and for the life she is leaving behind (hide spoiler)]

[[deleted user]]

81% (view spoiler)[ OMG!! Can Will be more forthcoming with his poetry??? “You keep the ocean. I’ll take the Lake.” Go Layken (Lake) girl! (hide spoiler)]

[[deleted user]]

Finished… (view spoiler)[ Well! I liked the ending and the exchange at the club between Lake and Will, and Will finally coming to his senses… I didn’t really care for the epilogue. I knew her mom would pass away but seriously? It was just sad. I did like the letter at the end though. (hide spoiler)]

Yeah... Her Poem (view spoiler)[ is fantastic. You won't be disappointed. I liked most of Will's poems... Well all three of them! (hide spoiler)]

Yep. Sometimes you need someone as strong as Eddie. She gets to the point. No need to be wasting time.

Victoria wrote: "Finished! [spoilers removed]"

Yah.. They expressed what they felt for each other without really spoiling much unless you really know their story.

I felt that way too. (view spoiler)[ the parents dying, leaving the boys at a young age. Yes they have their older sibling but really? they do need their parents. (hide spoiler)]

[Stormy]

I have now finished this book and I absolutely loved this book I loved the characters I loved that little brothers it was such a sad book as well so who would like to read the second book with me

[Stormy]

I love the poetry in this book as well I know it was slammed poetry but I loved it nonetheless

[Stormy]

Did you like the part of slam poetry the students wrote and said?
Yes I absolutely love the part where they did the slam poetry it was one of my favourite parts in the book

Do you think Layken cried too much? I think yes she did cry at quite a lot over will but I think she was also crying about what situation she's got herself in and everything what happened to her

I wouldn't say there was actually a part I didn't like in the book as this is one of my favourite books by Colleen hoover
would you be up for reading the second book with me

[Stormy]

So when would you want me to set the thread for as I'm up for reading it today
