First round of book reviews! 📚
I stared my Colleen Hoover journey with “Regretting You”, and man oh man was it a page turner! This book is an amazing read simply because of how it laid out the storyline of the mother (Morgan) & her daughter (Clara). It isn’t your classic mother daughter tale. It paints a clearer image of just how complex a mother/daughter relationship can be! This book also provides a new perspective of love. Sometimes you stay with someone because you think it’s orthodox and that’s what your supposed to do, but in reality life can place exactly who you need in your life in the most traumatic ways.
I give this book 4 Stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️!
Next up on my TBR list was “Verity” by Colleen Hoover. IT WAS MY FAVORITE 🤩 so far! I couldn’t put it down and I finished it within 24 hours! It is unlike any book you have ever read. It puts the most absurd spin on “happy endings”. In this book, you have to have a little bit of a twisted mind to get through it in my opinion, most of the book will have you second guessing yourself, your loved ones, and the things the human mind is capable of doing. There was a few times I just couldn’t believe that ”Verity” would actually be capable of doing the things she “did”. Heck even after I read the end, I still couldn’t decide if she actually done what she wrote in her memoir. Without giving away any spoilers, I’ll end the review this way,
It’s a book that ends the way your mind wants it to, but will have you thinking about it for long after you close the last page.
“Verity” will probably forever be my favorite book by her! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/ 5 stars 🤩😍
The most recent book I finished by her was “Heart Bones.” Heart Bones was a sweet tale of how people that aren’t really seen can ”slip through the cracks” and become a product of their environment. Once you take the two main characters of this book and take them out of the environments that really shaped who they thought they were, they flourish TOGETHER! This whole book I thought Beya would end up with Samson, while she did in the end, I had no idea of the journey this book would take my mind on! Their love story was perfectly imperfect for me. While I didn’t rush through this book, I can say that it was an okay read! Love the story of how they both ended up in Texas but I hate the way “they still drowned in the shallow” for a while before they could finally be together in the end! It does leave you with the mindset of “Only you can determine who you are, not your past, family “traditions”, or even your environment. You are the product of you.”
⭐️⭐️⭐️/ 5 stars!
