Review: Losing Hope By Colleen Hoover






Losing Hope By Colleen Hoover

Rating : 5 of 5 stars

It. Was. Perfect.
Just when I thought it couldn’t get better, Colleen Hoover comes and just knocks it out of the park! Colleen Hoover can do no wrong in my book. I've read and loved each and every single one of her books and they were all brilliant, and Losing Hope was no exception. Hopeless was one of my favorite books of 2012 and reading the story again from Holder's POV made me exactly remember why.

This is Holder's story. You need to understand just how much I mean those words. This is HIS story. This isn't just Hopeless from Holder's POV, this is his story during Hopeless, his story before Hopeless, and his story apart from Hopeless. Okay, I will not explain the story behind this book because it’s almost the same as in the first book with a few additions here and there.But we get to see/read about two new characters, Les and Daniel.Well Les is not really new but we get to know her a little better here.

I will only say that this was already an amazing story under Hope/Sky’s POV and it was even a greater one under Holder’s. Oh, how I love his mind and the fact that he never actually loses hope.Although this book was sadder than the first with the entire Les story and the letters, it was also better and had the addition of some great characters.

Finally,I was positive that Ms. Hoover would NOT make me cry in this book like she did in Hopeless.I was so wrong. When I read Lesslie's letter to her brother it made me tear up. Big time.
If you liked the first, you really can’t miss this one so if you haven’t read it yet.
I advise you to do it fast.

Review : This Girl By Colleen Hoover

This Girl (Slammed, #3)This Girl By Colleen Hoover

Rating: 5 of 5 stars(would have given more if possible)

THIS. BOOK. IS. PHENOMENAL. Books like this are the reason why I love reading. This Girl was the perfect final chapter to a magnificent series that will forever reside on my all time favorites shelf. This story was so beautifully written that I almost wanted to highlight the entire book.

Colleen Hoover has outdone herself (again). She managed to take a story that we love(Slammed) and retell it from the hero’s POV while still making every single word of it feel new, fresh and powerful.The book actually takes place after Point of Retreat and is a continuation of their story in that respect. But, a major part of the book, is Lake asking Will what his perspective was on a lot of the things they went through together, and asking him things about himself that neither she nor us (the readers) knew.

Do you need to re-read Slammed and Point of Retreat before reading this? No. But you do need to read them at least once first? For sure!This book was perfect from start to finish.

Colleen Hoover is freaking awesome! This was such a moving story! I couldn't put it down once I started reading.

Eighteen year-old Layken, after the death of her father,moves from Texas to Michigan with her mother,Julia,and brother,Kel because her mother gets a good job offer and they can no longer afford their house.Enter Will Cooper: the attractive twenty-one year old new neighbor with an intriguing passion for slam poetry. Unfortunately in Layken’s life, things are never what they seem. Just as quickly as it develops, their relationship is derailed by a shocking revelation, sparking a tumultuous battle between their hearts and their ethics. As if the dramatic turn of events in her life isn’t enough, Layken is slammed again when her mother reveals a secret of her own. A secret so intense, all of Layken’s current problems pale in comparison to her seemingly insurmountable future.
This book is inspiring it made me laugh ,it made me cry and most of all it made me fall in love with life. This book schooled me to push my boundaries because that is wat they are there for.
I’d highly highly recommend it to pretty much anyone and everyone who loves to read.
