Reviews with content warning for Physical abuse - Confess – Vallomás

I liked this book it was good. Being an artist I like the concept of the art used in this book, Owen I think has won me over for a book crush. Hahahaha.

The story itself was good, I felt it picked up just over half way , the first half I kept thinking haven't I just read this, it just felt repeatative.
Auburn just felt flat to me the whole time through, I understand that she had so much going on but she was a very flat character for me again she didn't show her character until towards the end is when I started liking her.

Overall it was a good colleen hoover read but placing in the middle of my rankings.

This was not my favorite Colleen Hoover book, but still written in her typical fashion. Some of the confessions were hard to read. And Auburn's story made me sad. I'm not sure how I feel about Owen lol.

I really liked this book. The main character and love interest (Owen) were very cringy to me at first (not a fan of 20 yr old MCs or broody artists that treat their previous girlfriends like dirt and only FMC is the one to change him) but they both redeemed themselves by about the middle of the book.

I ended up falling in love with Owen after that scene in the shower where he reminds her she’s beautiful. I also loved the bit of them shopping the aisle at Target. It was original and cute and I found myself smiling stupidly to myself while I was reading.

I absolutely LOVED the inclusion of visuals, especially that painting he drew of Auburn. It was so beautiful. And the idea of confessions is so cute too! I have seen stuff like that before in real life so I felt it was a very believable storyline.

I despised Trey and Lydia, but loved them for the plot. Like loved to hate them! I love when there’s an obvious villain haha

Overall, this was a cute read

with the perfect full circle moment

and satisfying ending. I probably won’t read it again but I definitely loved it.
