Colleen Hoover said ACAB. She really does come up with interesting ways to keep love interests apart (but not for too long).

This book would have been so much better without Trey. Obliviously

he is the villain of the story. But he is such a cheesy villain. Planting evidence, being a bad cop?

the rest of the story is heart wrenching and beautiful but an unrealistic amount of conflict. Good read though!

2.0

I'll start by saying I don't think Hoover's books are for me, or more like I'm not the target audience. The characters were frustrating, the plot a bit implausible, the overall love story disappointing. The only part I appreciated was the believability of staying in a toxic relationship in the hope that you might get custody of your child. I realize that I'm being super judgey and that there are people out there who can relate to the characters and their experiences in this book. Just a book not for me.

i hadn’t read a colleen hoover book before, but i read it as a buddy read with my friend and i only finished it because i want to reach my reading goal. i didn’t like any of the characters and there wasn’t much plot to make up for it. both of the guys are really problematic and the sex scenes were badly written, toxic and it didn’t seem like there was consent. owens art was ugly and i wish we didn’t have to see it, if it had just been described i could have imagined it instead of having to look at the pictures. overall it was very boring and i hope i don’t ever read a book similar to it.

This was the first collen hoover book I ever read and I hope it will be the last. The only reason I actually finished this is because I was buddy reading it with a friends and she needed to finish this book to reach er yearly reading goal. I hated all the characters and it was so incredibly boring that I sometimes chose to do absolutely nothing over trying to finish this book. I wish the book hadn’t added actual photos of Owen’s art, because then I could’ve at least imagined that he was a good artist. I thought the sex scenes would’ve at least been kinda decently written, since collen hoover is known to have a lot of sex in her books, but even the scenes where both characters gave consent, it seemed like I was reading a non consensual sex scene. I hated this book deeply and it showed me how little i could care about a story.
