I have read all of Colleen Hoovers most popular books, including Verity, It Ends/It Starts With Us, Ugly Love, November 9, and Hopeless, and this one is my absolute favorite. I started reading this book knowing absolutely nothing about is and I am so glad I did. I finished it so fast because I genuinely could not put it down. The prologue already had me in tears and Auburn immediately had my heart (I am also a hairdresser so I connected with her on that level too). This book deserves so much more attention, I am absolutely in love with it. This will probably be my favorite book for a long time.

I enjoyed this. It was a little boring at first and they were Some plot twists that I didn’t see it coming. I liked the Auburn as a main character Owen was OK at first he was really weird to me but he got better and the secret wasn’t that big of a deal and I kind of saw it coming. There’s some more serious contact in this so trigger warning for sexual assault, emotional abuse, physical abuse, addiction, and some other things. I really like the artwork included in this. That was a good touch and I do wish we got a little more confessions because those are really interesting.

Could this be my new favorite CoHo book? Very much so. OMG (those who read it will understand lol), I could not put it down, I don’t think I ever felt so angry at fictional characters as I did with some from “Confession”, and loved others with the same intensity. This book is amazing. I can’t stop thinking about it, guess I’ll have to watch the series now.

Colleen Hoover has don’t it again folks, she broke my heart. I loved this book, I loved Auburn & Owen so much. This book was beautifully written, Colleens writing style is just *chefs kiss* I loved the full circle moment, the connections, and the surprising twists — I’m convinced Colleen Hoover doesn’t know how to write a bad book.
