⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ of 2024

It ends with us:

Wow, couldn’t put it down. First night I read 1/3 of it and got 9 chapters down. I wasn’t expecting such a big turn, The ending ultimately makes my soul happy. Lily has been through hell her entire life. Thank you Colleen for shedding light on something way to many women go through, and even more people are too quick to judge (domestic abuse, dreams coming true, cycle breaking, eye opening) just cause a man seems perfect doesn’t mean he is.

Ugly love:

“It’s the beautiful moments like these that make up for the ugly love”. This book blew me away. At first I didn’t like that it went between past and present but I fell in love with the backstory as it went along. I love that this book proves that no matter how bad the pain hurts or how much you think you don’t deserve love, you do. Your past means nothing.

A thousand boy kisses:

Wow, this book recked me, it’s the first time I’ve cried at a book in what feels like ages. It gave me every emotion possible just like the characters in the book were feeling. It touched on such real subjects and really made you feel like you were living this story with them. I feel for the character poppy & rune. I loved how the book reminded you that life is short and to live it happily instead of being stuck on the sad parts.

The infinity between us:

This book was beautiful! I loved the past & present povs. I loved the best friends turned into lovers. I loved the rawness and brokenness. It was like real like in a sense due to it not being perfect and with everything going against them. I loved wills character and I loved how raw violet was.

If he had been with me:

When I was younger I always dreamed of falling in love with a childhood best friend. It’s what a lot of girls wish for. This book showed a sad twist to that. This book hurts. But it is such a good book at the same time it really pulled me in & kept me reading.

The song of Achilles:

I usually do not read books that deal with fantasy or gods but I decided to take a chance on this one. I don’t regret it one bit. The emotion you feel through the words is amazing, I got stuck on some of the names but aside from that it made me happy, Sad, mad and everything else a good read gives you. I really felt as though I was there with them.

Things we never get over:

I’m OBSESSED with Knox. He’s perfect. The way he takes care of Naomi and her niece is beautiful. At the beginning part of me wanted her to end up with the good guy Nash, but come to find out Knox is a good guy with a jaded past. He protects his girls

Give me a reason:

It’s addicting everything about Trent and Eden is consuming. The perfect bad boy with a “mob biker” past. But he’s good for his child and sweet innocent Eden

Lotus:

Love comes from horrific places. This book never stopped throwing you through loop after loop. Everytime you thought the book made sense something else was thrown in there. It took a little to get into. Not as hard to put down.
