As a writer, let me explain: For some characters, we have the brains and the balls to give them engaging conflict-opposing philosophy’s, genuine failures, moral flaws-but other times we refuse to imagine our character doing anything wrong in their lives so a miscommunication feels like (to some) the only way they and their lover could possibly endure conflict.

Colleen Hoover is writing the wrong genre, in my opinion. Her books would be better if they were straight up thrillers, not romantic dramas. I feel as though "Verity" was written after "November 9" received backlash, but even then, the male lead was a creeper.

@swathipillai6867 6 месяцев назад

I unfortunately read Verity because I didn't learn my lesson after the first 2 CoHo books I've read, and it's bad. Not the worst book out of all the books but spoilers: The male love interest is still a bad guy who might have killed his wife, and the main character is still willing to overlook this. CoHo continuously writes toxic, evil men that are always forgiven by the main character.

You should read Soul Catcher by E.L. Todd. I picked this book up from GTM so you know it’s a treasure lol. Her other books look like your run of the mill romances but this romantasy really captured my 17 year old heart. Though I absolutely hated the love triangle in the second book and haven’t read the third book because I’m scared to see who she ends up with. Maybe now that it’s been a few years I’ll like it. Anyway I think you’ll either like or love this book because 1- it’s not long. 2- the characters are usually pretty good 3- theres sex 4- there’s plot 5- it’s funny, they stuff leaves into wounds without preparing them as if that’s how medicine works and at one point the main character shoves leaves down the love interests throat.

How did I know the worst love interest line has to be about November 9 (and I didn't even read it 😆). I did read Verity aka Rebecca rip-off and the biting the bed scene is very memorable, unfortunately.

Cindy!! I could give you a giant bear hug! I’ve never heard of Libby and haven’t utilized the library because I don’t read physical books due to hating carrying anything with me and reading while my child sleeps. I need to read possible comps for my work, but money is tight right now. Your recommendation made me go to the library yesterday, update my card, download Libby and another app they recommended, and now I have all the books I need for free and I get to help the library. Thank you so much!! Also, my ten year old wanted her own library card too, so I signed her up. She feels very mature now lol

From Blood and Ash was a MESS & I'm still haunted by that one scene in which the main character & her love interest have s'x and she starts screaming her head off simply because he touches her although it's not even in an erogenous ~area~ and I was just like??? why is this book so hyped??
