jantonichuk 's review for:

It Starts With Us by Colleen Hoover
2.75
emotional hopeful sad tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

I did not enjoy this book. There were many problematic themes that were not addressed in healthy ways. 

On top of the problematic themes there was also many sections of the book that were quite long winded or completely unnecessary. 

I wouldn't recommend this book to anyone and it's a stretch to me that this book and the one before it are considered romance.
