Maybe it was cause I was listening to the book and I don't do super well with audiobooks but I really struggled with trying to retain or comprehend anything....and it just didn't hold my interest at all ..

Adventures book. The beginning really grabs you but the rest of the book felt like a bunch of setting up with little things happening in between. It was interesting and impressive for a young author!

Lighthearted book. I didn't like how there were many Vietnamese phrases that weren't referenced as to what they mean. I feel like context to summarize a translation could have been written or a translation guide. There were a lot in the book and I felt like I was missing a lot of context from the different language.

This book was beautiful. I loved Nesta's journey in her physical and mental struggles and found it incredibly relatable to the point I was sobbing because of how deep it hit home many times. How we all struggle with personal flaws, imposter syndrome, weakness, grief, admitting that we are loveable...all was so amazing.

I'm giving it a 3 solely cause the sex scenes were good. However I felt there wasn't much character development and the connection felt forced and didn't make sense. I felt pretty lost in the story.

I kinda wish this was my first Colleen Hoover book I'd ever read. Great love, great story, great twist, and a HEA. Both Ben and Fallon were easy loveable characters. Ben seemed almost too unreal though honestly. Is there a guy actually out there who would make such grand gestures? Please @ yourself.

Didn't think I'd be into a mafia romance novel but here we are. I wouldn't even call this a "dark Peter Pan retelling" because it's really a completely different novel with Peter Pan names and inuendos. The story plot, twists, and sexiness were top notch.
