Book Review: Confess by Colleen Hoover

Confess by Colleen Hoover (3 Stars + 1 Star because the last chapter broke me)


Goodreads | TBD



Auburn Reed has her entire life mapped out. Her goals are in sight and there’s no room for mistakes. But when she walks into a Dallas art studio in search of a job, she doesn’t expect to find a deep attraction to the enigmatic artist who works there, Owen Gentry.

For once, Auburn takes a risk and puts her heart in control, only to discover Owen is keeping major secrets from coming out. The magnitude of his past threatens to destroy everything important to Auburn, and the only way to get her life back on track is to cut Owen out of it.

The last thing Owen wants is to lose Auburn, but he can’t seem to convince her that truth is sometimes as subjective as art. All he would have to do to save their relationship is confess. But in this case, the confession could be much more destructive than the actual sin…

A HAPPY DAY FOR US COHORTS




Today was a very happy day for bookworms who love Colleen Hoover. It has been a long while since I was able to attend an event that is specifically for bookworms like me (the last was the Tahereh-Ransom-Rossi signing event, april last year. So, as you see it has almost been a year since I went to an event dedicated on bookworm activities if I may say so freely.

Mini-Review: Maybe Someday by Colleen Hoover

Maybe Someday by Colleen Hoover ( 4 Stars )





Blurb from Goodreads:

At twenty-two years old, aspiring musician Sydney Blake has a great life: She’s in college, working a steady job, in love with her wonderful boyfriend, Hunter, and rooming with her good friend, Tori. But everything changes when she discovers Hunter cheating on her with Tori—and she is left trying to decide what to do next.

Sydney becomes captivated by her mysterious neighbor, Ridge Lawson. She can’t take her eyes off him or stop listening to the daily guitar playing he does out on his balcony. She can feel the harmony and vibrations in his music. And there’s something about Sydney that Ridge can’t ignore, either: He seems to have finally found his muse. When their inevitable encounter happens, they soon find themselves needing each other in more ways than one…

Swoon Thurdsday: This Girl by Colleen Hoover

Swoon Thursday #1


Swoon is a weekly meme hosted by YA Bound.

From the book you’re currently reading, or one you just finished, tell us what made you SWOON. What got your heart pounding, your skin tingling, and your stomach fluttering.
Shout it out on Twitter with the hashtag #YABound.

This is the most perfect meme for me XD, so I recently read a certain book, that made me half-demented because of my seizure-because-of-romance-attacks.

Book Review: Hopeless by Colleen Hoover

Hopeless by Colleen Hoover (4 stars)

I. Love. It! :D

"It is amazing, its emotional, its an adrenaline rush. Dang, its perfect."

Blurb from Goodreads: Sometimes discovering the truth can leave you more hopeless than believing the lies…
That’s what seventeen-year-old Sky realizes after she meets Dean Holder. A guy with a reputation that rivals her own and an uncanny ability to invoke feelings in her she’s never had before. He terrifies her and captivates her all in the span of just one encounter, and something about the way he makes her feel sparks buried memories from a past that she wishes could just stay buried.
Sky struggles to keep him at a distance knowing he’s nothing but trouble, but Holder insists on learning everything about her. After finally caving to his unwavering pursuit, Sky soon finds that Holder isn’t at all who he’s been claiming to be. When the secrets he’s been keeping are finally revealed, every single facet of Sky’s life will change forever.
