It Ends With Us: A Novelvolume 1

I absolutely loved this book, it touches upon sensitive subjects in such a reveling way..and it is so well written. I’ll be off reading Colleen’s other books, this one was amazing!

I don’t remember when the last time I sat down with a book was before this, and I said to myself when buying it that I’d read a chapter a day. One day later - I’m buying the next instalment! It was such a brilliant read. It evokes powerful emotions and you genuinely become invested in the characters. It can be triggering for anyone who has suffered from domestic abuse, just a heads up. This was my first CH novel, I bought my second the next day and wish I could read them for the first time all over again!

Woah. GODDDAMN. I deadass haven’t found a book this nice before that made me cry ts much gng. N the ending js makes u wna get the next book. It is mostly abt abuse and sez but yh js a warning

Great book,love it. I rate this a 4 star because some scenes didn't seem realistic to me like Allysa character who is rich has people to do everything for her yet decide to work for Lily's flower shop making $10 an hour because she is bored, like what? however I did love her friendship with Lily. SPOILER! The book has two stories. We get to know about Lily in her present life and her past through her journals as she tries to get closure from her past. Lily grew up in an abusive home and she got through it with her friend Atlas but later on have to part ways. Lily meets Ryle on the rooftop after her father's death and get to know each other playing the game of naked truth and Ryle admits that he doesn't do relationship and only wants a one night stand with her.After getting to know each for a while they fall in love get married but both have past that somehow interferes with the relationship. Lily hasn't gotten closure from her first love Atlas and Ryle has a lot of anger from his childhood after he shot his brother.Ryle abuses lily unintentionally but after the 3rd time lily knows he isn't going to change and is conflicted whether to stay or leave him after she finds out she is pregnant. I definitely recommend reading this book.

I throughly enjoyed this book, so much that i’ve raved about it to all my friends and now they’ve bought it too! If you are a sucker for a romance then this for you! I was absolutely hooked and read it in 3 sittings. It made me cry and laugh… I loved the twists and links forward and backwards in the book. I am now reading ‘It starts with us’ which is also great, but no where near as good as this one. The characters are great! Highly recommended!

I love how Colleen writes her books

So good the quality is also really good and it DID NOT come damaged

So excited to watch this on a Big Screen! The story is so amazing once you started it you'll crave to read for more until u didn't even realize u already finish the whole book in just 3 days. Lol!

It Ends With Us is an incredible read. The story is emotional, compelling, and beautifully written, keeping me hooked from start to finish. The characters feel real and relatable, and the themes are handled thoughtfully and with depth. It’s one of those books that stays with you long after you finish. Truly powerful, engaging, and unforgettable. Highly recommend to anyone who loves emotional and impactful fiction.

Good

I put off reading this book for ages, it was in my house on the TBR pile but we all know that the TBR pile is like a big black hole!!! As soon as It Starts With Us was announced though, I preordered that and decided to wait and read them together. I am so happy with that decision and I can tell you that I devoured this in a day and was so happy that I could immediately start on It Starts With Us. This story actually touched so close to home, I grew up in an abusive home and all I can say is that it wasn’t pretty, unlike this story though, my monster was my mother, the one person that should be protecting us. (Absolutely not looking for sympathy I’m just sharing that I can understand the fear that this book portrayed) With that said though, I absolutely loved this book, there were so many moments that just broke my heart while I read it, but equally there were so many moments that filled me with so much love, joy and hope. This following quote sent chills through my body. My mother went through it, I went through it I’ll be damned if I let my daughter go through it. I kiss her on the forehead and make her a promise. It stops here, with me and you, It ends with us!!! I have been there and had to make that same choice for the exact same reason, someone needs to break the cycle of abuse. Atlas and Lily both live a life of abuse, both different kinds of abuse, but abuse nonetheless. As teenagers this pair were each other’s hope, each other’s rock and each other’s home, sadly of course things never turn out how we think it will and they are definitely in for a time of disappointment. I think this storyline was told so well and after reading the authors notes at the end I can understand why. Obviously the book wasn’t all about Lily and Atlas, we got to meet Alyssa and Marshall who were the sweetest couple ever. Of course we then meet Ryle, Alyssa’s brother, there is a lot more to this guy than meets the eye, which is all I can say without spoiling too much. Absolutely brilliant read that I wholeheartedly recommend.

Pretty good read, recommend reading the sequel too.

!!! Spoi Olabilir!!! Yazar 2.kitabi çıkaracağını duyurduğu ve amazonda İngilizce versiyonu çok uygun bir fiyatta olduğu için hemen aldım. Türkçe basımını daha önce okumuştum. Ama kapak tasarımı ve kitabın adı açısından beni üzdü. (çünkü 2.kitabin adını da ilk kitapta kullandılar)
