Se ha vuelto una costumbre. Los libros de Coleen Hoover son una aventura (o me gustan o no me gustan) y una subida a una montaña rusa (las emociones fuertes no faltan en sus libros). On the surface, they have nothing in common. Drawn to each other by the secrets and troubled pasts they see hiding behind their eyes, they start to develop a relationship. One that will end in ruins if they’re not careful. What mystery are they afraid to reveal? Who do you think is going to break first?

This book was really sweet, but also really sad and heartbreaking. in this story we follow this young girl named Beyah, who lives in a trailer park with an addict for a Mother. Her life seems to be falling apart when her Mother dies of an overdose and she finds herself homeless in the summer after her senior year of high school. So she calls her birth Father who she barely ever see anymore and asks to stay with him for the summer. This is a romance story about two broken people finding hope in each other again, as well as a coming of age story.And then in a split second, it all changes. How do you figure out what your heart wants, what path your future should take? It’s easier never to let anyone else in, that way you can’t feel hurt. But of course, you’ll never experience love and joy this way either. Beyah and Sara have a growing friendship that I adore. However, the father/daughter relationship is . . . rushed and unsatisfying. I would’ve loved to see how Beyah removed her animosity towards Brian and how they repaired their relationship. Most kids get the kind of parents that’ll be missed after they die. The rest of us get the kind of parents who make better parents after they’re dead. I would certainly have an interest in dark shady (yes, shady 😑) characters like Samson but he's the cutest sht ever when he makes up his mind to do his best for the one he cares about.

In August, I’ll be out of this life, and it won’t be because of anything my mother did for me, or because my father bailed me out of here. It’ll be because of me. I think I grew a heart bone as well! Even though I’m not a huge fan of the summer romance/summer fling trope, I really liked this one. Because it just turned out being more. This was just so sweet and emotional. This book is a mood in its own way for those damaged and the non fun people and I loved it!! I feel like it's best to go into this book not knowing a whole lot, as I'd say it is for most of Colleen Hoover books. This book is sad and devastating, Beyah experiences a lot of tragedy and hard times at such a young age and these experiences have shaped her as a person. I adored her step-sister Sara in this book, and Samson was frustrating at first but he also grew on me as the book progressed. This book is everything you'd expect from a Colleen Hoover book, it's sad as hell, it'll make you cry, it has dark characters with mysterious pasts, etc. But some scenes in this book really touched me and I won't forget about those scenes anytime soon. like the scene when Samson went down to the beach to watch her play volleyball and cheered her on because he knew no one in her life had ever done that for her, that shit was precious. I also loved how he would set an alarm on her phone and they'd watch the sunrise together, that was adorable too.beyah’s father was another story. he was a perfect father, and he lived in a stable home with a stable family, but wasn’t willing to participate in beyah’s life. because of this, he isn’t aware of a lot that is happening considering that beyah barely speaks to him, and it made me sad. it goes to show just because someone seems perfect doesn’t mean they really are all around in another person’s eyes. i think the reason why i enjoyed this book so much was how it shows another side of society. Forbidden romances/toxic relationships get too normal to the point of me questioning myself why I am reading the book
