I’m a huge Colleen Hoover fan, and whenever I’m asked what my favorite book of hers is, while it’s difficult to pick just one, It Ends With Us always tops the list. So when I heard that she had a sequel coming out, I was both excited and apprehensive. But after devouring the book in about two hours, my only disappointment is that I’m finished now and have to wait for her next book!!
“Sometimes people think if they love a broken person enough, they can be what finally repairs them, but the problem with that is the other person just ends up broken, too.”
At the start of the book, Lily has just seen Atlas for the first time almost two years after they last spoke. She is trying to co-parent her young daughter with Ryle, and while they’ve developed a good rhythm, Lily is afraid Ryle thinks there’s still a chance for them even after the divorce.
Seeing each other brings light into both Lily and Atlas’ lives. Is the timing finally right for them to try and pursue the relationship both have wanted since they were teenagers? As much as that’s what Lily wants, she’s worried that her dating anyone—especially Atlas—might set Ryle off and complicate their ability to raise their daughter together.
This is a book about second chances, about finding love when you don’t feel you deserve it or even believe it’s possible. And it’s a powerful exploration of what it means to have someone in your corner. While it didn’t leave me in an absolute emotional puddle like the first book, it was utterly beautiful and definitely had me in tears a few times.
Do yourself a favor and read both!!
