It Ends with Us by Colleen Hoover follows Lily Bloom, a young woman who moves to Boston to open her own flower shop after escaping a troubled childhood marked by her father's abuse toward her mother. There, she meets charming neurosurgeon Ryle Kincaid, sparking an intense romance that challenges her views on love, but complications arise when her first love from adolescence, Atlas Corrigan, reenters her life, stirring old memories and tensions. As Lily navigates ambition, passion, and painful patterns echoing her past, the story examines cycles of hurt, forgiveness, and the courage to choose differently for one's future without revealing key turning points.

Jamie’s review

I had to read this to understand what all the hype was about… and I didn't get what all the hype was about. I thought it was just okay. Definite trigger warnings as the theme is an abusive relationship. It was another fast Colleen Hoover read but pretty forgettable and I never got attached to the characters. I never say this, but the movie was better.

Decent vacation read, but was just meh overall for me.

Erica’s review

I only read It Ends With Us. Loved it at the time but I've weirdly gotten annoyed with the story as time has gone on. Maybe it's the Hollywood stuff tainting it for me? If you live under a rock, then you haven't heard of this, or read it, or seen the movie. Not sure you're missing all that much TBH. It's definitely a bit heavy and has some trigger warnings with abuse so check that for sure. And I honestly still cannot stand that name Ryle. That trigged me, personally. Both characters irritated me, but again, maybe I'm just now thinking of Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni? 🙃
