Verity | 
so-soA fast book to read that offers some degree of entertainment. The plot is interesting, even though the final twist is quite predictable.
I didn't find the characters very well developed, or their story believable. When it comes to love/crush of both women for Jeremy, the only thing that come to mind is "immature teenage style".
It had the potential to be far much more...
pickOne of the best books ever with an ending you expected but did not expect!
pickI'm a slow reader most of the time. Few books can override my need to be multitasking, hence why I enjoy so many audiobooks. But I read this book in 2 days. Not even 2 days, 1 evening + 1 afternoon. There's plenty of bad reviews on good reads that make some okay points. But this was thrilling and I very much enjoyed it on this rainy weekend.
pickI loveddddd this book. It is the first Colleen hoover book I‘ve read and to say I got a good first impression is an understatement. This story had me gripped from the beginning with numerous twists and turns disturbing me along the way. Such an easy shocking read I‘ll be reading more Colleen hoover now.
pickWOW ?. My mind is blown. I now understand the episode of "Friends" where Joey puts his book in the freezer....
Are you even a Mum if you don't raid your kids treat cupboard to go with your morning coffee when they're at nursery?! 😉
“The only question that remains is: which truth was she manipulating?” Final
pickThis was my first Colleen Hoover! A fun and twisty thriller with lots of unreliable characters. Lowen is a struggling writer when she is tapped to ghost-write the end of a popular series by a famous writer named Verity, who has been in an accident. When she meets Verify‘s family and learns about their tragic past, she can‘t help feeling like something sinister is going on. Everyone has secrets and is unsettling.
pickStarted off the new year with a Colleen Hoover read! I can see why her books are popular! This book kept me entertained! Mind blowing at the end!
pickWow… I have no words 😳
..except I will say I couldn‘t put this down - though I was slightly disappointed in the ending
panUm. No.

About to start reading this. Any CoHo fans out there? My IRL book club picked this for Jan. And I'm sort of dreading it.
bailedOmg what horrible thing did i just read in this book! Verity was pschyco. And i only read 1/2 the book. I got to a point where i couldnt do it anymore. My heart litteraly hurts. I hate it! First DNF of the year and im not looking back to this one!🤬
My favorite books of October were Verity and the first to books in a cozy series: The Ghost and Mrs. Mewer and Murder, She Barked by Krista Davis. I plan on reading more of the cozy series in the #SeriesLove2023.

pickShort and sweet, and wasted no time throwing me into the action; I was hooked. The methods used to execute the suspense seemed overdone and “thriller cliche” at first, but they were crafted perfectly to make it part of the novel‘s charm. Keeping it classic can be the best way to go. She executed it perfectly. I wish the romance had more time to evolve to make the tension feel more realistic; it felt forced and rushed. Overall was a ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ read!
Up and down all night (as always)… starting this one bright and early 🥹
December‘s book club pick for my work book club! 🖤
Officially starting this book tonight! I have seen so many books by Colleen Hoover, but somehow have never read any of her books. I have had an overwhelming amount of good reviews about this book in particular, and was told it would be a fantastic “intro to CoHo“ book. I really hope it lives up to all of the hype! Wish me luck!
pickThis was a quick, sexy read. Starts with a crazy tragedy and the tragedy continues to unveil itself throughout the story. I was 😮🫢 through about 90%. I give an 7/10, and overall pick. Giving it to my husband to read. Hope it doesn‘t freak him out too much 😂😅
so-soMy second attempt at reading Hoover and I think that‘ll be it for me. Much of what I didn‘t like was the same as the last one. Again I felt like she spent the start telling us who these characters were and then had them act nothing like that the whole rest of the book with no explanation. The twist didn‘t feel enough like a twist to be a psychological thriller for me which is what I was expecting when I went in. A quick read with simple writing.
But isn't she???

pick"I hear the crack of his skull before the spattering of blood reaches me."
I was sitting on the edge of my seat throughout this whole book. My heart had never beat so fast during a book before it truly felt like I was watching a thriller waiting for the boogeyman to pop around the corner!
CoHo certainly does deliver! If you enjoy thrillers and CoHo, go into this one blind! Gosh it will get you.
Are you team letter or manuscript?

"I wasn't sad about that. It meant I didn't have to be in her presence, or look at her from my office window during their outdoor breaks." (128)
I think it is interesting how Lowen suddenly switches her thinking and starts thinking of Verity's office as hers now. Is this the only thing she will start laying claim over?

pickThis book is wild! "I remind myself that it could be worse -- I could still be with Amos."
pick“The only question that remains is: Which truth was she manipulating?” Suspenseful to the end.
pickI'm still not sure what happened in this book, but that was the point. It was a very interesting premise, and reminded me a bit of Rebecca and also the Thirteenth Tale by Diane Setterfield, even though this book.
If you want a good psychological thriller to mess with your head, then this is a good read.

All I can say is WOW!
There is A LOT to you pack throughout this book and it keeps you on the edge of your seat! My first Hoover didn‘t disappoint 👏🏻👏🏻
Definitely one of my favourites this year! Believe the hype!
I'm reading this book and finding it so disturbing. I'm about halfway through, is it worth finishing?
