Now Atlas reappears in her life and but she is in a relationship with Ryle.
It Ends With Us Review
It’s a romance novel but if I have to give it a particular category then I’ll give it heartbreaking. It has a happy ending but still, it’s heartbreaking.
The way Colleen Hoover has described Ryle Kincaid – a perfect guy or dream man that a girl wants to date. So it’s really hard to choose between both of them but I personally like Atlas Corrigan. Well, you will also like him after reading the book.
Lily’s character is amazing in the way she holds on and stayed strong during difficult times. The other characters in the book like their friends and family everyone have different personalities. That made the story feel so real.
Most romance novels don’t give you lessons or something to think about but this one gives you that valuable lesson. I like this book more than any other romance I have read till now because this has something more realistic and gives you an ending that was needed.
At first, I thought it will be a typical love triangle but it was not. There’s so much going on in the story that it did not give that love triangle vibe.
Once you start reading it you will want to finish it. To be honest, when I started reading this I wanted to finish it I wanted to know the ending but at the same time, I just didn’t want it to end.
If you want to cry read this book. It will make you feel happy it will make you smile it will make you cry.
The whole book is emotional but when I was reading the ending note that Colleen Hoover has written. It was overwhelming to read. It says that many of the incidents in the book are inspired by real events. Lily’s really character is inspired by her mom.
When I finished the book I came across the news of its sequel and I’m eagerly waiting for the sequel to release. So that I can read it. I want to read Atlas’s POV just want to know what’s going on in his mind.
What I Loved About The book
The book is beautifully written.
It’s not just these three characters in the book. I’m happy that there were other characters in the book who just did not exist but had a role.
I have so many favorite lines in this book.
The way Colleen Hoover has described every character. They all feel so real.
