Verity Book Review
I completed this book in one day. The story is intense and dark which I totally loved about this book. Once you start reading it you won’t be able to stop yourself just one more chapter- one more chapter, one more page- one more page.
This gave me creepy vibes in a good way. The characters had that kind of mystery no matter how much you read you will be suspicious about why they are doing this.
This book is going to be my all-time favorite and the ending is something I totally did not expect.
I literally got emotional when I read the last part(Letter) of the story. I was like what?!. Was everything a lie? Or that was true. After you complete this book you will be given a choice of which side you want to believe in and which truth you want to believe in.
This was the first thriller book by Colleen Hoover. Her novels always have unexpected endings and mind-blowing twists. Most of her books are romantic books but this was her first thriller and I literally loved it. She’s a writer that keeps popping up on my social media. It’s like faith is telling me to read her books.
I love talking about this book to know others’ opinions of which side they are choosing letters or manuscripts.

Non-Forgottable Scene From Verity
I just want to talk about one of my favorite scenes or a scene I won’t forget easily. I’m not going to give you much description about it as I don’t want to spoil the story for you.
I was so into that book at that scene – She sleeps in her room but she wakes up at another place on another bed.
I got overwhelmed by reading it. I just took a break drank cold water and then I again started reading it. It just gave me chills and goosebumps.
