Ugly Love by Colleen Hoover - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Ok, so a contemporary romance with a whole lot of sex isn’t my usual go to fiction (I’m normally a psychological thriller type of girl!), but I have to admit I quite enjoyed this book! It was a solid 3 stars for the majority of the read, until everything came together in the last segment, which had me racing to turn the pages with tears rolling down my cheeks. I had no choice but to bump it up to an unexpected 4 stars!

Pros:
📖 Easy to read which makes it a very quick page turner
📖 Switches between perspectives and timelines, leaving you desperate to find out what happened in between
📖 Great for a light read between heavier novels…
📖… but still be prepared to cry! The last quarter of the book is very emotional in a few different ways, but for all the right reasons. It’ll leave you smiling and crying and pondering your own what ifs. Any book that garners that kind of emotional response from me is always going to earn that extra ⭐️
📖 A great ending that left me satisfied (I cannot stand a book that doesn’t have closure at the end!)
📖 Leaves me wanting to read more from this author!

Cons:
👎🏻 too much sex for me, I found myself skipping over it a lot as it was very repetitive. I need more intellectual stimulation than just knowing who’s hands are where, but I can see why the girls over on #booktok go crazy for Colleen Hoover if that’s their jam
👎🏻 too much doormat behaviour from the female protagonist. I’ve been out of the game for a VERY long time - please don’t tell me women act like this in real life?
👎🏻 at face value, it’s a very boring and overdone plot. A friends with benefit situation where the girl ends up falling for him and things get messy? Yawn.

I’ll be dropping this off to my local #bookswap at @thebluebeancoffeeco soon - if you’re local to #ebbsfleet then pop in and keep an eye out!
