Heart Bones by Colleen Hoover | Goodreads

Colleen Hoover releases a new book, I'm going to read it. I like to go into her books not knowing anything, so I went into this newest release knowing very little and waited to see where Colleen would take us. And then in a split second, it all changes. How do you figure out what your heart wants, what path your future should take? It’s easier never to let anyone else in, that way you can’t feel hurt. But of course, you’ll never experience love and joy this way either. Nothing is known about Samson, only that he is the son of someone who has a lot of money. Beyah tries to find out and he doesn't tell her. So they agree to be together for the summer and that in the end he will answer everything she wants to know.Forbidden romances/toxic relationships get too normal to the point of me questioning myself why I am reading the book It took me awhile to warm to Beyah, as she was more judgmental than the so-called rich people she constantly insulted. Samson wasn't a douche...always a plus for a CoHo novel, but he also wasn't particularly riveting. It wasn't until the beach volleyball game that I really began to feel much of anything for him.

Heart Bones by Colleen Hoover - Heidi Dischler Book Review: Heart Bones by Colleen Hoover - Heidi Dischler

In case you DO want a membership, just read this book cause: (1) It’s so sad, it’s a mood; (2) After spending most of the 2nd half chapters sobbing my eyes out, I can confirm that I am now positively ✧ damaged ✧. So, let’s welcome me to this club (with a hug, please)! ✨ 😭I think I grew a heart bone as well! Even though I’m not a huge fan of the summer romance/summer fling trope, I really liked this one. Because it just turned out being more. This was just so sweet and emotional. This book is a mood in its own way for those damaged and the non fun people and I loved it!! Since CoHo has been all over the place lately in terms of genre, it’s helpful to know going in that this is a return to her sweet spot - New Adult romance. If you haven’t read one of those before, you're basically signing up to be a fly on the wall while of-age teenagers engage in bedroom business time. Once again, I feel compelled to use the word gross. I found myself getting more connected to Beyah and Samson’s relationship with other people rather than their relationship with each other. Those relationships spoke to me more on an emotional level and I found myself wishing for their development throughout the book.

The writing is good as always. Never a dull moment but yes, the explicit scenes go on and on and on like it fills up some chapters entirely towards the second half of the book when all I needed was answers and more character development and secret revelations. And yes, it didn't do much in the end. And yes, expect lots of drama towards the end. beyah’s mother was a shitty person. i’ll give her that, and the idea that she never tried to step up and be a parent just infuriated me. and beyah calling her mom by her real name really shows how their dynamic was. however, i am so proud of beyah for getting over the situation and embracing what happened. i felt like it started to dragged on when she refused to tell her dad about her mother’s passing but i did like the outcome once it was revealed. and in part i think she helped beyah learn that her mom had a choice in the path of her life and samson had none. Beyah en el ferry de camino a la casa de la playa conoce a Samson, joven, hermoso, mujeriego y rico, pero ella puede notar que está tan roto como ella. Tienen un primer encuentro muy malo lo que hace que los siguientes encuentros sean igual de malos. Ella se quiere resistir a ser uno más de los ligues del verano de Samson, pero la atracción que sienten es indiscutible y se dan cuenta que tienen mucho en común, pero sus destinos están demasiados separados. My mouth falls open when it hits me. Samson remembered what I told him—that no one has ever come to any of my games. The characters absolutely stole my heart. Not just the main characters, but the secondary ones as well. They made the story even better than it already was.

Both of these characters are so broken, and two broken characters healing together... there isn't much I love more than that. This story is heavy and heartbreaking at times, but it's also beautiful. Beyah is such an incredibly strong character. She's loyal and determined and her story broke my heart. By the end of this book I was crying so hard, it was just beautiful. I thought I knew who I was, but I had no idea people can become different versions of themselves in different settings.
