It Starts With Us

I am a novice reader, having completed this novel as my 4th novel, but I won't complain a single bit! The whole novel series journey is beautiful, like some parts are rough, some are very beautiful, that explains life as well! I will really recommend this novel series to anyone, specially 18+, because there are some contents which shouldn't be for underage.😅 Nonetheless, in adults, this series truly explains the meaning of giving respect to anyone and accepting their past! Atlas's character is truly amazing, his demeanor in difficult situations is just wow! I am really moved by him and want to become like him! I will definitely recommend this novel to girls/women, if they want to know the meaning of respect, whereas for boys/men, how to be like Atlas and not be like Ryle a single bit!

I liked "It ends with us" but this one is lighter, shows how you can:- take care of your kid/sibling- while managing a full-time business- dealing with toxic ex-family- AND still be in love.One of the reasons why I think the book is doing so well. No doubts, it deserves the love it has been getting. Go pick it up folks.

It read this book for Atlas, he's a sweetheart, beautiful love story of atlas and lily. My heart is full.

It Start With Us: By Colleen HooverI read Collen Hoover 5 to 6 novels and I was not a huge fan of her still reading this one .It’s a sequel to It End With Us .But this novel author clearly give pictures of domestic violence and how it’s affecting the children .I prefer novels which give pleasure to read and valuable message to the society .what’s happening in the society despite of time and situation, an exemplary author can convey to the readers as novels short stories etc.It’s the story of Atlas a chef and Lily the florist .Lily is a single parent with having a daughter who is turning one .Lily and her ex-husband Ryle settled into a civil parenting system ,she is not comfortable leaving her daughter Emerson with Ryle because of the assaulting and abusing she got for him.

Slowly their relation changes and Lily is afraid of how Ryle react to this and the trauma she is going through is almost everywhere we can see in the society but we call in different names .When we are mad ,sad, grumpy we need a hug ,a shoulder to cry or a soothing voice to boost us up all humans in the world need and author pictured Atlas in such way all of us need a partner like that in some point of our life.It can be a friend or a husband anything to trust on . Atlas friends in the story tells a lot about the values of friendship.Story goes in a way which tell everything through Lily and Atlas Past of Atlas how difficult it was with his step father and how his mom behaved to him when he was 15 ,these characters made each of us to think .Any kids have highest hope about their family when it gets scattered the outcome will be beyond words.

Tiny seedling with 2 branches 2 brothers.Lily with the support from her sister in law talking her past with Ryle and getting over it with strong rules and beginning a new life with her daughter and Atlas .Everything ends in a sad note in one side but again life starts with a new ray of hope …. A new nest of 2 brothers and a family for Atlas and Lily ……

‘’Sometimes people think if they love a broken person enough, they can be what finally repairs them, but the problem with that is the other person just ends up broken, too.’’ (CoHo knows 😢)I was so worried before I picked up the book because of the unrealistic expectations I have for it but….. I feel so complete! You did the right thing writing this book and making it so wholesome. And you know what? I am already expecting a novella or something to know more about Josh! (People, read the book and try to know the good, the bad and the ugly characters).I am so glad this book happened! It gave me a great chance to read the first book again and I am so grateful.For those who don’t know what it’s like to have people close to you who are toxic and harmful I don’t know about you but this book means a lot and at least tells what it’s like to have someone looming around to hurt you according to their whims whenever they feel like it. It’s a cycle and they are never going to change.The story is so good and has a very realistic tone from the beginning till the very end.And what can I say about Alyssa, Theo, Theo’s father, Marshall (People, read the book to know them). (Sigh! I love them so much!)And dear CoHo, if possible I would love it very much if you write a complete story of Theo and his love story! ***coughs in queer*** That would be a game changer! I promise!And if you haven’t hated anyone as much you want to, please hate Tim, Sutton and Ryle. (People, read…. Ok! Ok! I’m leaving…. But pick up the book okie?!!!!)Damn…. I think I believe in romance again: the realistic, mature, yet fictional perfect romance all over again!

The story picks up from where the previous book left off, focusing on the complex relationships between Lily Bloom, her ex-husband Ryle, and her first love, Atlas Corrigan.The novel maintains a sensitive and realistic portrayal of complex issues like domestic abuse, trauma, and healing.

Good book for the people who loved books.
