Rarely am I surprised when I read a novel, so when I do get surprised it quickly elevates the book from a 4 star review to a 5. These big twists are something I commend Colleen Hoover for because I never see them coming in her works and I love how she blows away my preconceived notions so easily. Well, I was completely wrong! Eventually all these clues add up to be the BIG secret reveal and once it was revealed, all my expectations for the plot were out the door. I really wasn’t sure what the underlying plot was going to be based on the synopsis of Hopeless but once I started reading I thought I had it all figured out based on the little tidbits we get here and there. You actually get to see them form a relationship that is more than physical chemistry and that is what we had here.īut the best part about this series is the many layers to this story. One thing I love about these YA/New Adult crossover books is that the leads don’t usually jump right into bed together. Their chemistry together was awesome throughout the entire book. I just loved her attitude about things and I loved her interactions with Holder. Once I read Slammed and saw what Hoover was capable of, I made sure I had the entire Hopeless series in my grasp before I moved them to the top of my to-read pile. And truth be told I probably wouldn’t have picked up for a little while longer if I hadn’t read–and loved–Hoover’s other YA novel, Slammed. So I purchased it for my Kobo but didn’t end up reading it until much, much later. When I first got into New Adult novels, Hopeless graced every recommended read list I encountered.
