NOW A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE STARRING BLAKE LIVELY AND JUSTIN BALDONI! From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of It Starts with Us and All Your Perfects, a “brave and heartbreaking novel that digs its claws into you and doesn’t let go, long after you’ve finished it” (Anna Todd, New York Times bestselling author) about a young woman in a new relationship who can’t stop thinking about her first love.Lily hasn’t always had it easy, but that’s never stopped her from working hard for the life she wants. She’s come a long way from the small town where she grew up—she graduated from college, moved to Boston, and started her own business. And when she feels a spark with a gorgeous neurosurgeon named Ryle Kincaid, everything in Lily’s life seems too good to be true. Ryle is assertive, stubborn, maybe even a little arrogant. He’s also sensitive, brilliant, and has a total soft spot for Lily. And the way he looks in scrubs certainly doesn’t hurt. Lily can’t get him out of her head. But Ryle’s complete aversion to relationships is disturbing. Even as Lily finds herself becoming the exception to his “no dating” rule, she can’t help but wonder what made him that way in the first place. As questions about her new relationship overwhelm her, so do thoughts of Atlas Corrigan—her first love and a link to the past she left behind. He was her kindred spirit, her protector. When Atlas suddenly reappears, everything Lily has built with Ryle is threatened. An honest, evocative, and tender novel, It Ends with Us is “a glorious and touching read, a forever keeper. The kind of book that gets handed down” (USA TODAY).

"I couldn’t stop listening to this book throughout this book I was crying throughout this whole entire book. I have watched the movie that correlates to this book. To be honest. I liked the book better than the movie. Can’t wait to read the second part of this saga."

"Look, I get the hate this book got, but here's why I don't care. It was a f***ing good book, and I couldn't put it down. Not all books need to be making a politically correct statement. It is fiction, after all. I don't support domestic abuse any more than I did before reading this book... I also feel like CoHo wrote the characters as deeply flawed people for a reason. It's realistic and gut-wrenching, as it should be."

"I understand the backstory on the book, but Lily would’ve been better off just leaving Ryle early in the book because she knew her feelings for Atlas were still there and she clearly showed all her feelings by keeping the things she kept. In the end she does acknowledge about the items, but it was too late if she would’ve been straight forward about it at first no events would happen that had happened and she would’ve been with Atlas from beginning."

"It was such a great story; it shed light on the emotions and pain not always talked about. Also, the ending felt empowering as Lily continues to prove her strength all throughout the book."

"This is my third book by Colleen Hoover. I was a bit skeptical after Ugly Love but decided to try again and wasn't disappointed with Verity. The author has a way with putting these characters within the realm of possibility. She uses her own past to do so and I believe it gives these books much greater depth. In just a few chapters I was 100% invested. <br/><br/>Still I am going to be a jerk for a minute and mention that this was labeled as a romance and a romance it was not. It was character development above all else. A brave message from someone who has experienced love at it's worst. And once you realize the title it will stay with you. Except going into it believing it to be a romance made unfulfilled as a reader in the end.<br/><br/>Honestly I hated to love this book. To the point where I wished I never read it. Why because I'm one of those jerks who has never been in that situation and from my point of view the decision was easy. Yes I know that is ignorance but not entirely and I won't apologize for it. Still I enjoyed the book and I know there are people out their who need to hear this message. <br/><br/>I enjoyed the feeling of young love. Really I see the author putting so much of herself in the story and I appreciate that. I know it mustn't be easy."
