Before anyone crucifies me, *I DID NOT BUY THIS BOOK.* I found this book on the shelf at my friend's house, asked if I could borrow it and make notes.

So that brings me to why I wanted to look into this book. I heard a rumor that Colleen Hoover dropped a tribute to Justin Baldoni in her sequel to *It Ends with Us.*.. turns out it's true and I found it.

What a backstabbing POS. She chose him to sell the rights, she knew he was going to direct, she told him to play Ryle, she honored him and his book in the sequel, and then backstabbed at the first opportunity to be part of the "cool" girls club without question? What is wrong with her?

Anyhow, I still have this book right now, and wanted to see if you all want me to *hate read it* like I did with *Woman Down*.
