The Introvert's Book Club

Purchase My Rating: 3/5 Primary Genre: Contemporary Romance Blurb: Goodreads Choice AwardNominee for Readers' Favorite Romance (2014) When Tate Collins meets airline pilot Miles Archer, she knows it isn’t love at first sight. They wouldn’t even go so far as to consider themselves friends. The only thing Tate and Miles have in common is an undeniable mutual attraction. Once their desires are out in the open, they realize they have the perfect set-up. He doesn’t want love, she doesn’t have time for love, so that just leaves the sex. Their arrangement could be surprisingly seamless, as long as Tate can stick to the only two rules Miles has for her. Never ask about the past. Don’t expect a future. They think they can handle it, but realize almost immediately they can’t handle it at all. Hearts get infiltrated. Promises get broken. Rules get shattered. Love gets ugly. My Thoughts: Why does Colleen Hoover always make me cry? This relationship was toxic AF. The elevator scene where Miles ...

4/5 Stars This book contains a lot of thoughts on dealing with the death of a loved one but in a separate vein, about motherhood. 100% relatable for a mother or anyone who has lost someone close to them who they loved dearly. This novel has gotten a ton of hate from the CoHo hater club but it brought tears to my eyes several times. I found its view on death/afterlife to be poignant if not comforting. If nothing inspires you to read this book, at least take away this quote from it. I found it to be quite beautiful. "Maybe it doesn’t matter whether something is a coincidence or a sign. Maybe the best way to cope with the loss of the people we love is to find them in as many places and things as we possibly can. And in the off chance that the people we lose are still somehow able to hear us, maybe we should never stop talking to them." The thoughts on death and loss are at times quite poignant and if you’ve ever been a mother or lost someone that you loved, this book is heartbre...

3/5 Stars I just finished this book today, one more to go until I get to start my fall reading list ! Some thoughts on this book without giving away spoilers: 1. I didn't HATE the ending but I did feel as if there were a lot of unanswered questions . 2. The book started out slow and confusing . And it stayed that way for too long. I swear, I was past page 100 and I was still left feeling very confused. I continued reading, convinced there would be a reward at the end. That was a little bit of a letdown because I still felt a little confused when I finished. 3. I did really enjoy the plot of the story and the themes present in the writing.  4. The spice level is basically 0, especially for a Colleen Hoover novel. So if you prefer that, I wouldn't even bother with this book. 5. This book is marketed as a mystery but it didn't feel like it read like a mystery to me. Have you read this book? What did you think? Drop me a line in the comments below!👇 You can purchase this bo...
