Anyway, this was definitely a perfect sequel to the most amazing, awe-inspiring story I've had the pleasure to experience! He never thought that Lake would act like this and the whole "craving pumpkins"-thing lasted more than we all thought.

Dear YA authors: have you ever been manipulated or tricked into doing something you didn't want to do? This story is about realizing and holding on to love and about how love (both romantic love, friendship love, and family love) can be found in the most unlikely of places. Despite that Colleen Hoover's Slammed was a frustrating read, there was a part of me that found it strangely readable and enjoyable. Lake θα αρχίσει να αμφισβητεί τα πάντα στην σχέση τους και την ζωή τους με αποτέλεσμα να υπάρξει ένας επικός τσακωμός που θα θέσει την οικογένεια τους κοντά στον χωρισμό. As Layken and Will’s emotion-packed story continues, a stunning and unforeseen revelation about Will’s past leaves them questioning everything that they thought they knew about each other.The slam poetry was absolutely exquisite in this novel in particular, way better than in the first book, mainly because it was a lot more personal! Frankly, I was surprised to learn that there was a sequel, since the original novel ties up most of the loose ends and put the characters on a path toward happiness, despite the challenges they faced in the first novel.

The poetry doesn't take as much of a role in this book as in the first book, but it is there, and it is an essential part of the resolution of the issues in this book.I am totally going to have to follow Lake's mother's lead and make a vase full of origami stars containing words of advise for my children to pull out on days when things get difficult, whether I am dying of cancer or not. He had hoped that he would finally gain closure and be able to rid himself of his guilt the moment they were reconnected. Colleen Hoover gave us such a beautiful story and I’m completely in awe that this is her debut series.
