I admired Sky's bravery to face all of those things. From going inside to that car, it takes a little bit of a courage to run away from that place. Karen has become a good mom for raising her as a smart woman. Dean must have love them so much that he's willing to do what's the best for her, for them. Though I felt like they're robbed of justice because why did his father just did that?! But fairly, good ending for all.

Sometimes discovering the truth can leave you more hopeless than believing the lies. That is what seventeen-year-old Sky realizes after she meets Dean Holder. A guy with a reputation that rivals her own and an uncanny ability to invoke feelings in her she's never had before. He terrifies her and captivates her all in the span of just one encounter, and something about the way he makes her feel sparks memories from a past that she wishes could stay buried.

Tamara Wood

This is what I needed after the last several coho books I have read. This storyline is strong and was compelling. It kept me interested and even when I was guessing what would happen I was still enjoying it as it happened. It still got me on one plot point but it was still so good. Definitely one of the better ones and glad I read it.

Would you rather know a truth that makes you feel hopeless, or keep believing the lies? Colleen Hoover returns with the spellbinding story of two young people with devastating pasts who embark on a passionate, intriguing journey to discover the lessons of life, love, trust - and above all, the healing power that only truth can bring. Sky, a senior in high school, meets Dean Holder, a guy with a promiscuous reputation that rivals her own. From their very first encounter, he terrifies and captivates her. Something about him sparks memories of her deeply troubled past, a time she's tried so hard to bury. Though Sky is determined to stay far away from him, his unwavering pursuit and enigmatic smile break down her defences and the intensity of their relationship grows. But the mysterious Holder has been keeping secrets of his own, and once they are revealed, Sky is changed forever and her ability to trust may be a casualty of the truth. Only by courageously facing the stark revelations can Sky and Holder hope to heal their emotional scars and find a way to live and love without boundaries. Hopeless is a novel that will leave you breathless, entranced, and remembering your own first love.

The plot twist made me rate this book as it is. It was a good book, but I would not recommend this as the first Colleen Hoover book. The starting was kind of dragging... and I knew there would be a plot twist, but I didn't expect it to be long... It's not bad though.

Windy Gaches

wow!

I was loving the way the book was reading and then a twist! Another twist! More twists! A perfectly written tale; that no one should survive. Thank you Colleen for telling a story so painful, so real, and with so much passion. “Hopeless” penetrates the soul and makes us a little more thankful, brave, love more fiercely and most of all… believers in just how powerful our protective instincts are for others AND ourselves.

I laughed. I cried. I sympathized. I lived. I loved. 

Every piece of this story is just so heartbreaking and heartwarming at the exact same time. Sharing not only the love but also the pain makes the story of Holder and Sky more precious. He can feel her. She can feel him. And that is how we know the depth of their love. 

I actually, literally can't put this down. I just want to read it all in one sitting. All the secrets and revelations, I was in awe! The connections with everyone in the story. The meaning behind   HOPELESS . The concept of having the fate of Holder and Sky being connected ever since they were kids, which is one of the concepts I really really loved. I loved everything about this.

Objectively, this book was not good imo. BUT it fulfilled my easy read fix and I sped through all 400 pages. That said, I will definitely be picking up more Colleen Hoover books but I wouldn't recommend this one.

Luckily, I don't have any buyers remorse because it was included in Kindle Unlimited.

Final thoughts... I'm too old for this book, which is what I get for not reading the synopsis before starting it. Don't make that same mistake.

Elizabeth Van Deusen

I don’t really know how to review this. I liked this book but for whatever the reason it took me at least until the first half of the book had been read to really get into it. But the book itself and the storyline was good.

Alecx Motus

Oh my goodness. This book. It is seriously everything that I hoped for and more. It tore my heart and put it back together a million times. I was skeptical when I saw how well rated this book was. I get it now.

3.7 stars.

Not one of my favorites, but this story is a story that would stick with you for the rest of your life. I honestly loved that there was more to this book than just a sappy love story, that it had more depth than I realized. It went from basic to complex gradually, and it was a pretty nice adventure. Suffice it to say, I was pretty absorbed. There was never a dull page, except maybe for the sappy part where their relationship was developing. That part was too cheesy for me, I guess.

★★★ // reminds me so much of Twilight and Fifty Shades, but this wins by a hair in terms of having a more decent writing and plot.

honya

i fucking loved this book. sky and dean have a special place in my heart and i need what they have. ANYTHING FOR WHAT THEY HAVE😭 anyways, sky‘s backstory had me shook and sobbing wtf this is def one of my fav coho books

A good mystery but some of the romance was a little dragging 

Elizabeth Denny

Even though the story was good and an important story to tell, i still didn't connect with the characters as much as i'd like. I don't know why it is like that

I found their romance to be cliche at times and the smut didn't help much either. 

However i do think there are things to take from this book, like Sky's backstory the way she had suppressed her trauma without knowing it or the connection between Karen and Sky.

This book had me on the edge of my seat the whole time. I absolutely loved reading it, you never knew what was gonna happen next. Holder was the perfect fit for Sky and I’m so glad they found each other. Beautiful story with some difficult issues. 

Maggie Hotmer

Very high school romance with a hard left turn twist

“The sky is always beautiful. Even when it’s dark or rainy or cloudy, it’s still beautiful to look at. It’s my favorite thing because I know if I ever get lost or lonely or scared, I just have to look up and it’ll be there no matter what...and I know it’ll always be beautiful."

I should never let the thoughts of other people take over. Stalker-ish shit aside, this book was amazing. Now, I can't wait to get to the second book.

i wish i could erase this book from my brain 

Amelia

Had an absolutely amazing love story. The plot was insane and while I predicted a small part of it, I couldn't even begin to imagine that the rest would happen.

This was a little cringy/cheesy at times, but other than that — I loved this book. 

The story was not what I was expecting, and some of the plot points caught me totally off guard (which I love)

Worth a read - and I’ll for sure check out the rest of the series!

I love how the story got me so hooked that I thought I was living everything that was happening
