You’ll never see me say no to a Colleen Hoover book that I haven’t read yet.Published by Audible Studios on August 19, 2020

As always, Colleen Hoover has expertly woven together her plots, her characters personalities, and the romance of it all. Overall, Heart Bones was an extremely fast read for me (I finished it in a few hours), but it was enjoyable the whole way through. The whole entire plot led up to these moments and I would’ve felt cheated had Beyah not gone to college. With her in law school and him getting out of jail, when they reunited, everything just felt right. Samson was super noble, of course, and wanted her to go achieve everything that she had worked so hard for. Once he got arrested and everything was revealed, I was seriously hoping that Beyah would choose to stay there for him, yet, in a way, I was hoping that she wouldn’t. He’d jump from house to house, but somehow always found a way to repay his unsuspecting landlords. What I mean by the plot twist, of course, was finding out that Samson wasn’t rich and that he was living in houses that other people owned. I loved it, to be completely honest, and each decision made after the reveal felt like exactly what needed to happen happened. When the ending came around, the plot twist caught me by surprise (as Colleen Hoover always does). I identified with her fun-loving, optimistic attitude, so I loved any scene she showed up in. My favorite character? 100% Sarah, no doubt.

Her relationship with Samson was believable and I rooted for them the whole time. I loved Beyah even through her questionable decision-making. I didn’t particularly like Regretting You, so getting the romance back in Heart Bones was amazing. Heart Bones was refreshing after finishing Regretting You.
