Losing Hope by Colleen Hoover
4.0
⭐️ 4
Hopeless, but from Holder's perspective. Overall, really liked it, though it took a little longer to get into it.
The Good
- You get to find out more of Holder's backstory.
- I enjoyed getting to learn a little more about what happens after Hopeless ends.
- I felt like I got more closure than I did with Hopeless.
- Holder and Breckin's friendship was fun.
The Reason I Docked a Star
- I would have enjoyed more new scenes. Most of the book were scenes we already read from Sky's perspective. While I understand that for some scenes, I don't know we needed all of them from both POVs.
- I would have liked to learn more about Holder's life before the plot of Hopeless starts and he meets Sky. It felt rushed, and I wanted to know more.
Read If…
- You liked Hopeless.
Read (But Not Quite Yet) If...
- You just finished Hopeless. For the reasons mentioned above, I think I would have enjoyed it more if I had taken a longer break between reading them. I'd recommend waiting at least a month or two before diving into Losing Hope.
Don't Read If…
- You haven't read/enjoyed Hopeless.
- You hate Holder.
