                            Reminders of Him

                                                        By Colleen Hoover 

    There are very few books that I read in one day; Reminders of Him is one of those books. Even though the beginning started off slow, it picked up in the middle.

    I am huge fan of Colleen Hoover, everything she has written, I have! There is something about how she writes such complex characters that catches your attention and keeps you intrigued in them, right till the last page.

    Reminders of him gave me so many emotions, I was angry, anxious, sad and hurt all at once. The story line about having to trust in people’s intentions and having to watch the tail of grief unfold, was what kept me turning the pages.  The vulnerability in this book is beautifully written.

    The story of two narratives to the same horrific accident is moving! Having different people in pain and different point of views telling the story, makes for an interesting read. I liked how Colleen Hoover caught the different point of views to each side of an accident that took the life of someone who was loved by many. The ways she writes allows you to feel for each character, and to feel the loss in different ways. However, the thing that makes this book is watching two stories of the same tragedy come together, and watching the characters heal!

    How Colleen Hoover wrote each character having pain was intriguing, but what was catching was how each character allowed the other to feel their pain and made room for their pain within their healing.

    The romance within this book isn’t the main focus, but is the perfect addiction to the story line. The romance is a sweet, cute meet moments, that have some intense and steamy moments.

    I would recommend to any one that wants a good storyline with a side of much needed romance.
