It Ends With Us by Colleen Hoover hits the big screen this week
Colleen Hoover fans are eagerly awaiting the release of It Ends With Us in cinemas. The film, set for release on August 9th, is based on the author’s bestselling novel of the same name.
The book has swiftly become one of the most popular women’s fiction books of our time and we’re not surprised.
Hoover has amassed quite the fan club with readers speeding through all of her work.
We’re forever looking for a novel that we’ll devour as much as It Ends With Us and we think we’ve found one that lives up to the hype.
American author Taylor Jenkins Reid’s book One True Loves is up there with Hoover’s bestsellers.
The emotional and gripping novel is a perfect page-turner if you’re a fan of Hoover’s work.
Personally, we think her stories and characters are just that little bit better than Hoover’s but we’ll let you be the judge of that.
One True Loves follows Emma Blair as she comes to terms with the disappearance of childhood sweetheart Jesse.
Emma is devastated but manages to find love years later when she returns to her childhood home, but Jesse, who has been missing in the Pacific for years, returns when she’s about to fall for someone else.
