For this week’s book review, I had actually read the book
pretty quickly since was just released yesterday. It is a new book by the author that I had done
a previous post for.
Verity by Colleen
Hoover
I have been a fan of Colleen Hoover’s books since reading Ugly Love. Verity
is a departure from her other books as they contain really dark moments and it
is her first suspense novel.
Lowen Ashleigh is a struggling writer, who is given the
chance to co-author Verity Crawford’s last few books in her successful
series. She is given the task from her
husband, Jeremy Crawford, while Verity has been unable to write from an injury
that left her immobile. As Lowen begins
to place herself in Jeremy and Verity’s life, she begins to learn the truth
about the death of the couple’s twin daughters from Verity’s unpublished and
unseen autobiography. Not only does
Lowen find out what happened, but she is given the difficult decision if she should
show this to Jeremy, or have it remain hidden as she starts to develop feelings
toward the grieving husband.
I enjoyed reading Verity
as it is completely different than her other books, and the suspense had kept
me on edge as I was wanting to find out what happens to these characters. I did find the ending a little bit
predictable, which has been different from other books. And I felt that it was more sexually graphic
than her other books. So, word of
caution to younger Hoovers fans that this is very explicit.
