The amount of times “I don’t know” that was said in this video is so real because bestie I have no idea what she’s writing either😭🩵

[@kyokunskitty]

With the ending I kept expecting a stupid double twist like with Verity. As in it would turn out that Willow actually WAS Sable and was just an extremely good liar, and when Leeds drowned the body he actually killed Layla for good and allowed Sable to take over forever. But I think that might be too big brained for Hoover.

[@honeycinnamon]

The amount of trauma Layla(and her body) have been in should be illegal😭😭😭😭😭😭 because what in the hell?!?

[@jsamuel3986]

literally why didn’t she use the “brain injury” / possession as a way for leeds to have to re-teach layla about herself and have to fall in love w her all over again or something? like they’d go away to the air bnb for to have a controlled environment and he’d slowly realize the person he was with wasn’t layla in spirit or some shit??

And here I thought that her most hated title was November 9, I guess when an author's writing is so consistently problematic there are plenty of contenders for most hated title lol

[@llennzo]

let’s just say all of them are awful

[@Ayaesthetic]

It’s just that how could Layla ever trust him again and how could this story be viewed as romantic when he fucked her up while she was injured just bec he fell in love with someone else? Regardless that that someone turns out to be her and swoony shit that Colleen Hoover thought she was writing, it’s fucking problematic and straight up weird!!

Ok this may be a bad idea but hear me out… I’d love to hear you talk about something INCREDIBLY old. Like “high school/college required reading” type shit. Scarlet Letter, Walden, fuckin Madame Bovary (love to hear you talk about her she’s camp), that’s the kind of thing I’d love to hear you either rip apart, love, or just exclusively summarize. Anyway that’s my high girly thought. Listening to you summarize Walden would be cute as fuck.

When you posted reading those on goodreads I was so concerned. Thank god it was for a video

[@Angryoyster]

18:20 anytime an author includes a characters song lyrics in the book, I will never not sing it in the most out of tune, horrendous, over dramatic voice in my head. (Looking at you punk57) Like I’m sorry but when it’s only words and no tune giving I just decide to be a little silly 29:19. I actually really enjoyed how Daisy Jones and the six includes the songs, they are all in the back of the book so the plot isn’t interrupted.
