Nevertheless, Ryle rigid aversion to commitment poses uncertainty.

The author Hoover created a great sympathetic protagonist in the lead character Lily which immediately won me over. Lily seems like a person within our circle, a friend, a sister, or a colleague found readily. Her stories strike through to a core level of relatability, reflecting the lives of much of women, past, present, and probably future.
While the novel It Ends With Us may be a very personal story for some people especially due to the subject of family abuse and emotional abuse for this, I just want to state a trigger warning. However, it is important to mention that Colleen Hoover approaches these delicate topics with a great deal of respect, drawing from her own life experiences.
Hoover capacity to be impartial despite such a difficult and tragic past is extraordinary and I applaud her for this kind of approach.
It Ends With Us is a broken love tale. There is too much sadness in this single. Hoover appears to stand out in this aspect because the umbrella theme forms a base for the entire narrative direction of her novel. Hoover delves into the battle in love with Ryle and Atlas, both male leads as well.
This perceive writer also peers into the world of Lily allowing us to know about this woman inner pain, opposite emotions and changing mood. A universal feel tale that effortlessly makes a way to your heart, It Ends With Us is a novel with an important message underlying its themes of strength, choice, depth and power.
