Heart Bones: Colleen Hoover

Product Information

Heart Bones takes off from the start with the main character, Beyah Grim, discovering her mother’s body in their home following an overdose. Beyah is forced to call her dad, who’d recently skipped her graduation, and ask to stay with him until she leaves for college. She did this without telling him about her mother’s death or the volleyball scholarship she received, claiming that “he’d done nothing to help, and he shouldn’t get credit” for her success. If there's nothing inside a heart that can break, why does it feel like mine is going to snap in half when it's time for me to move next month? Does your heart not feel like that? I shake my head again, because even if family counted, my answer would remain the same. My father barely knows me. My mother wasn’t capable of loving me. Feelings of guilt and remorse have plagued the young Dean, and he searches for a sense of peace in his dilemma with Sky. When they finally reconnect, a greater pain embraced the young man. For the second installment in the series, readers learn more about Holder’s youth, and his search for redemption in the act of saving another. Connecting with Colleen Hoover Se ha vuelto una costumbre. Los libros de Coleen Hoover son una aventura (o me gustan o no me gustan) y una subida a una montaña rusa (las emociones fuertes no faltan en sus libros).

Beyah grew up in poverty with her single, drug-addicted mother. Food was never a guarantee for her and she was left to fend for herself way too young. Now, at 19, she has a volleyball scholarship waiting for her in Pennsylvania, but with her mother dying of an overdose and nowhere to go, she’s forced to live with her estranged father. So she joins her father and her new stepmother and stepsister to a beach house on a Texas peninsula. Her next door neighbor is rich boy Samson, who hides behind his camera with his secrets and mysteries. And it’s on the beach that Beyah learns what it’s like to trust, to love, and be loved, not just with Samson, but with a family she never expected. Her mouth is hanging slightly open, revealing yellow slivers of chipped and rotted teeth. It’s like she was in the middle of a sentence when the life slipped out of her.

For example, I enjoyed Beyah’s relationship with her step-sister. Immediately, in the book, Sara becomes someone that Beyah is honest with. I found that intriguing, and I like how the book didn’t paint them rivals or enemies. Another relationship that I enjoyed with the friendship between Samson and Majorie. The only time I cried during this book was because of them. Their relationship had such a full circle moment, and unexpectedly brought me to tears.

Review: Heart Bones by Colleen Hoover - What Is That Book About Review: Heart Bones by Colleen Hoover - What Is That Book About

sara was genuinely the sweetest character. her presence was just so nice in the book and she was always able to make it feel better. i have to be honest, i was also a bit hesitant to accept her much like beyah was when she was introduced to the book but over time she grew on me and i held no hatred for her. she was a fun person and i just loved that about her. she was also extremely selfless and accepted beyah for who she was, even if they did not have the same vibe.The walls of a trailer house aren’t made of the same stuff walls in a normal house are made of. In a trailer house, the walls crumble beneath your fingernails like chalk if you so much as scratch at them. The writing is good as always. Never a dull moment but yes, the explicit scenes go on and on and on like it fills up some chapters entirely towards the second half of the book when all I needed was answers and more character development and secret revelations. And yes, it didn't do much in the end. And yes, expect lots of drama towards the end. Upon arriving in Texas, without any clothes or belongings, her father drives her to the home he shares with his new wife. This home is far cry from the trailer she lived in with her mother, existing alongside beach homes where the upper class live. Later, Beyah discovers her neighbor to be Samson, a boy she’d met on the journey to her father’s home—whom she’d falsely accused of trying to pay for “services” when he was trying to be kind by offering her money. Heart Bones is essentially a beach read, Colleen Hoover style, which means it’s heartbreaking and intense. And since the only requirement I have for beach reads is that it takes place on the beach, this book worked for me! And even though I just said it was heartbreaking, Heart Bones was surprisingly an easy, enjoyable read. It didn’t hit quite as emotional as I’m used to from this author but it does have a twist towards the end in classic CoHo style. I wish it could’ve been longer because there was so much to explore near the end but I did like the unique storyline and the heroine’s journey in discovering love and family. For the characters in Colleen Hoover’s 2020 novel, heart bones are things you grow when you fall in love that make an actual broken heart possible. Yeah, okay.
