Oof... I finally forced myself to finish reading Layla by Colleen Hoover today. Before I say what I think (although I am sure that first sentence is a giveaway), I want to mention that I really liked her books Verity and It Ends With Us and I loved Regretting You. I wasn't sure what to expect from Layla, because Verity was so different than her other two novels that I had already read. This one felt like she tried to take what worked in Verity a step further and it just fell flat. Layla is the story of a couple, Leeds and Layla, and the circumstances of their initial meeting, their whirlwind romance, and a terrifying encounter that leaves them both irrevocably changed. Just how changed they are is slowly revealed during the trip they take back to the Kansas bed and breakfast where they first met. I'll be the first to freely admit that paranormal is not my typical genre, but I have read and loved books that fall under this category se...
Just a bibliophile in Maine reading, and writing about, one book at a time...
