Verity by Colleen Hoover
OK so this is the book that started all the Colleen Hoover stuff for me. My best friend recommended it a while ago. My sister started it and bought it for her mother-in-law before realizing what an inappropriate book it was to give to your mother-in-law. I waited for a while for it to be available … [Read more]

I just remember hearing about it on the radio (and I really only listen to NPR), and … [Read more]
