Verity

Read this book in 1 full week, it was so addicting, well written and easy to follow. So many emotions, suspenseful, spicy, dramatic & thrilling! Definitely a psychological roller coaster and I love every bit of it. I hear there’s a movie coming out and cannot wait to watch it and I hope it lives up to this book. Hands down an amazing ready!

Colleen Hoover wrote this with so much intensity, imagery, emotions, anticipation, and thrill. Some points throughout the book I had to take a break because it was too much lol. Plot twists had me out my body. I didn’t know what was going to go wrong next tbh. A must read !!

Verity was packed with suspense and so many twists and turns that I truly couldn’t put it down. The way Colleen Hoover differentiates between Lowen’s voice and Verity’s manuscript was incredibly well done—it kept me completely engaged and constantly needing to know what was coming next. As a mother, there were moments that genuinely shocked me. The darkness of this story goes deeper than I expected, and there were several times my mouth literally dropped while reading. It’s intense, unsettling, and absolutely gripping. The character development was strong throughout. I felt everything—fear, anxiety, sorrow, even brief moments of happiness. That emotional depth made the thriller aspect hit even harder. Overall, the plot was phenomenal. If you’re looking for a true page-turner or a book to pull you out of a reading slump, this is it. This had been sitting on my TBR for a while, and I’m so glad I finally picked it up. The only piece that left me slightly disappointed was the ending. It definitely leaves you thinking without giving too much away—which I know some readers love—but I personally wanted just a bit more closure. I purchased my copy used from a seller here, and it arrived in perfect reading condition. I love giving books a second life and a new home—there’s something special about that.

Excellent writing by Colleen Hoover. So many twists and turns and descriptions that it felt real. It was easy to read because it kept my attention.

By far this book is one of Colleen Hoover's twisted, demented stories. It begins with a traumatic scene and the traumas never stop. It is a book that requires a box of tissues or boxes. A book that will cause you to pause and wonder but how? Why? How could she?? It is the perfect story for a case review in social work or psychology. Of you are into suspense this loaded with it. I never saw much of what happened coming. It kept me intrigued the whole time. In spite of how disturbing it could be. Yet, it is possible these things can happen in real life. Great read!

This book has some tough moments where maybe, like me, you’ll want to turn the light on because you alone and feel uneasy and unnerved. But it’s well written, thoughtful with great character development and page turning moments. It is well worth the read.

I really enjoyed reading this, but the ending left me with so many questions lol. I loved following Lowen and her journey through that creepy a** house. I enjoyed the book a lot, especially Jeremy’s character. I honestly had no clue why people said this was the worst book they’d ever read. I didn’t know what to expect going in, but it definitely wasn’t this. The dark stuff with the kids was crazy. At one point I questioned how this was even published to the public by how dark some parts are. I don’t want to give anything away to new readers, so all I can say is: if you love creeping dread mixed with romance, this book is for you. The ending does give you a happy-ish-ever-after, but with an unsettling element where you know something wrong might happen later, even if it’s not on page. Anyway, I liked this book. It was a solid four-star read for me. All I have to say is Verity is despicable and a crazy woman. The ending felt a tad bit rushed to me, and I would’ve liked a little more of a wrap-up, but I guess the author’s goal was to leave readers with a happily-ever-after but with dread at the same time. It was almost a romance horror novel, which was interesting.

‘Verity’ was topsy-turvy. The plot involved head-popping action, an interesting proposal, moving in, doing research, finding an autobiography, struggling to read the disturbing find, learning eye-popping facts, falling for the employer, noticing strange goings on, having a mutual attraction, getting to the bottom of the situation, being side-tracked, struggling with possible truths, and moving on. Moreover, Lowen, the protagonist, seemed to struggle with the information presented throughout the work, especially whether her employer believed her or not. Additionally, I appreciated the author’s suspenseful and vivid descriptions, which set a menacing tone. Overall, I liked the riveting narrative.

Tjejen gillade den, då är jag nöjd :)

I loved this book so much. The plot twist, the characters just kept me glued to it to know what happens next. I'm still conflicted between team manuscript or team letter. When you pick this book up DON'T READ IT AT NIGHT!! It will creep you out. A bit of SPOILER! Verity is an author and is married to Jeremy and they have 3 children but the twins die and things take a turn for the worst. Verity is bed ridden after her accident and can't finish her remaining 3 series,so Jeremy talks with her publisher to hire another author to finish the series for her and he goes to the meeting where he meets Lowen a small author who just lost her mother and is looking for a job to distract herself. Lowen takes the offer Jeremy has negotiated with her and in order to start the series, she needs to familiarise herself with Verity's work. Lowen agrees to stay in there house for the weekend to get the notes she needs only to come across Verity's manuscript that was never to be read by anyone and things take a turn after she realizes she's is falling for Jeremy and is conflicted whether to give him the manuscrips to read or keep them to herself, what unravels next is shocking,,, It's a must read for thriller lovers.

Libro in inglese. Acquistato come regalo, molto apprezzato!!

I love it 📚This is the first thriller book that I have read ... and I enjoyed it ! the twist! si good!

je suis fan de Colleen Hoover, j'ai donc précommander ce livre en version originale dès sa sortie et je l'ai fini en un week-end. Pour faire court ce livre est parti d'une remarque de l'auteur car ses livres étaient régulièrement classé en thriller psychologique sur amazon alors qu'il s'agit en général de romances avec de nombreux rebondissements parce que Colleen Hoover adore jouer avec ses lecteurs. Donc nous voici avec un vrai thriller psychologique. Il commence avec un accident, un monsieur qui se fait écraser, ce qui donne le ton du roman. Lowen qui est une auteure rencontre le mari d'une autre auteure dans des circonstances particulières et elle accepte d'écrire la fin des romans de cette femme, qui a eu un accident et qui n'est visiblement plus en état d'écrire. Elle va donc vivre chez cet homme et se lier d'amité avec lui alors qu'il a déjà connu plusieurs tragédies, il a perdu ses deux filles. On va lire parallèmement d'un chapitre à l'autre, la vie de Lowen et celui de Verity l'auteur handicapée, car Colleen adore alterner les points de vues des personnages. On va découvrir Vérity et ses terribles secrets. J'ai encore été absorbée par l'histoire, je me suis demandé ou est ce qu'on allait et la fin est terrible! Car encore une fois j'avais oublié le goût de Colleen pour les rebondissements! Un excellent roman à lire lorsque l'on aime les thrillers. Il y a un côté inquietant dans ce roman car on a l'impression que Lowen perd la tête ou que Verity n'est pas vraiment telle qu'elle est sensé être.
