I finally gave in and read “It Ends with Us“ by Colleen Hoover. I saw people talking about it for months on TikTok, and at some point, it got annoying. I have no idea what I expected from the book, but I wasn't
ready for the plot. Although this is a good book, I still love and prefer ”Ugly Love” by Colleen Hoover.
Here are some of my favorite quotes from the books.
"There is no such thing as bad people. We're all just people who sometimes do bad things." (Page 17)
"I figured I might as well try it while I'm still young enough to bounce back from failure" (Page 52)
"You warned me. You said one time with you wouldn't be enough. You said you were like a drug. But failed to tell me you were the most addictive kind" (Page 123)
" This time we make love" (Page 179)
"Life is a funny thing. We only get so many years to live it, so we have to do everything we can to make sure those years are as full as they can be. We shouldn't waste time on things that might happen someday, or maybe even never." (Page 213)
"Maybe love isn't something that comes full circle. It just ebbs and flows, in and out, just like the people in our lives." (Page 217)
"But an act doesn't have to be forgiven in order to learn from it" (Page 243)
"And as humans, we can't expect to shoulder all of our pain. Sometimes we have to share it with the people who love us, so we don't come crashing down from the weight of it all." (Page 244)
"But sometimes the things that matter to you most are also the things that hurt you the most. And in order to get over that hurt, you have to sever all the extensions that keep you tethered to the pain." (Page 280)
