- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This was a perfect sequel! I loved that it was written from Will's POV. Such a beautiful love story!!!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I'm addicted to every book Colleen Hover writes! I am always spending my time buried in the characters
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Enjoyed the 2book about Lake and will. Thanks for the awesome audio books.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Good Book I enjoyed it. I would recommend it anyone.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The book is great!!!! But the narrator isn't very good. He's so bland!! Sorta sounds like Napolian Dynamites brother sometimes!!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5That was butterfly-ing amazing!! Anyone who isn’t reading this series is surely missing out on the love story of the century!
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5I loved the first book but this one really irritates me. Will is almost a narcissist and literally through out the book makes every little thing about him. It just gave big creep vibes by halfway thru and I really struggled to finish
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Love all her books !! She’s such an amazing writer !
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Solid book. Character development was very good. Young yet very mature characters and very likable.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Very rarely do I find a book so boring and annoying as this one. I found it lacking a compelling plot and I was annoyed by the characters. Maybe a teenager would find themselves interested without life experience to know better. As an older adult I found the entire thing ridiculous and the "romantic" behavior basically terrible.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I absolutely loved this book! Read it in a day!! Couldn’t put it down!!!
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5I didn't like it. I was slow and boring. It described very ordinary life and struggles. I finished it because I cared about main heroes but it's not as good as Slammed. Narrator speaks too slow.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5So glad that the author gifted her fans with the continuing story of Will & Lyke. Told from Will’s point of view this time, the story continues as their relationship faces new tests and new triumphs. New characters add to the book, proving once again sometimes the family we choose is the most special.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Loved this love story. I couldn’t put it down and loved the audiobook reader as he really goes above and beyond so you feel like you are in the room with the characters.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Great book, terrible narrator. He's probably a nice guy, but his style of reading made the book feel so monotone. I liked the book.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5These are so sweet and innocent love compared to some of Hoovers other novels but I enjoy them all
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I didn't like the first novel in this series as I felt it was too high schoolish and young teen but I absolutely loved this second one.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Sweet. Emotional. Cute.
The same as first book this was nice follow story and nice to see how main characters agre growing in to young adults, how that are managing responsibilities that not everyone have at that age. - Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Naturally I would want to hear the sequel involving Layken and Will. I enjoyed the book just out of curiosity of these two. Worth a listen. Personally, I enjoyed the narrator.
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5This book was a disappointment for me. I’ve read a few of Colleen Hover’s novels and really liked them. This one had no real climax, and I found the characters annoying. I kept listening waiting for it to get better, but I was never in a mode where “I can’t wait” to turn my book on.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I love this series so far! I love that the second book is a continued story but told by will. Usually the second book in Colleen Hoover series are told of the same story through another characters eyes. Definitely one of my favorite series so far besides It ends with us!
