@ahhhh2430

44w↑13

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again her books when you look at it from a writers perspective, she has good writing techniques. It’s just again the men in all of her books are toxic. If someone can understand the fact that the men are toxic, then it shouldn’t matter whether there a teenager, an adult or a three year-old. I actually enjoy Hoover’s books for this reason( She teaches what toxic relationships can look like. It may not be the best kind of teaching, but she does teach it). As well, when you look at this generation of teenage girls, they’re not as naïve as some of the past generations, statistically, this generation is the lesser naïve out of all of them. You’ll have to understand I’m not just teenage girls read them a few teenage boys and adults also read her books. Again, statistically most of Colleen Hoover books actually end up going to adult females.- just to restate that I don’t disagree with you at all but knowing the things that I know and doing the research that I’ve done her books aren’t that bad for teaching what toxic relationships can look like if you want to know what toxic relationships can look like.

To be fair: he set her dad’s car on fire and felt absolutely horrible after finding out there was a girl in that house when it caught on fire, and he never would’ve set the car on fire if he hadn’t of been grieving over his mother’s suicide (true he had the wrong idea of why she killed herself but he “saw red” as some would say ig).
He did not ruin her career, she said herself that she found out later in life that she preferred TEACHING acting over the actual acting and it made her happy.
And he didn’t cheat on her, not much of an excuse but: she gave him the idea that she didn’t want him anymore, he wasn’t mature enough in the moment to realize that she was leaving for his own good at the time, in his eyes, she “broke up” with him, when it was all miscommunication.

The reason her books give me the ick us because she labels them as romance, which they are not. They are literally women’s fiction novels with very toxic love interests, and tons of abuse, and then a happy ending. I’ll never forget the fact that she tried to SELL A COLOURING BOOK for it ends with us, a book about DOMESTIC VIOLENCE. Tells me a lot about the kind of person she is.

I have personally never read this book but I read It ends with us because opinions were so controversial. I hated it. I removed every Colleen Hoover book from my reading list. The way she portrays characters in her book and assumes that specific type of behaviour is ok when it isn’t is absolutely disgusting. I think that she shouldn’t promote this kind of stuff. I also was told that her son sexually assaulted someone but she hid it and now supports sexual assault but I’m not sure about that part.
