Summary
Before It Ends with Us, it started with Atlas. Colleen Hoover tells fan favourite Atlas’s side of the story and shares what comes next in this long-anticipated sequel to the #1 Sunday Times bestseller It Ends with Us.
Lily and her ex-husband, Ryle, have just settled into a civil co-parenting rhythm when she suddenly bumps into her first love, Atlas, again. After nearly two years separated, she is elated that for once, time is on their side, and she immediately says yes when Atlas asks her on a date.
But her excitement is quickly hampered by the knowledge that, though they are no longer married, Ryle is still very much a part of her life—and Atlas Corrigan is the one man he will hate being in his ex-wife and daughter’s life.
Switching between the perspectives of Lily and Atlas, It Starts with Us picks up right where the epilogue for the bestselling phenomenon It Ends with Us left off. Revealing more about Atlas’s past and following Lily as she embraces a second chance at true love while navigating a jealous ex-husband, it proves that “no one delivers an emotional read like Colleen Hoover” (Anna Todd, bestselling author).

Beautiful … sigh
I loved this book. I have listened to it one day and will undoubtedly listen to it again. Yes everything is neatly wrapped up, but it needed to be - Lily and Atlas deserved this book! 100% recommend!

The perfect sequal
I was apprehensive the second book would not live up to the standard of the first. Pointless worry. The perfect conclusion. Colleen did justice to not only the characters, but to the real people who live these experiences. Colleen set an example and encouragement that anyone can break the cycle, without ignoring Lily's privileged position. There is always hope.

I had only recently read 'It ends with us' so I was delighted to find this and really needed that story to play out. Such a lovely, heart warming read.

Predictable
It was lovely for Colleen to write an ending for all of us, especially one that we all wanted. But I do think it was quite predictable and not exactly ‘needed’.

Not a bad read.
After reading “it ends with us” I was happy to read the follow up.
It was a simple story with no real twists or turns that you might think would be thrown in.
The story was predictable but easy and a nice time passer.
The narration by the female is weird with her “male voice” but otherwise it is well paced and easy to listen to.

Complicated lives can be simplified through patience and perseverance
I love the characters, my favourite is Theo, he makes me laugh a lot. It’s interesting how perseverance can pay off, even when there are multiple hurdles, that always continue. Even in the end.
