Personally, I love her addictive plots, complex characters, and jaw-dropping twists that leave you reeling. She has become a go-to author for readers everywhere!
In this post, we’ll go over Colleen Hoover’s books, in the order they were published to help you choose your next.
1. Slammed (2012)
“Question everything. Your love, your religion, your passion. If you don’t have questions, you’ll never find answers.” – Slammed.
2. Point of Retreat (2012)
“There are moments in every relationship that define when two people start to fall in love.
A first glance
A first smile
A first kiss
A first fall …”
― Point of Retreat.
3. Hopeless (2012)
“Not everyone gets a happily every after. Life is real and sometimes it’s ugly and you just have to learn how to cope.” – Hopeless. The narrative is raw and direct, dealing with heavy themes like abuse and forgiveness, making it one of Hoover’s most talked-about works. “Sometimes two people need to fall apart to realize how much they need to fall back together.” – This Girl. “To miss someone, that means you were privileged enough to have them in your life, to begin with.” – Losing Hope. “In reality, people are who they are and they’ll never really change.” – Finding Cinderella. Despite its short length, Finding Cinderella is a fan favorite for its sweet and hopeful story. “We try so hard to hide everything we’re really feeling from those who probably need to know our true feelings the most.” – Maybe Someday. “God gives us the ugliness so we don’t take the beautiful things in life for granted.” – Ugly Love. Hoover skillfully balances passion and pain, creating a story that is both heartbreaking and romantic. “I think it takes being loved in order to know how to love,” – Maybe Not. “There are people you meet that you get to know, and then there are people you meet that you already know.” – Confess. As their relationship grows, secrets from their pasts threaten to pull them apart. Confess is a beautifully written story about the power of truth and the risks we take for love. On November 9, Hoover crafts a love story with a twist. The novel follows Fallon and Ben, who meet on the same day each year for five years. As their lives change, so does their relationship, leading to a surprising and emotional conclusion. November 9 is a unique and compelling story that keeps readers guessing until the very end. “You’ll never be able to find yourself if you’re lost in someone else.” – November 9. “I may not remember anything about her, but I would bet her smile was my favorite part of her” – Never Never. The second part of the Never Never series continues the suspenseful journey of Charlie and Silas as they dig deeper into the mystery behind their memory loss. The tension escalates as they begin to piece together their past, but each discovery leads to more questions. This thrilling continuation keeps readers on edge. “Never forget that I was your first real kiss. Never forget that you’ll be my last. And never stop loving me between all of them.” – Never Never: Part Two In the final installment of the Never Never series, all the pieces of the puzzle fall into place. Charlie and Silas must confront the truth about their relationship and the events that led to their memory loss. The conclusion is both satisfying and emotional, bringing the series to a fitting end. “Fate is the magnetic pull of our souls toward the people, places, and things we belong with.” – Never Never: Part Three “It stops here. With me and you. It ends with us.” – It Ends with Us It Ends With Us tackles difficult topics with sensitivity and grace, making it a must-read for anyone who appreciates raw, emotional storytelling. “Love. Love is not found. Love finds” – Too Late “Not every mistake deserves a consequence. Sometimes the only thing it deserves is forgiveness.” – Without Merit The story follows Merit, a teenager who feels invisible and disconnected from her family. As she uncovers secrets about her loved ones, she must confront her own struggles with depression and self-worth. “If you only shine light on your flaws, all your perfects will dim.” – All Your Perfects Hoover’s realistic portrayal of marriage and its struggles makes this a moving and heartfelt read. Have you read the Maybe Someday series yet? #colleenhoover #cohort #coho #maybesomeday #maybenot #maybenow #booktok It is a satisfying continuation of the story that fans of the original novel will appreciate. It offers closure and new beginnings for the beloved characters. “If you aren’t living your best life for yourself, you can’t be your best self for those in your life.” – Maybe Now “I wasn’t heroic. I wasn’t simple. I was difficult. An emotionally challenging puzzle he wasn’t up for solving.” – Verity As Lowen digs into Verity’s notes, she uncovers dark and disturbing secrets. Verity is a chilling and suspenseful read that keeps readers hooked from start to finish. “True love exists and the people in this house are proof of that.” – Finding Perfect Hoover’s exploration of love, loss, and forgiveness makes Regretting You a poignant and relatable read. “Sometimes you have to walk away from the fight in order to win it.” – Regretting You As they spend the summer together, they learn about love, loss, and the importance of human connection. Heart Bones is a beautifully written story that tugs at the heartstrings. “Hearts don’t have bones. They can’t actually break.” – Heart Bones “Perhaps what we desire can sometimes be so strong it overpowers our fate.” – Layla It is a deeply moving story about second chances and the power of love to heal. “Reading is a hobby, but for some of us, it’s an escape from the difficulties we face. To all of you who escape into books, I want to thank you for escaping into this one.” – Reminders of Him “She’s my person, and I am hers, and that’s something I’ve known since the first week we met.” – It Starts with Us As she navigates co-parenting with her ex-husband, she also begins a new relationship with her first love, Atlas. It Starts With Us is a story of healing, hope, and the power of love to overcome even the darkest of circumstances. I haven’t said wtf this much at a book since Verity- Never Never was so good! It follows a boy and a girl who have known each other their whole life and have been in a relationship for four years when, one day in history class, they lose their memories. There is so much to this plot but if I say anything else it will be a spoiler and I don’t want to ruin it because, when I was reading it, it genuinely felt like there was a new twist every 5 minutes!! For me, I absolutely loved this book, I was hooked from the first chapter and I know I’m not going to stop talking about it for weeks!! <3 #books #booktok #booktoker #bookreview #bookreviewer #foryou #foryoupage #fyp #bookrecs #bookrecommendations #bookish #colleenhooverbooks #coho #colleenhoover #nevernever #tarrynfisher #neverneverbook ♬ ceilings – Sped Up Version – Lizzy McAlpine
