“Ugly Love” is a stand-alone novel by Colleen Hoover, a really popular author in the contemporary genre, author of the “Hopeless” and the “Slammed” series.

Tate just moved to San Francisco, and is staying at her brother’s apartment until she finds a place on her own. Her brother is a pilot and lives in a complex where other mates also live. The first day, as she arrives a guy is drunk on her brother’s door, after calling her brother and finding out he is one of her brother’s mates she lets him in. She and Miles, the guy, will later agree to a beneficial relationship with no feelings attached, however both are by that time already in love with each other.

“Ugly Love” was an interesting contemporary novel. I would like to say that it even sounded realistic in these days, when most people just hang out and do not really commit from minute one. I liked how the author plays with the past of Miles to show the reason of his behavior in the present time. However, what I did not like is that none of Tate’s past mattered in this book, she speaks now and there about not so good experiences but it is never addressed, and that made the character feel a little incomplete. Nevertheless, the book was really compelling and easy to read that I really enjoyed it.


To conclude, “Ugly Love” was a compelling contemporary worth reading.

Half Year Wrap Up and July TBR

Hello everyone, as I said on my update and favorites post I’m sorry I’ve been absent lately. Because of that, I’m not going to do a monthly wrap up, but a middle of the year wrap up. I can’t believe we have already hit the middle of the year, but here we are and I’m four books behind in my goodreads challenge, which is more or less like a month. It isn’t much considering how little time I have had to read, as well as many other things, and considering there were two months in which I didn’t finished one book.  We start with January, the best month reading wise I’ve had in years, I completed a total of 8 books in addition to a novella and a graphic novel. Not only that, I also highly enjoyed most books I read during that month  “Captivated by You” by Sylvia Day. The last book published in the Crossfire series, really liked it, and I can’t wait for the next book which I think might be the last. (4/5) “Conociendo a Raul” by Blue Jeans. The novella I read, prequel to “El Club de

Pages: 188 Publisher: Puffin Format: Digital (Kindle) Time to read it: 5 days Language: English Rating: 4/5 “Strife is the ninth book in the “Wicca/Sweep” series, a series that follows Morgan as she finds out about the existence of magik and her relationship with it. She discovers a new part of her life that threatens with run over everything else. Weird things start happening and the only one that can be blame is Morgan who is uninitiated, since now Ciaran is on the run, and Selene and Cal dead. Hunter brings someone to help her out but her solution to things kinds of goes to extreme. Also, Alisa leaves the coven, since all the things happening scared her off. “Strife” was a good book in the series but it got me lost a little bit. They introduced Alisa’s point of view which kinds of puts me off a little bit and all in all it was a little tedious
