Reader reviews for It Starts with Us
Review summary
Reader reaction to Colleen Hoover's It Starts with Us was sharply divided. Many felt it was an unnecessary, fan-service sequel that reads like an extended epilogue, citing predictable plotting, reused material, overreliance on letters, and a bland, chemistry-light romance between Lily and Atlas. Critics also questioned the handling of the abuse arc and the continued presence of Ryle, calling the commentary one-note and the tone overly sanitized. Supporters, however, praised the realistic portrayal of an abuser's ongoing gaslighting, appreciated the closure and gentleness of Atlas, and enjoyed side characters, finding the book a comforting, low-conflict coda. Overall, fans seeking closure were satisfied; others saw a forgettable cash grab.
