The Color Purple: why it is banned and my take on the lessons it can provide.

The long-awaited sequel to It Ends with Us. A story of possibilities, renewal, and true love—and a must read for every Colleen Hoover fan.

Monumentally disturbing and dark story from the perspective of the predator—delivered brilliantly by the author.

A powerful story and lesson about how we all take in, process, and react to abusive situations in a multitude of ways.

Hoover exposes a difficult topic in a meaningful way with all the feels. Heartbreaking, emotionally gripping, and tenderly satisfying.

For July, I tackle stories that raise awareness about abuse and offer hope to those who can relate to its darkness and be empowered to heal.
