Ugly Love by Colleen Hoover

After Tate Collins and airline pilot Miles Archer agree to a no-strings attached relationship, they both have trouble sticking to the plan.

Uff! I have been thinking about this review for some time... And to be honest I don't know if this book deserves 4 stars.
The backstory was super interesting and I was really invested in it, however the present was confusing and frustrating. I don't like when toxic relationship is romanticised and unfortunatly this one is one of those...
I recommend this to people who like this author and/or the series After.

✧My first Colleen Hoover Book Review ✧

Official Rating:⭐⭐

I'm giving this 2 stars because I like what this book could have been. It could have been a story about emotional healing and learning to love again. But I guess a healthy book is too much to ask from CoHo.

This book is a mess. I don't understand how people can find Ugly Love romantic. I wish people, including Colleen Hoover, understood that it's not up to romantic partners to solve a man's emotional problems.

My main issues with Ugly Love:

- What is with the weird ass step-sibling romance? Like CoHo what was going through your mind?
- Tate had no self-respect for the entire story. There were times when I couldn't read anymore because she just had no backbone.
- Miles desperately needed THERAPY. NOT “LOVE”.
- Most of the book is just depressing sex. I saw absolutely no actual chemistry/romance between Miles and Tate.
- Miles sucks. Tate sucks. I don't know why I should like either of them. They're just two sad, pathetic people.

I didn't have many expectations for this book, I just knew there was going to be a lot of sex and a mysterious pilot. Never did I think that it would have so much depth. It was just so much that what I expected. and I loved it. It almost made me cry and I just loved it so much.

I loved this book however I was a bit disappointed we didn't get to know more of Miles. I felt the chapters from his POV were rushed and I couldn't get into his relationship with Rachel, nor did I feel as bad as I should have when it was revealed what happened to cause Miles to swear off love forever. I would love to read this same story completely from Miles's POV a la This Girl or Losing Hope.
