               There are two sides to every love story. Now hear Will’s.
Colleen Hoover’s New York Times bestselling Slammed series has brought countless readers to their knees with a whirlwind of love, passion, and heartache. 
           Layken and Will’s love has managed to withstand the toughest of circumstances and the young lovers, now married, are beginning to feel safe and secure in their union. As much as Layken relishes their new life together, she finds herself wanting to know everything there is to know about her husband, even though Will makes it clear he prefers to keep the painful memories of the past where they belong. Still, he can’t resist his wife’s pleas and so he begins to untangle his side of the story, revealing for the first time his most intimate feelings and thoughts, retelling both the good and bad moments, and sharing a few shocking confessions of his own from the time when they first met.
          In This Girl, Will tells the story of their complicated relationship from hispoint of view. Their future rests on how well they deal with the past in this final installment of the beloved Slammed series.


It's absolutely a different oxygen kind of breathing I do everytime the narrator of the story is from the boy's POV. Everything Colleen Hoover wrote is exactly what I expected what a boy's mind is to be. Not much attention to super little details, unlike us girls, let's just admit that we're too meticulous. And I just love hearing their basic love story from Will's POV. And it wasn't exactly all redone, like from start of Slammed to finish but most of the major life changing parts. And the present time they were honeymooning!!! So much swoon! I like how Colleen Hopver stuck to YA kind of level here when it comes to the kissing etc parts ;) i like it more that there's an epilogue!

Ugh. This books is just all kinds of perfect. I like how every moment, every paragraph, jumping from one to another is exciting and varies! I now get why I felt so dragged when I read Molly McAdam's Taking Chances, because too many fillers in between and less twists. But when it comes to Colleen Hoover's style of writing, it's real scene after interesting vital scene after uncommon scene.

So...in conclusion, there's no other way to say i loved this!
