Confess- Risking life but not love

                           

          Hi, beautiful people! :)

Sorry for being MIA, for such a long time. I just got busy and lazy as hell. I hope I won't do this again, but who knows? *winks* 

Anyways, I have a lot of stuff in pipeline, so tighten your seat belts and keep reading! Let's start with this book review of one of my favorite authors.


Confess is written by Colleen Hoover. What a heartwarming story it is.There was a lot going on in the story. The beginning of the story intrigued me. I loved the concept of Owen's artwork being inspired by anonymous confessions. After Owen and Auburn's first encountered I immediately wondered how Owen knew her because it was obvious that Auburn had no idea who he was. What bothered me about this book was Lydia and Trey. The control they had over Auburn was manipulating. At the same time Auburn's low-opinion about herself was a bit low point and she allowed Trey and Lydia's control to contribute to her very low self esteem. Ultimately, this book dealt with issues of death, cancer, teen pregnancy, violence, addiction, assault and manipulation. There was a lot of drama in Owen and Auburn's life.

 At the same time Auburn's low opinion about herself was a bit pathetic and she allowed Trey and Lydia's control her life and to contribute to her very low self esteem. I understand that she was trying to do whatever she had to in order to be a part of AJ's life but her lack of confidence often made me doubt her character. While she would let Trey and Lydia manipulate her, Auburn took chance with Owen risking being caught and ultimately leading to conflict with Lydia. She would take those chances yet she wouldn't stand up to them.

I hated Trey's character. He was so annoying, jealous and controlling person. The way he manipulated Owen and his father just pissed me off. I actually liked Owen's dad although he wasn't a lovable character. I felt bad for him. Depression and addiction can destroy many relationships. Ultimately, this book dealt with issues of death, cancer, teen pregnancy, violence, addiction, assault, manipulation. There was a lot of drama and I feel like Trey got away too easily for all that he did to Owen and Auburn. He got away with being the angry, controlling jerk that he was. For the way he assaulted Auburn, he should have suffered more severe consequences.
