He sees her ID for two seconds and then suddenly remembers her full name, home address, date of birth, height and donor status.

Sky and Holder are not perfect people, and they both have a lot of emotional baggage that they are carrying with them. However, Holder could not have anticipated that he would be faced with even greater pain the moment they reconnected. That night, Holder comes to see Sky, but he’s a little drunk on lemonades, so he’s not really making much sense. One of the things that makes the Hopeless Series so compelling is the way that Colleen Hoover has created characters that are both relatable and complex.

With the help of their friends and family, they must find a way to move forward and build a future together. I nod and hope he backs the hell away from me,because I'm about to have an asthma attack and I don't even have ashthma.

However, she soon discovers that Holder’s erratic and unpredictable behavior comes with a very good explanation. And the secrets that he holds will bring her unimaginable answers to questions she never knew she had. Ever since her mother’s death, her father had been raping her, which was why she was afraid of the door knob turning. Before stepping foot in school Sky has already developed a rep for sleeping around with different guys.Thank you for giving me the courage to always ask the questions, even when I don’t want the answers. But I think it’s one of those ones where you can kind of overlook that because Holder and Sky are interesting. But still that's not enough: we have a hero who carries all the guilt of the universe on his shoulders, witness the kidnapping of the heroine, learn about the rape of the heroin and his twin. What I assumed and what was actually happening were such opposites I kicked myself for making the assumptions I made.

After Les’s death, Jake had said that she’s taken the coward’s way out, and though Holder knew that was the truth, he couldn’t take it, and so beat him up, but he didn’t know that he was gay. She has been home schooled her entire life and decides she wants to go to public school for her senior year of high school with her friend Six. She offers to turn herself in, but Sky sees the real reason why she did it, andthanks her for saving her. Sky pauses for all of five seconds to think it's weird that he knows these things, but then she gets distracted by his beautiful eyes or perfect muscles. It's a story about a boy who never leaves her side because he's been waiting for her his whole life.There’s also an interesting conversation about their first kiss (among other firsts), and things seem to be going in the right direction. She befriends a guy named Breckin, and they both take to each other quickly as the new kids and outsiders at school. Sky confronts Karen and asks her why she was homeschooled all her life, why she’s not allowed to have a phone and everything else that’s been odd in her life. Sky tells Holder about her father, and Holder tells her about his twin sister, Lesslie (Les), who committed suicide the previous year.

Only by courageously facing the stark revelations can Sky and Holder hope to heal their emotional scars and find a way to live and love without boundaries. In Losing Hope, Holder reveals the way in which the events of Sky's youth affected him and his family, leading him to seek his own redemption in the act of saving her. I learnt that sometimes the most simple questions are the ones that are most difficult to answer in life. with this, my first time around i was so enamoured by the whole ‘boy next door’ and the romance of loving someone since you were a child.It took effort to turn the pages, to make my brain comprehend and accept that life isn't about fluffy love and happily ever afters. Sometimes you just have to choose between a bunch of wrong choices and pick the one which feels the least wrong.
