This Girl
By
Colleen Hoover
Blurb:
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 his point of view. Their future
rests on how well they deal with the past in this final installment of the
beloved Slammed series.
Dee’s Review:
Okay,
let me start this by saying I was a little worried reading this book. I mean it
was the same story just from a different point of view, right? Wrong. Well, I Mean
that’s right.. but its also wrong. It’s not just the same story. Seeing it from
Will’s point of view made me fall in love with this story all over again. And can
I just say I LOVE LOVE LOVE the way it was told. Nicely done, the mixture and
old with the new, but it’s all told like he is reminiscing with Lake. In bed. Telling
it to her, instead of you as a reader. I love it! Okay sorry.. back to the
book. So, we start from the beginning and get to see it all from how Will saw
the story unfold. We even go back to the stupid little red gnome that she
landed on, the Darth Vader house shoes, to the first date, the first kiss, to
Julia walking in on them, everything.

We even get to see how Vaugh and Will
broke up. All that drama, how many times he wanted to quit working for her, how
he really truly struggled. The pieces we didn’t get to see in Slammed and Point
of Retreat, it was like this was the missing puzzle pieces that explained everything. Not only does it help Lake see why things went down the way they did, but it helps us see. Plus we get the added bonus of the wedding and honeymoon from his
point of view.. ssssssss. HOT!
If you read the Slammed Series and you loved it,
you are going to love This Girl. It’s got the same humor, the same love, the
same everything, just great. I’m not going to lie.. the Epilogue is awesome! Oh
Will.. what will we do with your hot, fine, poetic self? This book is so worth
being picked up and read. It’s a superb ending to a wonderful series. I give
this book 4 hearts. So worth the read. Sigh… Will Cooper. Poetry. Enough Said.
