I love that this is something different from this author’s norm. I love a good paranormal romance myself and it’s so nice to see an author branch out and do different things then their “normal”. It was a nice refreshing read. If you want to read another outside the box read from Ms Hoover also try Variety. A fantastic read through and through.

The story was well written and executed and easy to follow. You must suspend belief but isn’t that the truth with all paranormal reads? My less than 5 star rating comes from the lead hero and heroine. Do not get me wrong I fully enjoyed the storyline itself. I just didn’t feel a super intense chemistry between these two. I felt love and friendship. But I didn’t feel that soulmate I can’t keep my eyes off you kind of love. You really have to believe in that sort of thing for this. I felt their chemistry more in the beginning before the accident, but once things change (without giving too much away) I didn’t feel the same intense feelings. I’m sure there is a reason for it but I just wasn’t sold on them. Things are different and they must be portrayed as such otherwise you’d be able to figure out what was happening really quick.

Anyways I was pleasantly surprised once we start getting answers. I really struggled with the hero’s decisions and found myself quite angry with him throughout but then he gets a little redemption when things come to light. I hope Colleen continues to experiment with different genres while still staying in line with her romance themes. I love her romances and have read a handful of them this year. I would say this book isn’t as freaky as Verity. There are some “spooky” parts but Verity scared me more because of the realistic touch where this one doesn’t have that reality aspect as much. Anyways give it a read! I’ve never regretted reading a Colleen Hoover book even if it’s different then what you’re used to from her.

This book is best going into blind.

Wow, this book wasn't what I was expecting at all! I picked Layla up without knowing anything at all: haven't read the blurb, any reviews or synopsis, not even the genre. I just started reading this knowing that Colleen Hoover writes contemporary romance and does an excellent job at it. I'm so glad I went into blind with this one.

"I placed two layers of duct tape over Layla's mouth before I came downstairs, but I can still hear her muffled screams as the detective takes a seat at the table."

Yep, that's how the story begins. And it gets crazier.

This is the love story of Leeds and Layla, but is told entirely from Leed's perspective, which I appreciated because his character is the most complex of all. It's written very well and I couldn't put it down. I just wanted to know what crazy thing happens next. Reading this book is a rollercoaster ride: one moment it's "awww, how cute of them" to "what is happening?" to "how could he?" to "OMG!".

The story goes back and forth in time, until it's only about the present. But with Layla, both time periods were so interesting. The last chapters of this book were intense. I was certainly wasn't expecting the twist toward the end!

A few things in the book made me very uncomfortable, specially the part where they do something extremely drastic and dangerous in order to save Layla. There were moments when I hated Leeds so much.

Colleen Hoover ventured into a new genre with this one. What a ride this was! This book totally had me on the edge of my seat and I had a hard time putting it down. In fact, I'm still trying to wrap my mind around the events which occurred.

Go ahead and read this. You won't be able to put the book down once you start reading it. ( )

Layla by Colleen Hoover

An emotional story moving at a fast pace. With twists turns and shocking moments, I was hooked from the start. Just when I thought I had it figured out a new plot twist occurred. Overall I found Layla compelling, thought provoking and memorable. I won't say much more as I never do spoilers. I highly recommend Layla to Colleen Hoover fans. ( )

I enjoyed it but it was very odd. A fair 3.5⭐ I can say that I'm very happy for Layla though her struggle was heartbreaking. ( )

This is a book of romance. The man finds the girl that he wants to marry. And then something happens. The reader can guess what will happen. Fifty years ago, readers would have been outraged with a fiction like this - where a body is taken over by a ghost. Now, people are more open to believe in the afterlife. Nevertheless, for me it was exciting; a page turner. ( )
