Recently, I read Verity by Colleen Hoover, and it was exhilarating to say the least. Lowen Ashleigh is on the verge of bankruptcy when she accepts an offer from Jeremy Crawford, the husband of Verity Crawford a popular novelist. She is hired to finish an uncompleted book series that Verity started writing but was unable to finish because she has injuries from a car crash. Lowen moves into the Crawford household, ready to look through years of notes and outlines in Verity’s office to help her get a start on the book. As soon as she starts looking though, she finds an autobiography that Verity never intended anybody read instead. Her curiosity gets ahold of her and as she reads the truth behind the death of the Crawford children becomes questionable and secrets unfold. Personally, I loved this book! I liked the thrill behind the mystery and the way everything comes together in the end. The only thing that I slightly disliked about this book was in the ending I wish less things were left to our own interpretation. Other than that, overall this book was an awesome read and I recommend it to anyone 16 and up since it does contain mature themes.
