**Recent Reads: A Discussion of "Never Never" by Colleen Hoover and Taran Fisher**
I recently finished reading "Never Never" by Colleen Hoover and Taran Fisher, and I must say it was a thrilling experience. As someone who writes primarily in the new adult romance genre, Colleen Hoover is known for her captivating stories that often leave readers on the edge of their seats. This particular novella is a love story with a twist, and I was hooked from start to finish.
One of the things that drew me to this book was its brevity. With only 110 pages, it's a quick read that can be finished in a day. However, don't let its length fool you – there's still plenty of action and suspense to keep you engaged. The author expertly weaves together a complex plot that's full of twists and turns, keeping me guessing until the very end.
**Mystery and Suspense**
I was particularly impressed with how well Hoover balanced the romance with mystery in this novella. There's a huge mystery at the center of the story, and I won't give away any spoilers, but let's just say it kept me up late at night trying to figure out what would happen next. The author does an excellent job of dropping clues throughout the book, making it impossible to predict what will happen.
**The Power of Hope**
What really resonated with me about this story was its message of hope and resilience. The protagonist, who has lost her legs in a tragic accident, refuses to give up on her dreams. With the help of her prosthetic legs, she finds a way to continue running – both literally and metaphorically. This inspiring tale fills you with hope and admiration, making it an unforgettable read.
**Book-to-Movie Adaptations**
As I was reading "Never Never," I couldn't help but notice how many books are being adapted into movies. From The Hunger Games to Harry Potter, these beloved stories are being brought to life on the big screen. This trend is especially evident in the young adult genre, where books like The Maze Runner and The 5th Wave have been turned into successful films.
**Coffee Break**
As I was recording this video, I grabbed a cup of coffee from my favorite hipster coffee shop (where everyone goes to get their coffee). I'm not a coffee connoisseur, but I do enjoy a good cuppa. And speaking of books and coffee, I've got a special shoutout for an indie author who writes about being the perfect blend – Booker Series. This series is both better and yet somehow still satisfying, making it a must-read for fans of romance and drama.
**Favorite Books**
As a book lover, I'm always eager to discuss my favorite stories with others. Two books that come to mind when thinking about endings are Requiem by Lauren Oliver and The Infinite Sea by Rick Yancey. While I was expecting more from both of these series, the final installments didn't quite meet my expectations. However, there were moments of pure satisfaction – particularly in The Clockwork Princess by Sarah J. Maas.
**Q&A**
Finally, I'd love to hear from you: what's your favorite type of coffee? Are you a decaf fan or do you prefer the rich flavor of regular coffee? Let me know in the comments below!
