It Starts with Us
Before It Ends with Us, it started with Atlas. Colleen Hoover tells fan favorite Atlas’s side of the story and shares what comes next in this long-anticipated sequel to the “glorious and touching” (USA TODAY) #1 New York Times bestseller It Ends with Us.
Lily and her ex-husband, Ryle, have just settled into a civil coparenting rhythm when she suddenly bumps into her first love, Atlas, again. After nearly two years separated, she is elated that for once, time is on their side, and she immediately says yes when Atlas asks her on a date.
But her excitement is quickly hampered by the knowledge that, though they are no longer married, Ryle is still very much a part of her life—and Atlas Corrigan is the one man he will hate being in his ex-wife and daughter’s life.
Switching between the perspectives of Lily and Atlas, It Starts with Us picks up right where the epilogue for the “gripping, pulse-pounding” (Sarah Pekkanen, author of Perfect Neighbors) bestselling phenomenon It Ends with Us left off. Revealing more about Atlas’s past and following Lily as she embraces a second chance at true love while navigating a jealous ex-husband, it proves that “no one delivers an emotional read like Colleen Hoover” (Anna Todd, New York Times bestselling author).

Soo me and my friends started this series around the same time. Me and another one of my friends finished around the same time. I absolutely loved this book, I think I love it more than It Ends With Us. Two of my friends didn’t like Atlas, so they didn’t enjoy the book as much as I did. I absolutely love happy endings, and I was drawn into their history from the first time in the first book Atlas got mentioned. #teamAtlas4eva!! I want to find my own Atlas eventually, but saying that I am only 17, I will wait for God’s timing. I want my Atlas, just hopefully under different circumstances. Would definitely recommend to anyone who loves spicy romance with baby daddy issues. Not that specific, but you get the point lol.

It Ends With Us remains my favorite book, but It Starts With Us made a great closing for Atlas and Lily’s story. I feel at peace with this close :)

I loved It Ends with Us so I was so eager to start this book. Loved it and loved the way it ended, but I do think they could’ve wrapped things up a little quicker. I was getting bored after abut the 20th chapter. Overall, happy with it though!
