Our view

“This Girl” closes Colleen Hoover’s “Slammed” trilogy by retelling the love story from Will’s side. Now married, Layken presses Will about a past he would rather keep to himself, and his account revisits the events of “Slammed” with new details. Some readers love hearing the other half of the romance, others find reliving familiar scenes from a second viewpoint tiresome, and the epilogue wins praise on both sides.

About the book

From the New York Times bestselling author of It Ends With Us, Colleen Hoover’s bestselling Slammed series comes to its gripping conclusion. There are two sides to every love story. Now hear Will’s. 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 instalment of the beloved Slammed series.
