༺✿ 𝐖𝐇𝐎𝐋𝐄 𝐒𝐄𝐑𝐈𝐄𝐒 𝐑𝐄𝐕𝐈𝐄𝐖 ༺✿ The 'After' Series by Anna Todd

TITLE: AFTER
SERIES: AFTER #1
AUTHOR: ANNA TODD
GENRE: COLLEGE ROMANCE 
PUBLICATION: OCTOBER 2014

Synopsis

There was the time before Tessa met Hardin, and then there’s everything AFTER... Life will never be the same. #Hessa

Tessa is a good girl with a sweet, reliable boyfriend back home. She’s got direction, ambition, and a mother who’s intent on keeping her that way.

But she’s barely moved into her freshman dorm when she runs into Hardin. With his tousled brown hair, cocky British accent, tattoos and lip ring, Hardin is cute and different from what she's used to.

But he's also rude—to the point of cruelty, even. For all his attitude, Tessa should hate Hardin. And she does—until she finds herself alone with him in his room. Something about his dark mood grabs her, and when they kiss it ignites within her a passion she’s never known before.

He'll call her beautiful, then insist he isn't the one for her and disappear again and again. Despite the reckless way he treats her, Tessa is compelled to dig deeper and find the real Hardin beneath all his lies. He pushes her away again and again, yet every time she pushes back, he only pulls her in deeper.

Tessa already has the perfect boyfriend. So why is she trying so hard to overcome her own hurt pride and Hardin's prejudice about nice girls like her?

Unless...could this be love?

My Review

'AFTER' 
Is the first full length collage romance book in the series 'After', by new to me author 'Anna Todd.' Spoken in 'Dual Perspectives.'
20326828-SX540
This had been popping up on my newsfeeds all over the show which then got me keen and racing to #1click it on Amazon to see what all the fuss was about!! This was my very first book by this author so I was overly excited to start it. Only a few chapters in and I got hooked.

A game of Truth or Dare set the wheels in motion..

Tessa Young was all things sweet and nice, a virgin, who dressed like a girl on her way to church, who never did anything wrong, and stayed within the boundaries set out for her by her overbearing mother. Then throw in a boyfriend back home this was a recipe for disaster! From her roommate to the bad boy you knew they were going to dirty her up and corrupt her.

Hardin Scott appeared so much older than he was, from the car he drives, to the clothes he wears, to the tattoos marring his body. It was laughable how different these two were.

“𝐈 𝐟𝐞𝐞𝐥 𝐚𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 𝐈 𝐚𝐦 𝐢𝐜𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐡𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐞. 𝐖𝐞 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐬𝐨 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐲 𝐝𝐢𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐭, 𝐲𝐞𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐚𝐦𝐞.”

Hardin and Tessa were bound to collide in the most toxic of ways with their off the scales attraction which went from zero to scorching in a matter of moments as soon as their eyes connected they were lost in their own orbit, the outside world ceased to exist.

Magnetic..
Toxic..

The angst, the feels, the too and fro, the break ups the make ups, the college drama with the tatted up hot guy and the good girl. I haven’t been hit with these angsty, stabby feels since the ‘Thoughtless’ series by S.C. Stephens, the throw your kindle and scream kind of book..And I admit it without shame that this was inhaled at such a record speed my brain is fried and my eyes are cross eyed.

With the way things ended (of course it had to end in a cliffy )I'm off to read the next book..

TITLE: AFTER
SERIES: AFTER WE COLLIDED#2
AUTHOR: ANNA TODD
GENRE: COLLEGE ROMANCE 

Synopsis

Tessa has everything to lose. Hardin has nothing to lose… except her.

After a tumultuous beginning to their relationship, Tessa and Hardin were on the path to making things work. Tessa knew Hardin could be cruel, but when a bombshell revelation is dropped about the origins of their relationship—and Hardin’s mysterious past—Tessa is beside herself.

Hardin will always be… Hardin. But is he really the deep, thoughtful guy Tessa fell madly in love with despite his angry exterior—or has he been a stranger all along? She wishes she could walk away. It’s just not that easy. Not with the memory of passionate nights spent in his arms. His electric touch. His hungry kisses.

Still, Tessa’s not sure she can endure one more broken promise. She put so much on hold for Hardin—school, friends, her mom, a relationship with a guy who really loved her, and now possibly even a promising new career. She needs to move forward with her life.

Hardin knows he made a mistake, possibly the biggest one of his life. He’s not going down without a fight. But can he change? Will he change for love?

Book Two of the After series—now newly revised and expanded, Anna Todd’s After fan-fiction racked up 1 billion reads online and captivated readers across the globe. Experience the Internet’s most talked-about book for yourself!
 

My Review

I think I need therapy before I start this one, or a share in wine because this series to date has done my head in. #0800THERAPY

But like the sucker for punishment I am I can't stop reading this #trainwreck of a series!!

This kick starts us off where the previous book left off, nine years since she last saw her father or even had a relationship with him.

New job
New town
New friends
New life
And the old stabby angst with the ever present insecurities still alive simmering in the background.

God each books cliffy gets more brutal!! I need a break before I even attempt to jump onto the next book. These two are too much for my head and my aching heart!!

TITLE: AFTER
SERIES: AFTER WE FELL #3
AUTHOR: ANNA TODD
GENRE: COLLEGE ROMANCE 

Synopsis

Tessa and Hardin’s love was complicated before. Now it’s more confusing than ever. AFTER WE FELL...Life will never be the same. #HESSA

Just as Tessa makes the biggest decision of her life, everything changes. Revelations about first her family, and then Hardin’s, throw everything they knew before in doubt and makes their hard-won future together more difficult to claim.

Tessa’s life begins to come unglued. Nothing is what she thought it was. Not her friends. Not her family. The one person she should be able to rely on, Hardin, is furious when he discovers the massive secret she’s been keeping. And rather than being understanding, he turns to sabotage.

Tessa knows Hardin loves her and will do anything to protect her, but there’s a difference between loving someone and being able to have them in your life. This cycle of jealousy, unpredictable anger, and forgiveness is exhausting. She’s never felt so intensely for anyone, so exhilarated by someone’s kiss—but is the irrepressible heat between her and Hardin worth all the drama? Love used to be enough to hold them together. But if Tessa follows her heart now, will it be...the end?

  1. It's funny, but I've got these books sitting on my bookshelves... unread. The hype about the movie actually pushed this series further down the list lol. But now that you're raving about it... I just might have to give it a read :) Beautiful words, honey!! 💋
