The #1 Wall Street Journal bestseller that People Magazine calls "a poignant, addictive read."

From #1 New York Times bestselling author of It Ends with Us comes a novel about family, first love, grief, and betrayal that will touch the hearts of both mothers and daughters.

Morgan Grant and her sixteen-year-old daughter, Clara, would like nothing more than to be nothing alike.

Morgan is determined to prevent her daughter from making the same mistakes she did. By getting pregnant and married way too young, Morgan put her own dreams on hold. Clara doesn't want to follow in her mother's footsteps. Her predictable mother doesn't have a spontaneous bone in her body.

With warring personalities and conflicting goals, Morgan and Clara find it increasingly difficult to coexist. The only person who can bring peace to the household is Chris—Morgan's husband, Clara's father, and the family anchor. But that peace is shattered when Chris is involved in a tragic and questionable accident. The heartbreaking and long-lasting consequences will reach far beyond just Morgan and Clara.

While struggling to rebuild everything that crashed around them, Morgan finds comfort in the last person she expects to, and Clara turns to the one boy she's been forbidden to see. With each passing day, new secrets, resentment, and misunderstandings make mother and daughter fall further apart. So far apart, it might be impossible for them to ever fall back together.

This is an emotional, funny, romantic book but most of all I liked the family approach
4.5 ⭐I recieved an ARC to give an honest opinion, this is the first time I'm lucky enough about reading a CoHo book this earlier, I finished reading the book at three in the morning, I loved it.As I like to go blind with Colleen Hoover books I will not give details of the plot in the review so as not to ruin you the story.This isn't a typical CoHo romance but I liked it, when I started reading it I only knew it was about a mother and daughter because I wanted to go totally blind, I didn't even read the synopsis and I'm glad I didn't do it because I think it has some important spoilers that give shape to the plot.First of all, this book reminded me a lot of Slammed and Hopeless, perhaps because of family dynamics and romance.The interesting thing about Regretting You is that the story is told from the point of view of Morgan and her daughter Clara, we can know what each one thinks and things that are not said, how they put everything in perspective to resolve the differences they have and strengthen their relationship.This book is about forgiveness, but above all, it shows us that in all kinds of relationships the important thing is trust, no matter if it is with your parents, partner or friends.Clara at times frustrated me a lot for her attitude but at the same time I felt that it was understandable to some extent for the things that lead to it.I liked Morgan's strength in the whole book trying to do her best for her daughter, although sometimes what we think is best can hurt us more.Just as we have two female protagonists we have the male protagonists with whom they have their own romantic story Jonah and Miller.I loved Miller because despite the situations that happened with Clara (I one part I was really mad at her) he was always patient and understanding with her. I loved all those little details that shaped their story.Jonah liked me from the beginning, for his charisma, for his kindness and knowing how to deal with shiting situations following his heart.I love how Colleen give us that revelation about the name of the book and how her covers always have that glimpse of the story.This is an emotional, funny, romantic book but most of all I liked the family approach that had and my favorite part was the epilogue, it was the perfect closure for this story.

“I don’t understand how my body can be full of everything bodies are full of—bones and muscles and blood and organs—yet my chest sometimes feels vacant, as if someone could scream into my mouth and it would echo inside of me.” - Regretting You.

SYNOPSIS: “ Morgan Grant and her sixteen-year-old daughter, Clara, would like nothing more than to be nothing alike. Morgan is determined to prevent her daughter from making the same mistakes she did. By getting pregnant and married way too young. Morgan put her own dreams on hold. Clara doesn’t want to follow in her mother’s footsteps. Her predictable mother doesn’t have a spontaneous bone in her body. With warring personalities and conflicting goals, Morgan and Clara find it increasingly difficult to coexist. The only person who can bring peace to the household is Chris- Morgan’s husband, Clara’s father, and the family anchor. But that peace is shattered when Chris is involved in a tragic and questionable accident. The heartbreaking and long-lasting consequences will reach far beyond just Morgan and Clara.” - Regretting You.

REVIEW: Another Colleen Hoover read and another five stars from me! This book was full of hard truths, hurts, and comforts. While the plot is fairly laid out in the synopsis, I feel like the book went much deeper than that. It is such a great commentary on relationships in general, but especially relationships between mothers and daughters and couples. Being a daughter myself, I had some flashbacks to my teenage years while reading this book, and the relationship with my mother around that time. It also made me think of the future, and when I am (eventually) a mother myself and the type of relationship I may have with my future daughter. I found it to be emotional but also so raw and real. This book was heartbreaking and shocking in some moments, and also had an amazing plot.

Similar to the other Colleen Hoover books that I have read, I fell in love with the characters. I found them all to be very different and independent from one another, each with their own voice. I also appreciated how none of the characters were perfect. They all had their shortcomings and “bad” sides but some of the characters also showed immense growth throughout the book. Some characters were able to admit their mistakes and shortcomings and work to move past it. I appreciate the work of the characters too- they didn’t just magically change for the better without going through the fire. Like I mentioned above, it all was so realistic, touching, and heartbreaking. I generally tend to love books that explore complicated family dynamics and relationships in general, so this was perfect for me.

This book I am going to recommend to everyone. It is such an easy read, and I think that most people will get something worthwhile out of it. While the book did deal with some heartbreaking topics, I found a lot of it to also be very comforting, which is a welcomed break from the dark and twisty books I typically read.

I just finished the book with one word stuck in my mind, orange. Let’s be honest, Miller looked like a creepy guy with his film. He began to film Clara when she was 14 and when he was with Shelby, his ex-girlfriend. But it is also cute. He is also mature for his age compare to Clara who acted like a totally immature teenager, taking thing personally and judging without understanding. She was so hard on her mother and wanting to ‘murder her’ for things she hadn’t done. We know in the end she regrets how she treated her mom. Her mom was the one keeping all things for herself and hurting a lot inside. The lost of her husband and sister had been difficult for all the family. One thing I wished to see in the book is to know what the letters said about Chris and Jenny, to have answers because in this real world we all want to know to be able to move on. I was disappointed about that, she destroyed the letters. Another thing is, there’s too much about Clara and Miller. Why not more about Morgan and Jonah? Some spicy scenes and their future. Did Morgan finally got the job? Did she finally go to college? Will she marry Jonah? It was more a book for teenagers than adults. I saw the review and we are more adults readers than teenagers. This is why some are disappointed. Still a good story and I won’t stop reading books from Colleen Hoover

The strength of female bonds is beautifully depicted in Regretting You. The complex relationship between Morgan and Clara serves as a reminder that even amidst misunderstandings or disagreements, love prevails in the end. Witnessing their growth as individuals while navigating their shared pain was both empowering and cathartic.
