In When We Were Infinite one fateful decision changes everything for Beth. She has a fractured family, a questionable future, and an inability to tell one of her best friends, Jason, how she truly feels about him. But when Beth witnesses an act of violence in Jason’s home, she and the rest of their friend group make a pact to protect him, but it isn’t enough to stop him from making a life changing decision.

We'll start this recommendation off with a trigger warning (it follows the aftermath of a sexual assault) but this book is an amazing read all about healing, trauma, and finding inner strength. Eden was looking forward to high school, but now everything is different. Told in four parts across the four years of high school, this book is a heartbreaking tale of strength and survival.

In The Last to Let Go Brooke must face a year of firsts: the first year without parents, first love, first heartbreak, and her first taste of freedom. While she struggles to confront the shadow of her family’s violence and dysfunction and embrace her identity, Brooke tries to find her true place in the world and learn how to let go. 

First things first: when you need a break from all of the intense drama, romance, and heartbreak that comes with a good Colleen Hoover novel, pick up The Do-Over! This adorable time loop romcom from Lynn Painter is a PERFECT escape when you need the occasional break from reading something heavier but still has fan-favorite ingredients of CoHo's books like relatable characters and a hopeful ending.

Is there anything CoHo fans love more than a fragile (and maybe doomed) romance? In Five Feet Apart Stella must stay six feet away from everyone or her chances of getting a life-saving lung transplant are out the window. She’s fine living by these rules until she meets Will, a fellow cystic fibrosis patient. Is a chance at love worth the risk?
