Both Atlas and Lily carry the weight of painful pasts. Atlas, facing homelessness and parental neglect, learns to fend for himself, while Lily grapples with the aftermath of witnessing domestic violence.

FAQ's
While reading 'It Ends with Us' first can enhance the reading experience, it is not required. 'It Starts with Us' can be enjoyed as a standalone novel, offering a complete and satisfying story on its own.
Colleen Hoover is known for her emotionally charged writing, and 'It Starts with Us' is no exception. The novel tackles difficult subjects such as poverty, abuse, and grief, but it also offers messages of hope, resilience, and the redeeming power of love.
As of now, there is no official announcement of a sequel. However, given the success of both books and the passionate fanbase, a continuation of the story is definitely a possibility.
