Personally, I don’t like her books. In most part because of the writing, to me the basics of make it poorly written—it’s like Hoover wasn’t trying very hard. The actual plots would be fine if she wasn’t throwing trauma at the audience left and right.

However, I understand why people like them: they’re easy and you don’t have to think about what they’re reading. Which is fine, I do this myself. But my pleasure reading are things that are, in my opinion, just better.
