I devoured this in one day! Portions of Confess are truly thought provoking in originality and concept. I haven't read anything like it before. I'm not even sure how I want to review this. 
 The prologue is an exquisite pain of human emotion and loss. I was a puddle of tears within the first 4% of Confess, and I barely even knew the characters. Well, that's a true testament to an author's ability if I ever heard one. Colleen Hoover...you are simply amazing. 
 It begins with mystery. Auburn Reed sits in a lawyer's office nervous, a bit scared, and somewhat angry and upset. On her way home she stops, looking at a window covered in scraps of paper. Confessions: what she reads covering the window are confessions. Consumed with what she sees, Auburn begins reading them all, until she sees the help wanted sign. It's at that moment a hand yanks her inside. Auburns life is about to change. It will happen when Owen not only pulls her into his art studio but, when he makes Auburn feel things she hasn't in the past five years. 
 This is where I stop telling you about what happens and where I begin to tell you how amazing the path these two walk finally ends. It's revealing, heartbreaking, confusing and a powerful read. I was completely in awe of the art depicted in Confess and the meaning behind each one. I cannot wait to actually see the pieces described (my ARC was without pictures). It is a fascinating premise and I am honestly impressed with the idea of Confess Art Studio. 
 Many of the confessions listed within cause me to pause, wonder, and contemplate. I highlighted so many confessions that not only are poignant, but really made me think. Some I really don't want to acknowledge, but it's someone's truth and deserves to be heard even in anonymity. 
 I must Confess, it's an incredible 5 star read for me.
