Soon to be a major motion picture starring Allison Williams and Dave Franco.

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.

Amazon.com Review

An Amazon Best Book of December 2019: Colleen Hoover’s novels frequently straddle the line between heartfelt romance and family drama, offering the best of both worlds. Her latest, Regretting You, again delivers a winner, with a story that’s vulnerable, genuine, and emotionally fulfilling. After she got pregnant at 17 and married her fun-loving boyfriend, Chris, Morgan put her future on hold to raise their daughter—a choice that Morgan has been satisfied with until recently. Now Morgan’s teenage daughter, Clara, likes a boy of dubious background, Morgan’s sister has just had a baby, and Morgan wants to finally do something with her life that involves paying attention to her own dreams for once. Then a fatal accident sends shock waves through the family, tearing at the bonds between Clara and Morgan. Hoover clearly understands the push and pull of even the best mother-daughter relationships, evoking empathy for both women and the mistakes they make as they struggle to reconcile the past and build a new future. —Adrian Liang, Amazon Book Review

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.

    Hoover's ability to create multi-dimensional and relatable characters shines through in "Regretting You." Morgan is a loving and compassionate mother, while Clara is a teenager trying to find her voice amidst the chaos. Their mother-daughter relationship is beautifully portrayed, filled with both love and conflict, making it incredibly realistic and relatable.

  • Reviewed in the United States on December 24, 2019
    When my favorite authors have new books that come out, I try my best to go in as blind as I can. No reading the blurb. Skipping over reviews online and teasers in book groups. It's hard, but I want to experience the book without ANY preconceived notions and be surprised on my own. Regretting You was a beautiful surprise from an author that can write absolutely anything (but what is up with her use of letters in so many books?? lol).

    Regretting You is told in dual POV from a mother (Morgan) and daughter (Clara). They've experienced something that was life altering and the experience changed them and their whole life forever.

    "Right after something tragic happens, you feel like you've fallen off a cliff. But after the tragedy starts to sink in, you realize you didn't fall off a cliff. You're on an eternal roller coaster that just reached the bottom. Now it's gonna be up and down and upside down for a long , long time. Maybe even forever."

    And that's what this story was for me. It unfolded and we got to see how 2 characters handled the situation. Neither one was perfect. A mother trying to shield her daughter and protect her, while at the same time trying to forge and fix the relationship between them that had floundered in recent years. Morgan gave up absolutely everything for Clara and, being a teen, she never saw it. Morgan was selfless and that was her biggest flaw. She did for others at the detriment to herself.
    And then there's Clara. She is a teenager and that's almost the only thing we need to say to understand her actions. She is trying to navigate a new life and holds so much hatred toward her mother that just wants a relationship with her. But she also has a boy around her that intrigues her (Miller, FTW). Her actions are all over the place. These three characters and their roller coaster of emotions had me feeling for them all throughout the book.

    I hate a review that gives me a synopsis of a book. So I will leave you with this...
    Regretting You gives you two female characters that are trying to figure out their places in life and their places with each other. It's not easy to read everything and you will want to smack Clara a few times. But like I said, she's a teenager that's been dealt a blow. And even Morgan is frustrating. Especially in the flashbacks where maybe she got it wrong.
    Miller is utter perfection. Seriously. His actions and the way he handled all his situations was very commendable. Just remember that they are teens, and not everything is perfect.
    And then there is Gramps. I love an old character that comes in funny or with some major sage advice. He was really a favorite of mine.
    Then we have Jonah, Chris and Jenny. They are all major players in this story, but this is Morgan and Clara's journey and that's where the focus lies. Don't expect answers from them. ;)

    Regretting You was a journey for two characters and while I wanted information from other characters, it wasn't their story. The way the characters interacted, the story flowed from past to present and from character to character was done so well. The plot moved at a pace that worked for the story being told. Of course I wanted more answers, but I was understanding of this mother/ daughter relationship that included their own personal relationships and how they navigated them. Colleen Hoover wrote a book that a mother could share with their high school daughter and hopefully bring them closer. While it's not my favorite CoHo book, it is still a book that I will love to share with others. It's beautiful and well told. The message about relationships and attraction really hit home.

    "Attraction isn't something that only happens once, with one person. It's part of what drives humans. Our attraction to each other, to art, to food, to entertainment. Attraction is fun. So when you decide to commit to someone, you aren't saying, 'I promise I'll never be attracted to anyone else.' You're saying, 'I promise to commit to you, despite my potential future attraction to other people.'...Relationships are hard for that very reason."

    Colleen has a way with words and is gifting us with another book that details the flaws in humans and how we can react to them and process them. Be prepared to feel and learn all at once. Loving and hating the characters in this story will be a journey in itself. 4.5 stars

    A escrita da Colleen é uma coisa extraordinária, é fluída e super rápida de ser lido, não dá vontade de parar, mesmo eu em uma época muito difícil de ler, ela consegue me roubar o sono para continuar na história. Essa é uma história muito simples onde vai envolver uma mãe e uma filha. A mãe é maravilhosa e a filha é adolescente então meio irritante, mas isso é ser adolescente. O mistério não é tão impactante mas a escolha desse impacto não é o caminho mais fácil e eu gostei da forma que a Collen escolheu, ela poderia ir para um meio termo que seria bastante interessante ver mais conflitos, mas a forma que ela escolheu, deixa várias dúvidas que os personagens vão desvendando conforme a leitura. Achei que o final poderia se estender mais, ter mais sobre o futuro mas entendo que ela deixou mais realista e menos preguiçoso para o leitor. Acho que estou gostando dos livros mais adultos da autora e esse com certeza virou um dos favoritos.
