Frequently Asked Questions About Colleen Hoover Books:

Who is Colleen Hoover?

Unless you were an avid romance reader, you might not have known the name Colleen Hoover before 2021.

But with the power of #BookTok (videos on Tiktok that offer book recommendations), Colleen Hoover has claimed not one but 5 spots on the bestseller lists for 2022 and I think she’s only getting started.

What’s amazing is that three of these romance bestsellers are backlist titles including, It Ends With Us, which was the #1 selling book on the adult list AND overall book list for the first six months of 2022, according to Publisher’s Weekly.

Publishers Weekly shows Colleen Hoover's success with 5 titles in the top 20 for the first half of 2022.

OMG Colleen – that is amazing!

Not only do I love her success for what it’s doing for the romance genre, but I also just love her story of success.

If ever there is a woman to look up to and find motivation in her story to becoming one of the best-selling romance novelists, Colleen Hoover is it.

Before she self-published her first novel, Slammed, in 2012, Hoover was a social worker living in a mobile home who took up writing because she was bored and always loved to write.

To share her novel with friends and family, she self-published it on Amazon and the rest as they say is history!

Now she’s a millionaire and New York Times bestselling author of over 20 books in the new adult romance, young adult romance, and psychological thriller genres.

What Genre Do Colleen Hoover Books Fit In?

Colleen Hoover books attract a wide range of readers because her books don’t just fit into one genre. Though the majority of Colleen Hoover books fit the romance genre, they span adult romance, new adult romance, and young adult romance.

In addition to the romance genre, Colleen Hoover books also fit the psychological thriller, paranormal fiction and suspense genres.

Who Would Like Colleen Hoover Books?

If the bestseller charts of 2022 have anything to say about it, just about every reader loves Colleen Hoover books!

That year alone, she claimed the top THREE bestselling books of the year according to Publishers Weekly. Of the top 25 titles, eight were Colleen Hoover books!

Considering that the bestselling book of the year was a romance (It Ends With Us) and the second bestselling book was a thriller (Verity), Colleen Hoover draws a wide range of readers.

If you love to read a variety of genres, then you will love her books. If you also love books that incorporate tough subject matter and those that tug on your heartstrings, then you’ve found your author.

What’s the Best Order to Read All the Colleen Hoover Books?

Readers new to the author often ask what is the best order to read her books. Honestly, it’s totally a reader’s prerogative as to what order to read Colleen Hoover’s books.

Whether you choose to read them in order of date published, in order by series published, or simply by storyline or reading level, you can find these recommended options above to help you get started.

Which Colleen Hoover Book Should I Read First?

Such a good question! Picking which Colleen Hoover book to read first sort of depends on your favorite storyline and genre.

Of course, her most popular book is It Ends With Us so you could always start there. But if you don’t like the subject matter of that one (it deals with domestic violence) then I’d recommend first reading Maybe Someday or Reminders of Him.

Those two books are great representations of her writing and then you can circle back to her other books based on what sounds interesting to you.
