Weekend books. Not long at all. The short chapters create that 'just one more' effect. I finished 'It Ends With Us' in two sittings. The sequel even faster. They're page-turners, not marathons.

The main book took me three days, reading maybe an hour or two after work. The sequel was faster, maybe two days. They're not epic fantasies; they're contemporary dramas with pretty brisk pacing. Hoover's style isn't dense—you fly through the pages. I'd say a week for both, leisurely. If you're a binge-reader, a weekend is totally doable. The real time-sink is if you get online afterward to read all the theories and fan reactions, which I definitely did.

A lot depends on how you read and which books you're counting. The core novel, 'It Ends With Us', is about 115,000 words—that's a solid weekend read if you're absorbed, maybe 6-7 hours for an average reader? But then there's 'It Starts With Us', the sequel, which is shorter, maybe around 90-000 words. For the whole 'series' as it stands, you're looking at roughly a 200k-word commitment, not counting Colleen Hoover's little bonus chapters or letters she sometimes adds online.
Reading speed varies wildly, though. I tore through the first one in a single, very late night because I couldn't put it down—the chapters are short and the dialogue pulls you along. My friend, who only reads on her commute, took two weeks. If you're listening to the audiobooks, both combined run about 20 hours. The sequel feels quicker, maybe because you already know the characters, but the emotional weight can make you need to pause.
Honestly, the time isn't just about page count. These books make you stop and think, or just stare at the ceiling for a bit after certain scenes. That processing time is part of the read, for me at least.

I see people calling it a 'series' and it throws me a bit. It's really one novel and a follow-up. Calling it a series makes it sound like a huge undertaking, which it isn't. The first book is the substantial one. The second feels almost like an extended epilogue, wrapping up loose ends. From a pure word-count perspective, together they're still shorter than many single epic fantasy tomes. Your mileage will vary based on your tolerance for the subject matter—some parts are a tough read, emotionally, and that can slow you down as you need to take breaks. For a fast reader focused on plot, it's a blink.

This author once failed as a heroine… and returned as something entirely different.
Not as a savior.
But as the villain.
And she didn’t come back empty-handed.
She brought secrets.
She brought sins.
She brought a story that was never meant to be read.
Sinners & Saints is not just a collection of dark romance stories—
It is a confession.
A warning.
And a door best left unopened.
Within these pages lie twisted love stories where desire and destruction walk hand in hand, and every choice comes with a cost.
So the question is simple:
Will you turn away…
or step inside anyway?
Three forbidden mates. Three supernatural bonds. One twisted fate.
A vampire bred for bloodshed. A dragon prince who defies his crown. A demon with nothing left to lose.
For Marcus DeLuca, a mate has always been an impossibility. But fate gives him one anyway. A werewolf. His mortal enemy. And she’s already promised to her alpha. Will he betray his father and Elders to keep Danielle alive?
Aidan is supposed to be untouchable. But one reckless decision—one taste of Sarah—and he shatters every rule that keeps their worlds apart. Now he’s losing control, becoming the greatest danger to Sarah’s life. Can he still protect his reluctant mate?
Zane is used to being wanted. Desired. Feared. As an incubus, pleasure is his weapon—and his curse. But Elena is different. Smart. Ruthless. Untouchable. Not interested in him in the slightest. Can he survive the one woman who sees the monster inside him?
Their bonds are brutal. Addictive. Dangerous.
And the only thing more deadly than loving each other is what happens if they don't.

Right now, there are two books. The first is 'It Ends With Us' and the sequel is 'It Starts With Us'. It’s really more of a duology than a sprawling series, which I actually appreciate. A lot of authors feel pressure to keep a story going forever, but I think Colleen Hoover told the complete arc she wanted across these two. The first book handles the main, heavier narrative, while the sequel gives you that follow-up closure on the characters' lives. It feels very deliberate. You don’t need a dozen volumes to feel satisfied, which is a relief when my to-be-read pile is already a tower. I’m curious if she’ll ever revisit that world, but for now, two is the definitive count.
Some people online get confused because the titles are so similar, or they hear about a special edition or a bonus chapter and wonder if it’s a third book. But nope, just the two. I finished 'It Starts With Us' last month, and it did make me go back and skim parts of the first one again, which was a nice experience. Having just two books makes that reread easy to manage.
The time it takes to finish a book series really depends on the length and complexity of the series, as well as how much time you can dedicate to reading each day. For example, a shorter series like 'The Hunger Games' might take a week or two if you’re reading a few hours daily. On the other hand, something more extensive like 'The Wheel of Time' could take months, especially with its intricate world-building and numerous characters. I’ve found that setting aside consistent reading time helps, but it’s also important to enjoy the journey rather than rush through. Some series, like 'Harry Potter', are so engaging that you might finish them faster than expected, while others, like 'A Song of Ice and Fire', require more patience due to their depth and detail.
Getting a US passport book can feel like waiting for a new season of your favorite show to drop—exciting but sometimes painfully slow. From my experience, routine processing takes about 6-8 weeks these days. If you spring for expedited service, you might cut that down to 2-3 weeks, but it costs extra. The real wild card? Mailing times. I sent mine in last year and spent weeks refreshing the tracking page like it was a viral TikTok trend.
Pro tip: Double-check your photos and forms before submitting. A friend of mine had to resend hers because of a shadow on her picture, adding another month to the wait. The State Department’s website updates processing times regularly, so it’s worth a peek before you plan any international trips. I ended up binge-watching travel vlogs while waiting for mine to arrive.
