Hello everybody, hello @HiveBookClub and welcome back to my mini series of Reading a Book Everyday for 7 Days. I am now in my third book and I am very excited to share this with you so without a further ado dive in and I'll show you.

The third book is different from the first and second books that I've read. "Layla" is another stand alone paranormal romance novel of Colleen Hoover. Yes, you've read it right paranormal and with a thriller element of course. CoHo really tried a different genre and I loved it so much, the bravery in going out from your comfort zone is just amazing and commendable. The protagonists of the story are Leeds, a bass player who desires to be a vocalist but lacks ambition, and Layla, a lady who believes in enjoying life to the fullest. The chemistry between them is evident from the onset, and he considers Layla to be the woman of his dreams. After their initial meeting, they immediately move in together and life seems beautiful, but their happy world is broken when Leed's jealous ex- girlfriend shows up. Layla barely makes it out alive and now suffers from panic attacks and memory lapses. He compensates excessively as a result of his guilt, and so their relationship suffers. He takes Layla back to Bed & Breakfast where they originally met, hoping to reignite and set their relationship back on track. But with her changes and the numerous inexplicable paranormal events in the house, he's at a loss for words. If ever I would picked my favorite points in the story it would be the following:

As I've mentioned that it is a paranormal romance book and that had me hooked because CoHo's books are more into contemporary romance and having this kind of book excites me as to how she plays with story. I am fully aware that some scenes of the movie is purely fiction and will never happen in real life but I think that what makes it worthy to read. But as I go through with this post, I think this would be also the reason why the sparkle which I've felt in the start will soon get lost.

Have you heard what other people say when someone just found herself/himself a girl/boyfriend? Those statements saying that it would just be amazing, book worthy, perfect and romantic in the first part, well their story fits with that idea. Leeds and Layla's first love story is amusing and sweet since they click immediately. When they first see one other, they try to know each other and the feelings that lie behind the surface. As what I've stated Leeds is very sure to be with Layla with the rest of his life and this is why he wants everything to workout amidst her indifferences along the story.

I am honestly hesitant if I like the lengths that Leeds (male lead) go through to know the truth about what happen to Willow (a soul but later found out it is Layla) and Layla (possessed by Sable, ex girlfriend of Leeds) but I admire his bravery to really know the truth even how scary and unreal the situation is. I only like that he has the courage to know what and why is this happening not the way he deals the situation most specially with the ending part. For real, if this happen to me I don't I'll be able to process all these events and if I am willing to kinda put my love one at risk.
