We begin our discussion by noting that this is a bonus podcast episode to cover the recently released film adaptation of Colleen Hoover’s wildly popular novel It Ends With Us. We acknowledge the film’s heavy subject matter, particularly domestic violence, and provide a content warning.
The film has received mixed critical reviews but very positive audience scores so far. We express our pleasant surprise at the quality romance book adaptation, despite not loving the original book.
NoteThe following is an editorialized transcript of our weekly literary podcast. If you would like to listen to the podcast, click the play button above orlisten on your favorite platform with the links below.

We provide an overview of the main plot and characters. Lily Bloom moves to Boston to open a flower shop and meets neurosurgeon Ryle Kincaid. They begin a relationship that initially seems perfect. Lily runs into her first love Atlas, causing tension with Ryle. As the story progresses, Ryle becomes increasingly jealous and controlling, and incidents of physical abuse begin to occur in their relationship.
Lily becomes pregnant and has to make difficult decisions about her future. We discuss how the film excellently portrays the nuances and complexities of abusive relationships. The characters feel realistic and three-dimensional rather than stereotypes, making the portrayal of an abusive relationship dynamic feel grounded rather than like the supervillain arcs so often seen in films.
