I got accepted to review this book years ago, but unfortunately never got around to reading it. Apologies for this.

Really enjoyable read. Good characters and a Good story. Well worth a read. Think others will. Enjoy

Apologies for the late review. Thanks to the publishers for sharing this one. It's a great collection of short stories about young love. As with any collection there were some I liked more than others, but it's a good anthology over all.

Love Hurts is an excellent compilation of stories and extracts from some of the most treasured writers of contemporary young adult fiction. What I loved about this collection is that it was broken down into unseen pieces of fiction (short stories) and that the other selection was like a publisher’s sampler which after reading all the extracts I ended up with a list of books that I wanted to find out more about.

I could understand why some people may feel cheated by this – almost like it is a way to make more money but I genuinely found it useful. No point buying every book when I only liked the sample of a few of them.

Love Hurts gets two big thumbs up from me.

Love Hurts by Malorie Blackman is available now.

I love other books by this author and this one didn't disappoint. I couldn't put this book down and read it through in one sitting. I would recommend this novel to friends.

I really enjoyed the fact that this was a collection of short stories. I had heard of most of the authors in this anthology but some of them were new to me which was great. As with any short story collection, I didn't love all of them but it was ok because I could skip about in the book and didn't have to read it in order.

I really enjoyed Malorie Blackman's story, I found it really engaging. However, I didn't like that most of the short stories were extracts from other books.
