Author Colleen said in a post on [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/p/CrRNR3eO4Jp/?ref=celebritykind.ghost.io) that she's excited to see her impactful words turned into a movie by such a stellar cast: “Cannot wait for this. Loving the cast so far. Feels like a dream."

##### What is *It Ends With Us* about?

The book, which explores themes of domestic violence, masculinity, jealousy, heartache and more, has been a huge online sensation. In January 2022, it debuted at #1 on the New York Times’ Best Sellers list and has been a consistent point of discussion on “booktok”, aka book-lovers on TikTok.

It follows the present day story of Lily, a young entrepreneur who grew up in an abusive home and falls for a neurosurgeon named Ryle, as well as the past story of Lily's relationship with a homeless friend named Atlas. When Atlas reappears in her life years later, Lily finds herself navigating her relationships.
