This book is both sexy and sad, magical and heartbreaking. And parts of it left me breathless.
Forever, Interrupted by Taylor Jenkins Reid is definitely "not your average love story." I've never read another novel where a romance so right and a grief so poignant are as deftly woven together as in this one. Once I picked it up, I could not put it down.
The premise?
Elsie Porter meets Ben Ross on New Year's Day. Their attraction is instantaneous and very mutual. After only two weeks of dating, they've both fallen head over heels in love with each other. Five months later, they decide to elope. Nine days after that, Ben is hit by a truck and killed on impact. Their love was like a supernova. And then it wasn't. Life's like that. But that's not the end ... because "there's more than one way to find a happy ending."
This gripping, amazing novel made me smile, sigh, laugh, cry, skip ahead and go back and read all over again. It's that kind of book.
Happy Reading!
Wow! This sounds so good! I've only read one of her books before and thought it was pretty good. This one sounds way better. I just kindled her new one and am looking forward to even more now. I'll definitely have to kindle this one, too.
ReplyDeleteWhat's the other book of hers that you've read? I wouldn't mind reading her again.
DeleteI haven't heard of this book, or this author, and I am putting her on my reading list. But this book - wow. It sounds like a roller-coaster ride of emotion!
ReplyDeleteIt is definitely that!
DeleteThis is the first time I've heard of this author as well. Will have to check Reid out!
ReplyDeleteLet me know how you like it. (Or any other books by her that you end of reading.)
DeleteThanks for the review. This sounds like one I might like. I'll have to add it to my ever-growing list.
