TTT: Top Ten Books I Picked Up on a Whim.Review: Traitor Angels by Anne Blankman.Two Minute Review: One True Loves by Taylor Jenkin.Book Tour Review: Loving Eleanor by Susan Wittig A.Book Tour Review: The Secrets of Flight by Maggie.One True Loves tugs on the heart and it's meant to hurt. You understand how she can wrestle with this huge life event for as long as she does, how her business is not yet finished, and how she needs to be 'free' to go forward. It's a lot for one author and let alone one character to shoulder in just three hundred fifty pages, but Emma is such a well-rendered and vivid, realistic person that it all works. TJR has explored what it means to be married ( After I Do), what it means to move on after love ( Forever Interrupted) before, but here she attempts both of these familiar themes with the story of one new character and also throws in the question of what true love really means. I love the originality of TJR's entire bibliography but One True Loves has my favorite plot and premise of her so-far four published books. One True Loves has TJR bringing all her talents to bear with a new premise about what it means to love truly, and it's just what I had expected from my newest favorite autor: funny and fun, moving and heartbreaking in equal parts. It's easy to fall into the stories and lives Reid imagines because she does it so completely from inception to conclusion. Her books are layered and nuanced quasi-love stories her characters are complicated women who resonate with all kinds of readers and who come to life in myriad small ways throughout the books.

She continually finds new, finely-wrought methods to explore what it means to love someone else with each successive novel she writes.
