I positively COULD NOT put this book down!
Imagine living in a world where an online DNA database and swab from your cheek could find your perfect match. Then, imagine meeting this person. It seems like a great idea..right? Maybe..
I don't want to say too much and give away anything that this book is about to throw at you. But here's what I can say:
Following the perspective of five individuals who forever what reason in their own life felt taking the test was a good idea. They're notified there is a match & they're ready to meet! (Or are they?) Each of there stories has a bit of love, hate, heartbreak, and everything in between! Each of their stories is vastly different but intriguing. I kept getting sucked in because every chapter was maybe 2-3 pages long but most would end with a cliff-hanger. So, I'd have to read four more chapters to find out what happened, and would get sucked into a different character's cliffhanger along the way - and then the cycle would continue.
If you're looking for something fast-paced, easy to read, gets your blood pumping, and hard to put down. Look no further than The One!
*I will note that even though I have not listened to the audio version of the book, it has come highly recommended as it has a full cast for each of the characters and I plan to revisit that in the future. But, if you're down for an audiobook - I recommend checking this out.*
