In Infinity + One, Bonnie is an unhappy, famous pop/country superstar and has decided
to end her life after the last show of her tour. As she’s about to jump off a bridge, Clyde is
driving by and stops her from jumping. She then convinces him to take her west
with him. Throughout their endearing
adventures, the novel shares facts about the infamous Bonnie and Clyde.
The four Amy Harmon novels I’ve read are all so different. I
would call this one a character-based romance.
It’s fun and the characters are lovable. You know how it’ll end but the
ride is very enjoyable. It’s full of
coincidences and fate. It centers around gaining control
of your own life, helping those who need help, and letting go of the past. I
can’t think of much else to say about it other than it was light-hearted and a
sweet summer read.
It’s taken me a while, but I’m finally seeing the common
factors in Harmon’s novels:
- Looking beyond flaws in character, appearance, and/or ability
- Men with personal difficulties/struggles who are also sensitive and kind
- Women with family issues
- Two very different people coming together to improve both of their lives
- Absent parents
- Extended families
- Religion/faith/belief systems
I listened to the audiobook and, like the last Harmon novel
to which I listened, it was narrated by Tavia Gilbert. She, again, had to use a repertoire of
accents and voices and rose to the occasion.
I thought she did an excellent job. I’ll give her an A+!
