The One

angela_mckirahan shared a tip "I thought this had a unique plot. I liked the quick chapters always ending with a cliffhanger. It isn’t perfect but I would recommend it for an easy read."

christie_biggers shared a tip "The book is fantastic! The show is awful. Not even close in storyline… or… anything at all. They both concern DNA love matches. End of similarities. Stick with the book, skip the dreadful show."

jama_glenn shared a tip "This story follows 5 separate couples which at first had me feeling completely lost in keeping up with who was who. I thought the stories would eventually come together, but this really never happened. This did not take away from the cliffhanger endings that concluded nearly every chapter. I thought I had some twists figured out, but they ended up crazier than I anticipated. 5 storylines where you are invested in every single one, with each ending with the closure you need… highly recommend!"

kate_holcomb_705 shared a tip "Welp I’m up at 2am before an early meeting because I couldn’t put it down. Started this book around noon today and couldn’t stop. Great premise, great twists, fascinating look at what the benefits and drawbacks of what integrating technology into relationships could be. Kind of Black-Mirror-esque and I love it. In the 5 reads so far this year."

juliet_bauer-steinb shared a tip "Love love loved this book. Great story lines. Thriller feel with a concept that makes you think. This may be one that I read over and over."

heaven_heatherly shared a tip "This was one of the best books I’ve read in a long time! The short chapter made is easy to get sucked into each characters plot line."

dawn_currie shared a tip "With 6 different P.O.Vs it makes for a very quick read because you can't wait to get back to each character. Would you send in a swab of your DNA, to find your 1 true love/match in life? What if you were matched with someone other than your current spouse or partner, someone who is the same sex, doesn't speak your language or lives in another country, dead already, has a disability or a psycho path. Even tho it's technically "Sci-fi" honesty it feels like it's all the genres mixed into one."

can21 shared a tip "This book will be hard to put down because each chapter ends with a cliff hanger and alternates between five different stories. It’s a thriller. And it’s coming to Netflix so read it soon!"

kaylyn_williams shared a tip "One of the funnest books I’ve ever read! Hooked from the 1st page. #crime ##coolcharacters#deadornot?#gayornot#fastpaced #greatbook#"

emily_barta shared a tip "My jaw dropped every chapter! There were stories I didn’t care about as much as others but by the end I was hooked on every character. When I found out it was a show I couldn’t stop reading, I finished in 3 days and I’m so excited to watch!!!"

jennifer_5494 shared a tip "Super quick read as the story flips between multiple storylines, and each chapter is only a few pages long. Punchy wording. Some events can be a bit grotesque but overall, an easy read."

rebecca_lamb_3246 shared a tip "I read this originally a while ago because I heard they were making it into a show. I always like to read the book ahead of time if possible. The book was predictable and shallow. I had to trudge through the majority of it. The show isn’t much better."

adriana_newman shared a tip "Absolutely loved this book! A great romantic thriller, has some twists and just keeps you guessing the entire time! Very good read"

kiana_pennington shared a tip "The beggining was slow for me, I felt like might be surface level - but that soon shifted and it became a total page turner. I didn't put it down until it was done."

mac_reid shared a tip "It's such a phenomenal and compelling read that keeps you hooked. I couldn't get enough of the different characters explored in this book!"
