Infinity + One Amy Harmon 9781499535396 Books

This book has been sitting on my TBR list for over two and a half years. Yes, I know that's a bit ridiculous. It's a never ending list that gets longer rather than shorter. Such is the life of the bookworm. I digress. I'm kicking myself for allowing this book to go unread for so long.

Everything I've read by Amy Harmon has been astounding. They've been 5 star reads across the board. I don't know why I hesitated to read Infinity + One, but I did. If I had to think about which of her books has been my favorite, I would have (probably) said Running Barefoot. Now, though, I don't know. Infinity + One is definitely up there. I'm not sure which would be #1, but it's irrelevant really. I love her books.

Infinity + One is a beautiful love story about two broken people that find themselves together in the unlikeliest of ways. I found myself smiling so many times through this book (that hasn't happened much recently) and I absolutely fell in love with this story. Though I've already done a Top Ten Tuesday of my favorite books of this year, I would definitely have put this book on that list had I read it early.

Infinity + One Amy Harmon 9781499535396 Books Reviews

I was very nervous about reviewing this book even before I started it. If any of you read my reviews, and remember my review of “Making Faces” last year, I proclaimed it my favorite book of all time, and I called it perfect. So how could another book possibly top perfect? It didn’t. It didn’t have to. Just like I learned what the meaning of Infinity + One is, I can invent my own term Perfect + One.

There is no author alive today that can have the effect on me that Amy Harmon’s writing does. Many authors can make you feel. But Ms. Harmon puts you inside of her characters and experience the world from their point of view. It’s like magic. These people are real. There’s no way they can’t be. They exist, and I love them and I feel like I’ve known them all my life. And I miss them. I still miss Fern, Ambrose and Bailey from “Making Faces” and I think I always will. But that’s the beauty of an amazing story – the words live forever, the characters live forever, and the author lives forever.

I’ve been to the place Bonnie Rae went to, because I’ve been there myself, and it was like she could read what was going through my mind when I climbed my own bridge. Clyde? Not so much. I haven’t lived his life – but now I feel like I have. And I am so thankful I have never experienced the kind of pain he has.

Personally, I loved all the references to Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow. They were awful people and they did awful things, but they did one thing right – they loved each other and they loved each other fiercely. Just as our Bonnie and Clyde do. I always feel the instalove of soul mates in were creature books, and that belongs nowhere else. Never in a “real life” book. But it happens here and now I believe.

There is a feeling of dread that increases as you go through the book. Bonnie and Clyde may have loved each other fiercely, but they also died together. And it did feel like this was where this book was heading. No matter what they did, there were forces (the media, the police, even family) that insisted on telling their version of the truth. But in Amy Harmon’s books, miracles happen. Not supernatural. Just real, everyday miracles that once in a blue moon, we all get.

I’ve never cast a book before, but I have to here. Bonnie was Taylor Swift. And she called Clyde “Thor”, so Chris Hemsworth popped into my head and that’s who they were.

There is one more thing I want to say. I always silently mock people who say they laughed and they cried, and they went through a box of tissues. I say this because most books are fluff and they really don’t strike me as anything to get emotional at. And unless it’s a kid or a dog, I do not cry when someone dies. And nothing else is worth crying for. But I do admit that an extraordinary ending can bring tears of happiness to my eyes. In “Making Faces”, it was the very last two lines (much like the last two lines in “Sea of Tranquility”, another masterpiece. Here it was a paragraph near the end, about a dream told by a man thought to be crazy. The chills hit me, then I felt that warm feeling in my chest. And I cried, quite a bit actually, because it’s the dream we all want to experience. And then I knew that everyone…and I do mean everyone got there HEA. You’ll know what I’m talking about when you read it. I dare you not to feel the same.

So, there are two things I’m certain of Amy Harmon is hands down my favorite author. And when all of us go to our room in the Grand Hotel, people will still be talking about this great lady’s books.
Y'all...what a lovely, lovely and beautifully written book. I just finished it so right now, the full review will just have to gel in my heart. I think Ms Harmon is as good a writer as there is right now and this book certainly gives credence to that. This book was written prior to her current remarkable effort, The Law of Moses. So, sit tight and the emotions will just simmer for a bit before going further.

This book was so well crafted and the characters of Fin Clyde and Bonnie Rae Shelby stole my heart. Bonnie Rae for her ebullience and child-like innocence tamped down but not truly broken--there were so many 'stories' in the book of her going to the aid of folks in need...you just had to love her. And, interestingly enough, the sequence of her being rescued from the bridge as she was going to leap to her death is in actuality often true. Folks who have attempted to end their lives and survived (e.g., leaping from the Golden Gate Bridge) have almost invariably stated that once they 'let go and started to fall' they immediately wanted to take it back.

Fin Clyde, undoubtedly a brilliant, misplaced and introverted man, was my hero in spite of himself or because of himself. No matter what life and Bonnie Raw handed him, he endured. The loss of his brother (twin) and his freedom wounded him beyond measure; his genius was an odd fit.

Their journey with and to each other is absolutely lovely, hilarious, moving, powerful, raw, poignant, sensual and exciting. Yet, there is one standout scene for me...one that I had to read over and over again because of it's crystalline writing, depth and emotional strength. The park scene..that's all I'm going to say. It is literally exquisite.

This book did not get the reviews and/or attention that some of Ms Harmon's other books have received (namely A Different Blue and Making Faces earlier and The Law of Moses most recently) but this reviewer will put it up there with the best of them. Don't miss it.
