Taylor Jenkins Reid has contributed to the genre of romance in peculiar and unconventional ways, giving emphasis to self development and growth amongst the characters that the readers enjoy finding solace in.

Forever, Interrupted captures the essence of young love and the loss that follows along, complicated human relationships and surfacing emotional tensions that are seen to be handled realistically in adversity. 

From the first-person POV with a non-linear timeline that skips back and forth in time, the novel has perfectly shapes the narration in terms of ease of reading and having a personal connection with the characters. 

A compelling storyline for a debut novel!

4.25 stars 🌟 "A supernova is a short burst of extraordinary energy... I like to think that you and Ben were like that," she says to me. "That you ended abruptly but in that short time, you had more passion than some people have in a lifetime."

What a bittersweet love story! I cried a lot. It was sad and romantic and so full of pain and hope. Wow!

The first book in a long time that I just couldn‘t put down. I had to read it in a day and I was close to tears basically the whole time. As always, Taylor Jenkins Reid has this way of portraying characters and their relationships in such a realistic way that you cannot help but feel with them. With this books she shows how complex grieve can be and how it influences the relationships with the people still living.
