The One by John Marrs

I had The One by John Marrs on my reading wishlist for quite awhile before I decided to listen to the unabridged audio version this month. The One by John Marrs is narrated by five different narrators. One narrator for each of the five main characters in The One.

The One by John Marrs is a really great read!! It is a work of contemporary fiction.  There are so many twists and turns that happen within this novel that you sit on the edge of your seat for this roller coaster ride of a novel. 

I really enjoyed the premise of The One by John Marrs as it made for a great read. I also enjoyed the writing, the plot twists, and the characters for this novel. There are 5 main characters; 2 men and 3 women. Each chapter focuses on one of the main characters and what's going on in their lives at that moment. Each chapter ends with a bombshell that has you greedily wanting to see what happens next... So onward you read!!

The entire premise of The One by John Marrs is how far would one go to find the love of their life? A simple DNA has been created to match you with your perfect partner. What could go wrong? Read The One by John Marrs to find out that all is not perfect with regard to finding your perfect match... Even a DNA test doesn't guarantee perfect results in finding true love. 

Below is the publisher's summary for The One by John Marrs from Amazon's website:

How far would you go to find The One?

A simple DNA test is all it takes. Just a quick mouth swab and soon you’ll be matched with your perfect partner—the one you’re genetically made for.

That’s the promise made by Match Your DNA. A decade ago, the company announced that they had found the gene that pairs each of us with our soul mate. Since then, millions of people around the world have been matched. But the discovery has its downsides: test results have led to the breakup of countless relationships and upended the traditional ideas of dating, romance and love.

Now five very different people have received the notification that they’ve been “Matched.” They’re each about to meet their one true love. But “happily ever after” isn’t guaranteed for everyone. Because even soul mates have secrets. And some are more shocking than others…

A word-of-mouth hit in the United Kingdom, The One is a fascinating novel that shows how even the simplest discoveries can have complicated consequences.

I am giving The One by John Marrs a rating of 4 stars out of 5 stars.

Until my next post, happy reading!!
