The One Plus One reviews from people you don't follow
One of my favorite books that I read in 2014. Its sort of silly and outlandish in plot, but you dont care, because youre just riveted, wanting to read it as quickly as possible. Jess is a down-on-her-luck mom of two (her daughter, Tanzie, plus stepson Nicky), whose husband has abandoned her so she has to work two jobs to make ends meet. She meets Ed, a millionaire who is also a bit down-on-his-luck (oh just some investment fraud charges and such) while cleaning his vacation home. Eventually Ed comes to their rescue (literally, as the family is sitting on the side of the road) and helps drive them to a math competition for young Tanzie, who is a maths expert. Along the way, a lot happens. Youd think the novel would be pat and predictable, but its really just
lovely. And one of the few books Ive really loved that I actually think would make a good movie, provided I can approve all casting choices, of course.
