About this audiobook
Elsie Porter is an average twentysomething and yet what happens to her is anything but ordinary. On a rainy New Year's Day, she heads out to pick up a pizza for one. She isn't expecting to see anyone else in the shop, much less the adorable and charming Ben Ross. Their chemistry is instant and electric. Within weeks, the two are head over heels in love. By May, they've eloped. Only nine days later, Ben is out riding his bike when he is hit by a truck and killed on impact. At the hospital, she must face Susan, the mother-in-law she has never met - and who doesn't even know Elsie exists.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5I read Daisy Jones & The Six, a The Seven Husband's of Evelyn Hugo in 2019 and the ywere two of my favorite books so I had high hopes for this one too.. Sadly in didn't live up to my expectations.. its an okay book but it didn't leave a hole in my chest like the other 2.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5I felt like I was reading an epi of teen mom.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Another great book. I didn’t enjoy it as much as some of her others, partly because the climax happens within the first chapter, but this book was still incredible. TJR’s capability of making you feel the character’s pain is remarkable. If you want to induce a 9 hour cry, this book can do that for you.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Wonderful bittersweet moments and a lot of heart make this a story you do t want to miss.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I liked it! Not so much as the rest of her books, but it was nice.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I will read anything this author publish. Every book I read by her I loved! And this one even when so sad was AMAZING.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I received an advanced uncorrected digital galley of Forever, Interrupted by Taylor Jenkins Reid from NetGalley.com in return for my honest review.Forever, Interrupted juxtaposed the emotions of ecstatic, excited, all-consuming love with the feelings of heart-shattering devastation and desolation due to tragic loss. Elsie Porter married her husband, Ben Ross, only ten days prior to his death, and dated him for only five months prior to their elopement. Yet, for the short time that they knew one another, their love was intense and extraordinarily passion-filled. When Ben is killed in a bicycling accident, Elsie's world fell apart, and she slowly recovered through the help of the mother-in-law that she had never met.Through alternating chapters between the present and the past, the reader learned how Elsie and Ben met and fell in love, but also how Elsie was coping after the love of her life was taken from her. There were parts of the book that were a little sappy and their love story did progress very quickly, but this reader, who normally would not find a love-at-first sight story believable, enjoyed the novel immensely. I especially liked the relationship that developed between Elsie and her mother-in-law Susan. Rarely is the mother-in-law/daughter-in-law relationship portrayed so positively, and I very much liked that after conquering some realistic hurdles, these two women were able to form a loving bond with one another. I also loved, loved, loved the friendship Elsie developed with George Callahan, the older gentleman from the library. Though Mr. Callahan only visited the pages of the book minimally, his impact was far-reaching. If I had any complaints about the work it would be that it was a little too long, and that sometimes profanity was used where it was unnecessary and took away some of the credibility of the characters. Perhaps this is the way twenty-somethings speak to each other today, but I found the use of the profanity a distraction rather than an enhancement to the story.Don't be deceived into thinking that this book is Chick-Lit. It is a very substantial story addressing significant issues, but it was an easy and quick read too. I recommend reading it.
