Not only do the two characters complement each other perfectly, but the arc of their romance isn’t abrupt. Jane finds a calm center to the storm that is her life on the subway, and her last ray of hope. She learns what it means to love and be loved, and to sacrifice for that love. Jane’s charisma breaks down August’s walls, August learns what it means to trust someone. It’s an off-the-bat opposites attract situation that has never been written more perfectly. August and Jane, put quite simply, make you believe in love. Now it’s up to August to help get Jane un-stuck, learning a little about life on the way.

But with the life-changing event of meeting Jane, comes the revelation that Jane is stuck on the Subway, away from her original life in the 1970s. That is until she finds herself drawn to Jane, a mysterious girl August meets on the subway. As a result of aforementioned issues, and some childhood trauma, August has never found a place that she could truly call home, or a person. August is a cynical and emotionally closed-off, 23 year old who’s just moved to New York City. Let’s start with the core plot of the book. I’m not generally one to give raving reviews, but this book wholeheartedly deserves it.

There are some that are bad, some that are good, some that are mediocre, and some that leave you amazed at the fact that a human being sat down and created the book you just read. At this point there are a lot of romance books available. Overtime romance has become an increasingly varied and diverse genre, more and more books joining the genre each year.
