Atomic Love was an August 2020 pick from #BOTM I listened to the audiobook narrated by Cassandra Campbell. “Rosalind Porter worked on the Manhattan Project as the only woman physicist. Now, years later, distraught over the destruction her work brought, she works in a department store selling jewelry. Her former co-worker, Thomas Wheeler, gets back in touch. He had broken her heart but begs for forgiveness. An FBI agent also reaches out to Rosalind because he thinks Wheeler is selling nuclear secrets to the Russians. Rosalind doesn’t know who to trust. And the man lurking around her store is making her nervous..,” A couple of great characters here. Rosalind - a brilliant physicist who is not interested in being a home-ec wife. Charlie - the former POW, whose hand was destroyed in the war. An attraction between the two. Reminds me a little of Jake and Sadie from 11/22/63. Russian spies and the real threat of nuclear war. The conflict that Rosalind feels between wanting to be with Wheeler again and not wanting more heartbreak. This book also reminded me of The Secrets We Kept. Great audiobook performance. I really enjoyed this story from Fields. #atomiclove #jenniefields #cassandracampbell #bookofthemonth #historicalromance #historicalfiction #1950schicago #bookstagram #bookshelves #booknerd #bookhoarder #bookworm #sodacityreads #bookish #bookreview #hardcover #novel #bookaddict #bookcover #bookhaul #bibliophile #goodreads #homelibrary #fiction #thriller https://www.instagram.com/p/CMuO7Nlr6Qm/?igshid=1gihlpgkg8502
Atomic Love, Jennie Fields
G.P. Putnam's Sons, 8/2020
Plot:
“Rosalind Porter has always defied expectations--in her work as a physicist on the Manhattan Project and in her passionate love affair with colleague Thomas Weaver. Five years after the end of both, her guilt over the bomb and her heartbreak over Weaver are intertwined. She desperately misses her work in the lab yet has almost resigned herself to a more conventional life. Then Weaver gets back in touch--and so does the FBI. Special Agent Charlie Szydlo wants Roz to spy on Weaver, whom the FBI suspects of passing nuclear secrets to Russia. Roz helped to develop these secrets and knows better than anyone the devastating power such knowledge holds. But can she spy on a man she still loves, despite her better instincts? At the same time, something about Charlie draws her in. He's a former prisoner of war haunted by his past, just as her past haunts her. As Rosalind's feelings for each man deepen, so too does the danger she finds herself in. She will have to choose: the man who taught her how to love . . . or the man her love might save?” - Book Description
Reflection:
Atomic Love is a quick and easy read. It’s engaging all the way through and I thoroughly enjoyed it. It’s full of mystery and intrigue and as a Cold War noir, I think it is successful. I liked Rosalind as a character but grew weary of her indecisiveness when it came to the two male leads. While I understood her motivations for the vacillations, there wasn’t enough substance to back up how much of the narrative was devoted to her internal relationship struggles.
SCROLL TO AVOID SPOILER:
Both as a spy novel and a romance, the book feels resolved, but both left me feeling pretty empty and unfulfilled: the former because there is a DXM reveal akin to the air being let out of a balloon and the latter because it’s too much like real life. I’m happy that Rosalind finds love again, and can work in her field, but I so badly wanted those things to exist in harmony. I wanted Rosalind to have it all damnit! I suppose, even though I was rooting for she and Charlie to be together, I don’t feel like ultimately, they will stay that way—hence the emptiness. While I didn’t quite enjoy the ending, I sure liked getting to it.
SPOILER AVERTED:
I noticed something interesting when I was reviewing the quotes I chose from the book. While Atomic Love is a historical fiction, some aspects feel shockingly relevant. Whether or not it was intentional, the current climate (at least in the United States, where I live) feels perfect for Cold War novels. I’m always amazed no matter how many times I witness examples of history repeating itself—and a beautiful aspect of historical fiction is authors get to make those connections especially entertaining for us to make, Atomic Love is no exception to this.
And, this makes the 40th book I've finished this year. More than 3 times as many as last year and five more than the year before. I'm either all in or not so much. #AtomicLove picks up in the life of a scientist who worked on Manhattan project years after the bomb dropped. Betrayed and heartbroken, she finally gets closure. #bookstagram #bookofthemonth #botm #bookstagrammer #whattoreadnext https://www.instagram.com/p/CH6QRfXnWvq/?igshid=l51jekwcbi2k
