I have to say, I love the subtlety of that some authors have the ability to bring to a romance novel. Sometimes you need that slow burn and that slow building that envelops so many emotions and feelings.
This author did a magnificent job, in my opinion, with this upcoming release. Continue on for my full review below.
The Book of Silver Linings by Nan Fischer
Publisher: Berkley (August 15, 2023)
ISBN-13: 978-0593438718
SYNOPSIS:
Constance Sparks always says yes…when her capricious best friend needs money; when her boss gives her more responsibility without a raise; and when her boyfriend, Hayden, who is very kind but also secretive, asks her to marry him.
While planning their wedding—and struggling with anxiety about the right course for her future—Constance researches the history of her antique engagement ring and unearths the name of a man who might be connected to it, plus his tragic love story. When she finds a book of letters in her library’s old manuscript section written by the long-dead man, Constance is deeply touched by his words and leaves a note for him confessing her uncertainty and doubts. She’s shocked days later to find a response tucked among the pages.
As the notes continue to arrive, Constance finds herself quickly falling in love with a ghost and putting her real-life relationship in jeopardy. Will a bond based on letters impossibly sent from the past derail her future? Or will Constance discover her voice and risk everything for the chance to somehow connect with her true soul mate?
The Book of Silver Linings by Nan Fischer Review
I love so many parts of this book. It reads a lot like women’s fiction but it’s also a slow-building romance that just warms the heart.
This book teaches us about resilience, believing in yourself, understanding, accepting who you are, and being comfortable with yourself. Fischer also takes on being open and not compromising yourself, which is sometimes very hard to do. I saw a lot of myself in this book.
The author weaves a heartfelt story that touches your soul. Her characters are strong and, in many instances, decisions are tough. There are some heartbreaking moments, but she leads us into and through healing and that happy ending we crave.
This book is very special. It is a deeply touching novel about finding your true self, believing in your own worth, and learning you deserve love. It’s definitely a story that you will take to heart and remember for a long time to come.
5 STARS!!
