Book Review: The Girl with the Empty Suitcase

Yesterday, The Girl with the Empty Suitcase was officially released.

I'm not going to review my own book, for two reasons:

1. I'm not sure how I would review it.

2. That would be weird.

I am, however, going to take this week's review to feature an early review from Mari's Book Reviews. If you haven't checked out her blog before, she reads and reviews a variety of styles of books. She has a lovely style of website, and I recommend checking it out.

Here is the link to the full review:

I recommend you check out the full review, but here is a bit of an excerpt:

"Danielle and Mark alternate telling their tale over the course of forty years, from childhood, before they meet, to old age, after one of them has passed. Together and separately, they grapple to balance life goals, career, family expectations and affection. It is not a particularly colorful tale; rather, it is muted and understated. The sentences are short. The characters struggle to find words for their feelings; they come out sideways. Far from a fairy-tale romance, this book still conveys a heroic and enduring love."

It was a lovely review, and my first for this book.

If you're reading The Girl with the Empty Suitcase, I would so greatly appreciate your reviews, both through Goodreads and Amazon.

Thank you so much for your support!
