Review

Sorrow is a very unique and difficult love story. I have been very excited to read Sorrow, since I heard Tiffanie DeBartolo was writing another book. I have read and loved all of her books and Sorrow did not disappoint. Sorrow was one of those books where I couldn’t wait to find out how it ended but also didn’t want it to end. I cannot decide between Sorrow and How to Kill a Rockstar which Tiffanie DeBartolo book is my favorite.

I won’t say too much about the story because I don’t want to ruin anything. Joe Harper is a coward and always avoids conflict. He makes what he thinks is the easier decision. This causes him to lose everyone and everything he cares about. Then he moves back to his hometown to work as an assistant to an artist. October is another unique character. Will he let October get close to him? Will he find the courage to do what makes him happy?

Sorrow is filled with emotion, heartbreak, music, and art. Sorrow is one of those unique stories where I didn’t like any of the characters, but loved the story and cannot think of any way it could’ve been better.

What do you do when the girl you fall in love with is dating the most important person to you?

A must read for Tiffanie DeBartolo fans. Sorrow is a great read for people that like emotions and atypical love stories that aren’t always happy. I highly recommend Sorrow and her other books to anyone that hasn’t read Tiffanie DeBartolo’s books. She has such a unique writing style and always writes unique stories.

Thank you NetGalley and Woodhall Press for Sorrow.
