About The Book

From the Sunday Times bestselling author of THE MEMORY BOOK, WE ARE ALL MADE OF STARS is ‘tender, poignant, hopeful’ Sunday Mirror.
‘A bittersweet story about love and letting go, you’ll remember these wonderfully affecting and very human characters long after you’ve turned the last page’ Sunday Express
Stella Carey exists in a world of night. Married to an ex-soldier, she leaves the house every evening as Vincent locks himself away, along with the scars and the secrets he carries.
During her nursing shifts, Stella writes letters for her patients to their loved ones – some full of humour, love and practical advice, others steeped in regret or pain – and promises to post these messages after their deaths.
Until one night Stella writes the letter that could give her patient one last chance at redemption if she delivers it in time…
My Review
I was eager to read this novel after seeing Rowan Coleman’s youtube video about the book. After reading the book jacket I was nervous. It was our Book Club Pick on Facebook. I was thinking is this going to be a book that made me sad and down. However, I jumped in and I was hooked. It’s not a book that makes you sad. It makes you realise how blessed each moment is. It makes you think about your own life and it’s importance.
The easy flow of writing makes you connect instantly with the characters. I won’t spoil. I encourage you to pick this up and relax into. It’s worth it and book I will never forget. |
