The Book of Silver Linings by Nan Fischer

4.0

As Constance researches her new beautiful antique engagement ring, something curious happens. She finds a book of letters, written by a man possibly connected to the ring, that tell a long-ago tragic love story. On a whim, she adds her own letter to the collection confessing her anxious thoughts and doubts about her upcoming nuptials. ⁣

Silly to write a letter to a long, dead man right?⁣

Until she discovers his reply. ⁣

I loved Constance's journey to find herself, and live her best authentic life as she tries to shake her “Constant” Constance “always-says-yes” persona. And the magical possibility of falling for a ghost? That’s a ‘yes' for me! Such a sweet story within a story, packed with all the possibilities of discovering that anything is, in fact, magically possible. ⁣

It’s a story of belonging and believing, and believe me when I say this one belongs on your shelf.⁣

My favorite though? Growler, the rescue dog. I adored how so much of the story is dedicated to Constance's passion to the rescue she works at, and it’s such a joy to follow both her AND Growler’s journeys, as they both rescue each other. ⁣

A very charming and uplifting new story!
