Authors are always hoping for positive reviews of their work. A bad review can ruin a book’s prospects, just as a good review can help encourage more readers. But when you get a great review, it’s a joyous feeling. This week, I was completely blown away by this book review for Malawi’s Sisters by Sarah Trembath for the Washington Independent Review of Books.
Trembath writes: “The novel moves quickly, as its author has that rare gift of saying just enough to keep readers reading and giving enough to make them understand. We truly know the characters, and we believe them as they find agency in the midst of a terrible loss.” (Click the image above to read the full review.)
I’m so grateful. Stars and reviews on sites like Goodreads and Amazon really do help spread the word. If you’ve read and enjoyed the book, please take a moment to give it a rating, or say a few words on why you enjoyed it. It doesn’t have to be long, but it will be enormously appreciated!
