Sorrow by Tiffanie DeBartolo

5.0

I had no doubt this book would blow me away but I was not prepared for the abundance of fragility and depth that was delivered. I'm not exaggerating when I say I feel seen and understood on a transcendent level and I believe it's because DeBartolo has written this book with her whole heart and soul, filling it with complete honesty and vulnerability, laying everything down bare for the whole world to see and imbibe.

Some of the themes explored here are love, friendship, courage, the power of being vulnerable and a lot more but the spotlight shines brightest on ART. And with the kind of conviction and intentionality this book has been written with, by the end of it you will truly believe that art is expansive, yet personal; monumental, yet intricate and detailed; the way we see the world and also how we breathe and stay alive.

I cannot recommend Sorrow enough because how rare is it that a book reveals your true self to you? And the best part is, no matter the conclusions you come to, the universal lesson here that "love is the ultimate art project" is what we all need to remember.

Thank you Books Forward for helping me receive the ARC for this glorious book!
