Emily meets a colorful cast of
characters during her journey of
finding self. And, the question posed
above is one that made me sit and
reflect on how I would even answer
that. Love in itself is hard, but love
after divorce is even harder. We get
a row seat into how Emily navigates
life as she goes through a divorce
and shortly thereafter. Ms. Allen has
a tremendous gift in being able to
perfectly illustrate with words what it
means to allow yourself time to hurt/
mourn, bounce back, to allow others
in again, and most importantly, how
to fall completely in love with yourself
after someone tried their best to break
you!!!
I don’t do this often, but I highly
recommend Back to December. This
could totally be because of selfish
reasons because I am pretty sure that
I am not the only woman in the world
that has been through and/or will
share an experience similar to Emily’s.
This was my first time reading a book by
Danielle Allen, but it definitely won’t be my
last!
Reading in Black & White (RIBW) focuses on what’s written on the pages and not the person
who wrote them. RIBW values diversity and it is represented as a wide range of books
written by authors of all ethnicities, and genders are highlighted and reviewed. Indie and
self-published authors, as well as books that make a personal connection, hold a special place
in my heart!
