Finding Bliss in Q&A with Dina Silver

Apr 18, 2013 Dina added it · (Review from the author)

I'm so thrilled to be able to share this book with everyone. Finding Bliss is a spin-off of my debut novel, One Pink Line, but NOT a sequel. Readers who've read OPL will enjoy being reunited with Grace and Sydney at another time in their lives, while readers who've not read OPL will still enjoy this emotional and heartfelt novel. I think the book's description does a really wonderful job of providing some insight into the story, so I will leave it at that.

Finding Bliss will be released 7/16/13. ...more

Dina Silver writes stories that cause me to respond emotionally. It's like she is writing the book just for you.

Silver writes stories that get into my bones and stick there. In her newest novel Finding Bliss, Silver writes a story that kept me up late into the night, one that was hard to put down, one that moved me once again. Findin ...more

She's done it again. Fell in love with Dina's writing in One Pink Line. Finding Bliss is a completely different novel but no less poignant. I have to say I squealed when I received my "Advanced Reader's Copy-Uncorrected Proof" Chloe, Tyler, Cam, friends and family...they are all so well developed that they feel like real people as do the situations they are placed in. My favorite line in the book will give away too much, but I'll just end by saying...get your copy as soon as it comes out this su ...more

My Review:
I enjoyed this book so much that when I sat down to read it I couldn't stop and had it read in one sitting the story is a fascinating one which captivated me from start to finish!!!
The author never ceases to amaze me with each book I read I find myself falling more and more in love with her work and writing style and I can't wait to see what's in store for us next!
It's a beautiful and heartfelt story (have your tissues handy because your definitely going to need them!) that will have you entranced and turning pages until the very end. I was also excited when I started reading and came across two character's that were in another one of the author's book "One Pink Line" I felt like I was getting the best of both in on package because I enjoyed that book as well and fell in love with the character's and wasn't ready to see them go so to have them as a strong foundation in this story is truly amazing and brought a huge smile to my face!
I love the message that we as readers can take away from this book and that is we don't need a fairy tale life to get our happy ending and value your friendships because at the end of the day when no one else is there for you and has your back you can always count on a true friend to pick you up and leave you with laughter! I liked the way the author ended this book It's beautiful and perfect and I couldn't see it ending any other way! So to all the readers out there reading this review do yourself a favor and pick up your copy of "Finding Bliss" because to not read this book would be a HUGE loss on your part! you'll be missing out on a truly beautiful book that will stick with you forever! ...more

Another wonderful book by Dina! The characters felt so real that I found myself wondering about their lives after I finished the book. I enjoy reading stories that don't always take you where you expect them to and that's how I felt about this book. Read it! You'll love it too. ...more
