Book Review - The Suicide Letters of Jack Monroe

About the Book:

Susan Jordan awakens at her Santa Fe apartment, cloudy and disoriented. Her clothing is unfamiliar. Where has she been? Her nose crinkles as she smells his scent. Jack's back! Rubber filled legs brace against the stone cold tile floor as she reaches for the pile of mail haplessly setting on the table. Dozens of letters! Jack Monroe never stops. Susan wishes he would just leave, take his advice and go back to Detroit. He's gaining too much control! He's taking over!

About the Author:  

When I was a child growing up in the Detroit area, I thought I wanted to be a painter, and then as a teenager the idea of being a musician intrigued me, then as a young adult, I realized that I’m a writer.

After attending Western Michigan University for two party filled years, I decided to leave academia and explore the real world to learn what life is truly about. For fifteen years I’ve traveled the country working in restaurants, writing and doing readings wherever I was welcome.

While living in Minneapolis during my twenties, I was fortunate enough to be tutored by Dr. Jonis Agee, who was at the time head of the creative writing department at St. Catherine’s College in St. Paul. Her lessons were imprinted in me for all of these years, and have influenced my writing ever since.

My adventures landed me in San Diego, Chicago, San Francisco, and Oregon, finally leading me to the Land of Enchantment where I’ve resided since 1994. Living in Santa Fe, and the beauty and isolation that surrounds me, has inspire my creative muse in ways that no other place has. While still working in the hospitality industry, my passion for the craft of writing has never been stronger. And I know with each sentence I write, and every paragraph I compose, my ultimate goal is to find the perfect word.

Keep on bookin!

---- review by Crystal J. Casavant-Otto
I struggled with writing this review - not because the book wasn't fabulous, but because I didn't want to say too much about anything. So here goes:

1) This book will not take you long to read at all (I devoured it in one evening and quite possibly without even breaking to use the restroom)

2) You'll love each and every plot twist Mary Maurice includes in this page turning novel; you'll be at the edge of your seat wondering what will happen next.

3) The Suicide Letters of Jack Monroe is not at all a predictable read - in fact, you may finish it and have thousands of unanswered questions. It's a book that sticks with you. A book you'll want to discuss with others, and a book you'll reach for to read a second time (and possibly a third).

4) This book isn't like anything I've read before and it's quite possibly a one of a kind sort of story.

So...if you are looking for something new and unique to read and share with your friends and family, grab a few copies of The Suicide Letters of Jack Monroe and enjoy each and every page!
