"This novel is a rare gem: a profoundly warm, witty story about art, love, and the journey of the soul from my all-time favorite author. Worth the wait! DeBartolo's emotionally rich characters remind us that it is both painfully difficult and astonishingly beautiful to be human." -Colleen Hoover, #1 New York Times Bestselling Author
"An art infused story about love with achingly beautiful characters." -Tarryn Fisher, New York Times Bestselling Author
"A smart, thoughtful work that balances romance with intriguing philosophical questions... DeBartolo, the author of How To Kill a Rockstar (2005), plays expertly with the scope of her story: It's both a clever love triangle and a deeper inquiry into art, communication, and the meaning of success. The central romance feels relatable as the emotive October struggles to help Joe open up, and Joe's self-deprecating manner makes him a likable narrator. At the same time, descriptions of conceptual artworks, partly inspired by real-world artist Marina Abramovic, lead to big, contemporary questions of human connection." - Kirkus starred Review
"Imagine you walk across a beautiful meadow filled with Indian paintbrush and Colorado columbine. Suddenly, you are struck by a lightning bolt. You're blown out of your shoes, you fly through crackling air and land hands-and-knees deep in a brook bubbling over moss-covered rocks, shaded by weeping willows. You realize you are alive, more alive than ever before. You howl for the love of life. This is how reading Sorrow by Tiffanie DeBartolo made me feel.." -Tim Sandlin, author of 11 novels including the GroVont Quartet and Jimi Hendrix Turns Eighty
"Sorrow hit me like a truck, and it's been years since I read a book that physically moved me and made me feel as deeply as this one did. DeBartolo masterfully crafted characters you'll fall in love with, root for, want to scream at, and ultimately see yourself in, with a story that is narcoticly enthralling. Sorrow reminded me of the power of literature to deeply move you, uplift you, remind you of all the possibilities, love and magic in this world, and help you fall deeper in love with life. It's a masterpiece." -Kyle Nicolaides, musician
