More Than Words by Jill Santopolo

5.0

I am actually in love with this novel. Not only is it about a woman finding her way in the world after being controlled by the men in her life for her entire life, but it is just beautifully written.

I think this was the exact book I needed right about now. It was powerful, it was sexy and it was filled with raw characters. I related to Nina a lot because of all the critiques she kept getting for changing herself into the person she wanted to be. She became the person she wanted to be and if that meant leaving those who disapproved, that was okay. Your happiness matters more than keeping someone around that only talks down to and about you.

This is definitely a novel that I will think about for a long time.

I think this is perfect if you are looking for a powerful feminist novel and love a good romance as well. It is a happy medium between the two and I cannot believe it took me so long to read something by Jill Santopolo. I will be reading all of her adult work now.
