RELEASE BLAST AND REVIEW--Letters to Molly (Maysen Jar #2) by Devney Perry







Molly Alcott didn’t expect to open her mailbox one summer morning and find an old letter stuffed between bills and a supermarket flyer. Penned in familiar handwriting, dated over fifteen years ago, the letter was written to Molly after her first date with the man she’ll never forget.

Week after week, new letters appear. Each marks an event in the history of their epic love affair. Each heals a wound. Each holds the confession of the man who still owns Molly’s heart.

The letters are full of promise, hope and love, but truth be told, Molly wishes she could unread them all.

Because the man who wrote these letters is not the one sending them.








BOOKISH STACY RATING: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
BOOKISH STACY REVIEW:                    



I honestly don't even know where to begin with this. When I first read The Birthday List, I was so drawn to Molly and Finn--so very curious about them and their marriage. When that book ended, their relationship or lack thereof was left without resolution. Then, Devney Perry announced she would be writing their book, and I was itching to get my hands on it. 

First off, know that you can read this without reading The Birthday List, but honestly, that book is so ridiculously good, you should just go ahead and read it if you haven't.

Second, I have been a fan of Ms. Perry's work since The Coppersmith Farmhouse. I have enjoyed every single one of her books and while I can't say that this one is my favorite, (I'd never be able to choose) I will say that this book made me feel the most out of all of her books.

Anyone who's been married more than a minute knows that it's hard! You sometimes lose little pieces of yourself. There are things that push you apart and when you add in kids and the struggles of life, sometimes things break.

"The thing about divorce is, there isn’t always one mistake. One nuclear bomb dropped on a couple that destroys their marriage. Sometimes, it creeps up on you slowly."

I LOVED THIS BOOK!
I felt EVERYTHING from the moment Finn and Molly met.  I felt their joys and struggles. I felt their pain and happiness. I felt their fear and hopes and worries about the future...and worries about the past. I felt the uncertainty of them trying to learn how to move on and not knowing what that should look like.

"My heart can't take another ending with you."

There was not a page of this book where I wasn't teary eyed. I'm not gonna lie and say that a lot of those tears weren't due to sadness, but I found myself smiling through tears of happiness, too.

"I found the Molly without the Finn. This time around, I was holding on to her with a death grip.  She was too important to lose again."

Devney Perry has once again raised the bar. This book is about as real as it gets. It's everything I wanted and more after The Birthday List, and truly a journey that is not to be missed.

"From now until the end of our days, Molly would get my letters"
