Kelly, Perusing Princesses Book Blog: “Trudy Stiles has entered the indie writers world with an impressive boo – get ready for the shockwaves to hit, because this is one debut you do not want to miss!”
Kathryn Perez, author of “Therapy”: “With so many books out there today, it’s hard to find one that isn’t just a cookie cutter version of the next. I personally enjoy books that are more than a “surface” read. I like to walk away from it having gained a message. I like to feel the story and characters. Trudy Stiles does just that with this book. She conveys with her writing a beautiful story that grips you, touches you and stays with you.”
Tiffany Marie, Everything Marie Book Blog: “The entire story will leave you in tears and provoke strong emotions from you. It is very touching and so personal, it’s hard not to love this book. For a debut novel, this book really hit the mark.”
Dee McGee, Booze, Bookz and Bad Boyz: “I absolutely loved Dear Emily. Trudy Stiles debut novel impresses the heck out of me. She took what could have been a straight forward dark, tragic plot and turned it into a beautiful story about coming to terms with adversity.”
Virginia, Love N Books: “Trudy’s writing is detailed, emotional and beautiful. She tugs at your emotions and makes you feel as if you know these characters. You can’t help but feel for these broken women and wish their heartache would end and they would find happiness.”
Dear Tabitha Reviews:
Natasha Tomic, Natasha is a Book Junkie: “Confession time. I was terrified of this book. Literally, breaking out in a cold sweat the moment I decided to read it. This is truly a book like no other. This story is told with honesty and heart, making the reader feel so many different emotions page after page, but most of all the author’s reverence for her own characters. I walked away feeling like every half-empty glass in my life was suddenly full to the rim, thankful for this journey and determined to read every word this author ever decides to write.
Robin Segnitz, Hesperia Loves Books: “Dear Tabitha is a powerful story of healing, love an family. I felt a range of intense emotions while reading including anger, rage, sadness, love and joy. I found Dear Tabitha absolutely satisfying and the best work yet for Trudy Stiles. Five stars for Dear Tabitha!”
The Danish Bookaholic: “Ms. Stiles has a wonderful way with words, and I find it difficult to fully express how uch I love this book. Every single page moved me, sometimes to laughter, sometimes to tears. My heart was hurting so much for both Tabitha and Alex, and my romantic soul could not stop hoping and praying that, despite Tabitha’s silence, they would somehow find their way back to each other again.
Annie Gabor, All is Read: “Trudy is an amazing storyteller who easily makes her characters become so realistic. You will feel every emotion they feel, the frustration that boils up and puts you on the edge of your seat, the heartbreak, forgiveness and love.
Beth, The Indie Bookshelf: “This is a great emotional read. Ms. Stiles makes you feel, laugh, cry and hope. Sometimes hope is the most dangerous emotion.”
LL Collins, Bestselling Author: “Trudy Stiles is an amazing storyteller, reaching in a gripping your heart right from the get go. She’s an author to watch, and I’ll be sure to read anything she writes.
Jesey, Schmexy Girls Book Blog: “This is a journey that will tear your heart out. The past, the present, and the future all come together beautifully to bring this story to an end.”
Sarah Griffin, Books to Breathe: “I will leave you with this: the emotions displayed between Alex and Tabitha, when they allowed their walls to crumble and their hearts to open, were enough to make the darkest of hearts smile. Just know this, it wrecked me, completely and utterly wrecked me, and I’m a better person for it.”
Dee McGee: “Trudy Stiles writing continues to keep me enthralled. Dear Tabitha is a heart-wrenching, deeply emotional story about two people overcoming a turbulent past and trying to find themselves…and love.”
