#1 New York Times bestselling author Susan Wiggs went on sale this week with her biggest, most powerful story yet: Map of the Heart, a beautiful and heartfelt novel that celebrates the bonds of family and pays homage to the sacrifices of the past.
Now that Map of the Heart has hit shelves, we can name so many reasons to dive in immediately:
- A starred review from Booklist: “With her usual easy sense of grace and down-to-earth literary charm, Wiggs handles characters, setting, and plot with perfect aplomb while creating an unforgettable story about love, loss, family, and friendship that will resonate with readers long after they have turned the last page of this exquisitely crafted story.”
- Goodreads named Map of the Heart one of the Best Books of August!
- Harlequin Junkie gave it a top pick, calling it “heartbreakingly beautiful” and a “captivating piece of fiction.”
- The Romance Dish calls this Susan’s “finest work” and leaves you “[turning] the last page satisfied emotionally and intellectually.”
- RRT Book Reviews says the characters in Map of the Heart “come alive under Ms. Wiggs’s very talented pen.”
Readers who fell in love with last year's Family Tree will find even more to love in Map of the Heart, while any fans of Debbie Macomber, Kristin Hannah, and Elin Hilderbrand should put this at the top of their TBR pile. Susan Wiggs is an author “who paints the details of human relationships with the finesse of a master” (Jodi Picoult), and this is a novel you won't want to miss.
