If you loved Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine, you’re going to adore this novel. The protagonist is a woman in her early forties, Grace Atherton. She used to play the cello but she gave up on it after being thrown out of music school. Now she has her own music shop in a small English town where she makes and restores instruments. She makes frequent trips to Paris where she meets her married boyfriend and it’s in Paris that a sudden event turns her life upside down, making Grace question her life, her choices, and her past.

Beautifully written and carefully plotted, The Truths and Triumphs of Grace Atherton is a captivating and brilliant novel with engaging and likable characters and an immersive story. The author’s deep knowledge of music and instruments is clear through the pages and I found myself completely engrossed in the story. Superb, emotional, and heart-warming, this is a must-read of the year!
