MY REVIEW OF The Stars are made of Tears
This is the
story of three women, who did not know one another, but eventually come
together under different circumstances. Dell is a new mother suffering from
post-partum depression. Gladys has lived her entire life in her bedroom, so she
is like a child in a grown woman’s body. Then there’s Monica. She lost her
family at fourteen years old, and has thrown herself into her job, shunning any
social contact. Each have their own crisis, but unforeseen circumstances
eventually bring them together.
I liked all
three characters. They were different, but were also the same. Even though this
story dealt with depression, it had its uplifting moments. I normally don’t
enjoy dark reads, but this one kept me fully engrossed. I love when a story has
many different facets, but then everything comes together unexpectedly. That’s
how this story was. I enjoyed how climactic it was when it all came together.
