Book Review: The Promises She Keeps



In Erin Healy’s The Promises She Keep, all Promise wants is for someone to know she has existed. She wants to make a difference in someone’s life. In trying to find her own path she encounters difficulties she never expected while persevering through a terminal illness. All the while, one thing is in pursuit of her: love, an autistic artist named Chase.  Their terrifying encounter leaves Promise with the sense that there is much more to life than pursing fame and she is forever changed by the outcome.

While this book was not frightening in any way there was a vein of suspense running throughout. The topics delve into the good and evil sides of both the world we see and the one we don’t. The ending was definitely unexpected and leaves the reader with a clear sense of what I think is the purpose and the goal of this novel: eternal love. With surprise characters and a twist no one sees coming at the end and even though this won’t go on my list of top favorite books this is definitely an entertaining read and I would recommend this to anyone looking for some suspense.
