A GRIPPING TALE OF IMPOSSIBLE LOVE, DISCOVER THE HOTLY ANTICIPATED NO.1 ITALIAN BESTSELLER NOW AVAILABLE FOR THE FIRST TIME IN ENGLISH

Legend speaks of the Maker of Tears: a man with eyes like glass, who crafts all the fears that dwell in people's hearts... What will it take for star-crossed orphans Nica and Rigel to face him and his creations?

Growing up within the walls of Grave's Orphanage, Nica's imagination burned with fantastical stories. Including that of The Tearsmith, a mysterious craftsman, guilty of having forged all the fears and anxieties in the world.

When at seventeen, she's adopted by Mr and Mrs Mulligan, Nica thinks she's leaving her world of dark fairy tales behind her.

But the Mulligans also adopt Rigel, an orphan who is as mesmerising and handsome as he is troubled. They share a past filled with grief and isolation, and the ever-gentle Nica starts to fall for her forbidden love.

However it isn’t long until the fears and the darkness of her childhood threaten to unravel her future.

Can Nica find the courage to embrace the future?

Forget her past?

And fall for her secret love?

The story is a unique story to be honest. It's intricate s and situation turns are really nice. It is really well described when it comes to childhood trauma, the voices in Nica's mind are really on point and the difficulty of Nica and Rigel of getting closer shows that our experiences drive us, the paths that we already formed in our brains dictate of how we are behaving and it is a hard process to overcome those.

childhood trauma really well described

This was incredibly well written. I found it a really interesting looking into how child trauma and abuse had a ripple effect on two different souls; light and a dark. I am in my thirties, so some of the hormone induced parts remind me of what it was like to be young and Inlove. It's all consuming at that age. This is a perfect story that underlines the importance of communication.

I litened to this after watching the recent netflix movie that I enjoyed but didn't really make sense in lots of places. It missed out too much of the story. "The Tearsmith" is a great story, the reader is wonderful and the book has an ending done exactly the way I love!

AMAZING!
