Book Review: My Year of Casual Acquaintances

My Year of Casual Acquaintances by Ruth F Stevens is a wonderful contemporary women's fiction. We meet Mar, a recently divorced woman who drops everything from her past and tries to start over. However, she has zero intention of becoming serious with anyone - neighbors, friends, or dates!

We follow Mar for a year as she finds and meets different people on her journey of rediscovery. Some relationships last and others fall to the wayside. But in each, Mar learns something about herself. However, she isn't truly happy because she isn't allowing real connection. The question is - can she? Will she?

I laughed and cheered and sighed over Mar. She has a big heart but is afraid to let anyone see it. As someone who has had to start over (on more than one occasion), I understand her reluctance. But like Mar, I've learned it is worth putting yourself on the line.
