“Purdy presents a beautifully complex array of characters that touch your heart.” –A Bookish Escape

Piper Mishner has spent the last year trying to get over her ex, which is hard to do after he decides to move into the apartment next to hers with his new fiancé. As if she needs the reminder of how painful the breakup was. Not to mention, her job as a greeting card writer is now at risk due to her cynicism about love.

 
“I’m bored with you and need a change.” The infamous words of Kerrie Holloway’s ex-husband, who doesn’t seem to understand the concept of being an “ex” since he wants her to pretend for their kids and family that they’re still together. While dating others and living in the same house. She gets a job in sales at a greeting card company, and is finally on the way to saving for her own place.

 
Maude Gilchrist has spent over fifty years married to the same man. A man who, one day, just leaves. No goodbye. No explanation. He was just gone. Bitter and alone, she decides to postpone retirement from the greeting card company. Although writing sappy cards about love is the last thing she wants to do.

Through lunch hour talks, weekend getaways, and drunken brawls, the ladies of All For You Greeting Cards Company help heal one another’s wounds and learn there are more important things in life than having a man. There may be a generational gap, but they all have the “ex-factor” in common. Everyone needs a friend by their side. Someone to talk to, laugh with, complain to, watch your back…and to go to jail with you. 

 

Fans of Ashley Poston, Colleen Hoover, Emily Henry, Christina Lauren, Mia Sheridan, and Kristin Hannah will enjoy "Greeting Cards For Exes" by Rebekah L. Purdy.

Filled with humor, heart, lessons learned, and the strength of female friendship, this book is the perfect accompaniment for a weekend escape. Whether you're looking to laugh (the antics Piper employs to initially escape her ex!), cry (not full on tears, but definitely water filled eyes for Kerrie's sitch, and why on earth she feels the need to do ANYTHING he wanted!), or marvel at the possible WHY (still WTH-ing at Maude's sudden single-dom status), there's a feeling to feel, a sentiment to get behind, a soul to be affected by in this story. The woman are relatable, sometimes regrettably so (just given their circumstances because they themselves are AMAZING 👏), and I can easily see calling any one of them friend. I love the fact that they find strength within each other to pull themselves out of their present and step into their futures, and appreciate the chance to smile, laugh, and cheer them on along the way. 

A great pick for Contemporary Fiction as well as Women's Fiction fans, and I can't wait to see what this author brings to the bookshelf next!
