Ten years after its debut, The Sound of Violet returns to bookstores nationwide with a revised 10th Anniversary Edition. This inspirational contemporary romance, which was adapted into a motion picture, has been reimagined with expanded storytelling and deeper character development.
What The Critics Say
“A sweet and entertaining romantic comedy.”
“By turning conventions of contemporary romance on its stilettos and swapping out the typical sassy, fashion-obsessed female protagonist for an autistic male who reads jokes from index cards, Wolf puts a fresh spin on the genre. A sweet and entertaining romantic comedy, The Sound of Violet touches on autism and the power of faith. It will appeal to any reader who enjoys a blend of quirky characters, humor, and drama.”
– Blue Ink Review
“Outdid my expectations.”
“The Sound of Violet was a novel I really wanted to savor and appreciate. It did not disappoint; in fact, it outdid my expectations. It was a really heartwarming story and dealt with the two worlds of Shawn and Violet colliding well. The characters in this novel are fleshed out well, especially with their detailed backstories that make them feel like real people. I almost didn’t want the story to come to an end but knew it had to.”
– Reedsy Discovery Reviews
“A refreshing take on a romance story.”
“Well-paced and easy to follow. The Sound of Violet is a refreshing take on a romance story that is sweet and hopeful, while also maintaining a level of depth and reality.”
