“Gerikh has written an entertaining and lighthearted story that will likely appeal to most age groups. Magic in Mauve is an engrossing, clean tale that allows readers to be armchair tourists across continents and into the hearts and minds of Monique, Zorina, and Alison.This is a comfortable read that can be devoured in a single afternoon, and that’s a good thing since Magic in Mauve is not easy to put down.”

“This book is a page-turner. Each woman is in a different area of the world as well as a different time in their life, but each was confronting the same issues that many women face daily. Even for those who don’t read a lot of romance novels, this one should be at the top of the list.”

Manhattan Book Review

 

★★★★★
“Magic in Mauve merges romance with magical realism as Monique and her magical skirt follow separate, yet entwined destinies. I loved how the author imbues the everyday with magic and possibility and enjoyed seeing how the skirt Monique so carefully designs and creates seems to have a life of its own, a life that ties women from across the globe together. Twelve-year-old Zorina’s story is especially moving as her chances for happiness seem inevitably doomed to play second fiddle to the demands of state and her conservative Shah father. Gerikh’s characters are lively and richly detailed, and her plot is a delight. Magic in Mauve is suitable for young and new adults as well as the target audience, as it is a squeaky clean romance. Magic in Mauve is most highly recommended.”

“Nonna Gerikh has created an interesting and charming book in Magic in Mauve. It was nice to read something positive and lighthearted for a change. It would do well on the market and would work in the chick lit as well as the romance genre. There is a huge market for these kinds of books and especially clean romance. The women come from very different backgrounds, countries, and cultures, but they are not that different at heart. Because of the inclusivity of this, Magic in Mauve will appeal to many different women.”
