In reply to Sheree @ Keeping Up With The Penguins. The Recovery of Rose Gold just doesn't sound as compelling. I wonder why they switched it.

Great round-up! I’m actually really looking forward to reading Rose Gold (though a little confused by the various titles it’s been given in various regions – it’s The Recovery Of Rose Gold here, but Darling Rose Gold in other places? Why?), and Anna K and My Dark Vanessa both sound great!

In reply to CJ | A Well-Read Tart. I think my problem with Darling Rose Gold is that the mom wasn't manipulative enough. You knew right away were both the mom and Rose Gold stood, there wasn't enough suspense.

In reply to Susan Hosokawa. Oh, that mistake was all mine, not the author's. Thanks for catching it. I fixed it in the description. The book is great, and you should definitely check it out if you have the chance.

I wish people would do their research when writing about historical people. Nancy Wake was not an Australian expat, but rather a New Zealand expat! Book looks intriguing anyway given this mistake., so might have to keep an eye out for it.

Oooh, glad to hear your thoughts on Darling Rose Gold. I’m intrigued by the premise, but also kinda hesitant to try it since I don’t love Manipulative Mom stories, but if you didn’t like this one very much, it’s a Must-Skip for me, haha.

Pleasantly surprised to hear you liked In Five Years! I feel like that theme is overdone in literature/movies, but it sounds like the author pulled this one off and managed to make it stand out a bit. Might be worth picking up.. 🙂

I’m really interested in reading My Dark Vanessa. What an interesting premise given all the allegations that come out lately in the media, and the power given to women’s voices with #metoo. Sounds like an intriguing read!!
