    Her Name is Rose
    I tried to like this book but had a hard time identifying with any of the characters who all seemed to be impetuous in their decision-making. Also I felt manipulated throughout - way too many chance occurrences.

    Quick Read, but something was missing
    I finished this book in one afternoon so it did hold my attention, and I wanted to see how it ended. I was very glad that the book did not follow a traditional- search for adoptive mother, tearful, heartfelt reunion track and had an interesting twist. However, I felt the author waited too long to introduce Rowan's character and the late introduction make the book feel a bit disjointed. I also felt the 2 "love stories" were unnecessary and far-fetched. Maybe one would have worked but two felt contrived.

    That being said, I would recommend this book as a quick easy read, but nothing that thought provoking.
