Stephanie Wrobel's Darling Rose Gold
This is being billed as a thriller, but it doesn’t have the level of suspense and intensity I’d expect. It’s the story of a woman who’s just been released from prison—she was in for Munchausen by Proxy—and now her daughter, her victim, a new mother, is letting her stay in her guest room. This is interspersed with the story of the daughter after her mother was arrested. I found this to be a slightly stressful read and a major bummer, while also being a little bit slow. The end was interesting enough but I wished it had gotten where it was going a little earlier. I think the concept is what is making this book so buzzy, as opposed to the actual story. Oh well. B/B-.
