Darling Rose Gold by Stephanie Wrobel
4.0
I'd give this a 3.4-4, probably closer to 4 stars since I finished it in about 2 days!
I definitely don't feel like it should be considered a psychological thriller, that's my go to genre and this one just didn't have what the others have. I was able to figure out the "twist" if you can call it that abut halfway through the book. Although there was one minor twist that I didn't seem coming but it's because I wasn't following the dates are that listed on Rose Gold's chapters.
Other than the fact that I figure out what was happening I still enjoyed the book. I liked Patty's chapters where she was trying to come off at Concerned Mother, or something similar, and you could tell she was faking these emotions because that's what is expected of a Concerned Mother.
Rose Gold was an annoying character, but really we shouldn't expect too much from here since she was so isolated her entire childhood. It was nice to watch her (sort of) grow as a person while her mom is in prison.
