An English Rose: A Mother's Love, A Love Inspired by Allyson R. Abbott
5.0
An English Rose by Allyson R. Abbott
5 stars!!!!!
I will be the first to admit that this was well out of my comfort zone for a genre of book but I have to admit that I did enjoy it. The book was a very unique way of bringing depression and getting older to the forefront. I was very impressed with the flow of the book as it is in first person pov of Rosemary. Seeing things through the eyes of a mature lady getting on in her years was an eye opener. I am impressed with the authors use of british slang.
The way the author brings the story to life is refreshing and I would definately read her works again. Rosemary is a character you feel quite endeared to and you just see your own older loved ones in her or perhaps yourselves in a few years on. The fact that Rosemary is older doesnt mean she is surplus to requirements and I am very glad that this book does a real good job of highlighting this as well as the many ways in which we should also care for our loved ones and let them know that they are not burdens and that they do have a wealth of knowledge and experience to share with us.
