The Tender Mercy of Roses: A Novel
by Anna Michaels
Excessive descriptions, not enough story(4/13/2011)
I really wanted to like this book. The synopsis sounded interesting and it was my first review. I was so excited.
The descriptions are pretty. But there are so many of them and they’re extra long and flowery, they lost their impact and became tedious. It seemed they were …more added to a short story to make a book.(less)
