Don't get me wrong, I love those books as much as the next guy..er.. uhm girl. It's just that lately I have been craving something 'more'. More angst, More struggle, (beyond what color of dress to wear to the society ball), more 'REAL'.
I definatly found that in 'The Tea Rose'. A magnificent story, of love and loss, struggle and survival, and the determination to be more than what life has handed you. A beautiful 'life and love' story, that felt very real for me. Nothing fairy tale-ish about it, just a handful of people willing to work there butts of to make it in a cruel world.. and the people along the way, some who hindered, many who loved unconditionally and helped ease the way.
I adored this book.. Can't wait for
Some time ago someone recommended this book to me. I thought it was great and then forgot all about it. I was going to the library today and read your post just before leaving. When I reached the library I almost immediate caught sight of it on a shelf. Kismet, I figured and got it.
