Rose by Any Other Name Audiobook (Unabridged)

" This book is about 2-2.5 stars. "

" Not as good as I remember it. "

" Read this years ago, I do remember liking it.. "

" The unique premise grabbed my attention--what other YA book consists of the teen going on a road trip with her mother, and it's a positive event? However, it was just too slow to get going. Perhaps this is why other authors have steered clear of this particular plot idea. "

" I wouldn't say this was a terrible book because it wasn't. This book had a good plot. McCarthy is a good author in the sense that she is able to translate the feelings of Rose onto paper well. However, the series of events felt unrealistic and left me puzzled in many areas. "

" The main character and narrator, Rose, had a wonderfully strong voice. Lots of great family conflict - would love to see another book to find out what happens to everyone. "

" rose rosie rosemary rosetta? w/e thts not even the start of it. "

" I didnt like this book, its dragged out and kinda dull. "

" Startlingly disturbing in some spots, but engaging, and a little sad, overall. "

" Heard the author talk about this book - really enjoyed it - young woman finding herself in her early 20s and the drama and secrets that impact on all families - from her perspective. GOod read. "

" I was excited to read about a road trip, but instead I got a straightforward drive full of flashbacks that got increasingly squicky. Big letdown. "

" Eh, it was alright but a bit boring... "

" Another excellent Australian author, another excellent voice. I want whatever it is those Aussies are drinking. "

" 19 yo Aussie teen takes road trip with mom to visit dying grandmother and flashes back to traumatic events of previous summer when many things in her life changed. Good, thoughtful, funny read. "

" Follows a young girl, Rose, on her roadtrip along the Victorian Coast, revisiting her past and old memories. A lovely book, but with a sort of empty ending. I love Maureen McCarthy's work though, her stories are so real and truthful. "

" wow...this was an amzzing book. i like how it was written in flashbacks. "
