“The Love of my Life” by Rosie Walsh
Cathy recommends: The Love of my Life by Rosie Walsh
Genre: Fiction
Reading Level: Adult
Summary: Well-meaning omissions of the truth will explode at the worst possible times.
Cathy says: It’s a thriller; it’s a mystery which is unravelling one page and one shock after another. This book truly changed and morphed with every revealed factoid. There was never a hint, never foreshadowing, never following to a logical conclusion. This reader could not put it down!
This title is available at Tyler Free Library.
