Whoa, whoa, whoa! I really enjoyed everything about Darling Rose Gold. It features the complicated relationships between mothers and daughters up to the extreme with Munchausen by Proxy. Darling Rose Gold features the aftermath of Rose Gold and Patty’s situation as Patty is ending her five year prison sentence for aggravated child abuse. Patty has nowhere to go and surprisingly the now adult (at 23 years old) Rose Gold says yes to bring Patsy into her home.
What follows is dual POV’s between Patty and Rose Gold in alternating chapters. We learn what happened to Rose Gold during Patty’s prison sentence. As they possibly attempt to repair their relationship, it becomes a game of cat and mouse and I never knew who to believe as both are very much unreliable narrators.
For the most part, novels that feature unreliable narrators do not work for me, but in Darling Rose Gold’s case, it worked for me 100%! I guess it is because we have a case of crazy and crazier in this novel: Who is crazy and who is crazier? You will have to read to find out!
Neither Rose Gold nor Patty are very likeable, as the two of them together cause pure chaos! And it all leads up to the final part of the novel and I could NOT put it down! I just HAD to know how it was going to end, and the end just left me shocked! I did not see certain events coming.
While you may not have the perfect relationship with your mom, you end up being thankful for it after reading Darling Rose Gold, because at least you are not Patty and Rose Gold!
Darling Rose Gold is very highly recommended! Many thanks to Berkley Publishing Group for granting me a copy to read and review!
