Maybe the FTC should read this book.

Sounds like a wonderful book. I have to admit I’m a peeker. If I really care about the characters, I can’t stand the suspense. If I couldn’t care less, I want to see if it’s worth making my way through the whole thing.

I HAD to, Laura. It was right after Haroun proposed and come ON. HAROUN was the best she could find???

Sounds like a powerful book, Susan, and I can’t say I blame you for reading the end (not that I would ever, oh no, could’t do *wink*)

I liked this line “Freedom means not even being aware you’re free” Wow – well said! Should be on a billboard somewhere.

Have you read Brick Road by Monica… Monica… dang – can’t remember her last name, but your review of Veil of Roses brought it to mind… the theme of immigrant struggle with new freedoms, etc.

Susan! You skipped ahead to the end!?!?!?!? Bad girl.

Thanks for this great review. You’ll be happy to know a sequel is in the works for sometime next year and deals with what comes after Tami’s alleged Happy Ever After.

Best, Laura

Do you know I don’t think I’ve ever read the end of a book first. A book that grabs you like this has to be excellent. Veil of Roses sounds like a really emotional read.

Wow, excellent and thought-provoking review. Veil of Roses sounds like a great read, and I’m going to put it on my wish list.

The book sounds great, but your timing is terrible ! I think one of my book clubs would love it, but we’re voting on our next set of books NOW, and I won’t get a chance to suggest it for another 6 months or so.

I’ve added it to my list of books to read. Thanks for the review.
