Relation As Books The Snow Gypsy

From the bestselling author of The Woman on the Orient Express comes a haunting novel of two women—one determined to uncover the past and the other determined to escape it.

At the close of World War II, London is in ruins and Rose Daniel isn’t at peace. Eight years ago, her brother disappeared while fighting alongside Gypsy partisans in Spain. From his letters, Rose has just two clues to his whereabouts—his descriptions of the spectacular south slopes of the Sierra Nevada and his love for a woman who was carrying his child.

In Spain, it has been eight years since Lola Aragon’s family was massacred. Eight years since she rescued a newborn girl from the arms of her dying mother and ran for her life. She has always believed that nothing could make her return…until a plea for help comes from a desperate stranger.

Now, Rose, Lola, and the child set out on a journey from the wild marshes of the Camargue to the dazzling peaks of Spain’s ancient mountain communities. As they come face-to-face with war’s darkest truths, their lives will be changed forever by memories, secrets, and friendships.

Assessment Based On Books The Snow Gypsy

I enjoyed this one, and it has stayed with me since I read it. Not because the writing was spectacular, or because the plot was so intricate. I think it was something about being swept up in the music, the gypsy culture, and watching the two women's lives intersect. One who lost her family to the holocaust, and one who was suffering the remaining prejudice of the Spanish War at the same time. At the center of it is a little girl. I found it really interesting, and I enjoyed that the plot didn't



The Snow Gypsy has some beautiful imagery. I never cared for the characters. To me the characters make a book. I need attachment and want to enjoy their life. The characters could have died and I would not have noticed. The author tried to write in some moral dilemmas (view spoiler)[ sleeping with married man, she didnt know he was married, and sleeping with a nazi, she didnt know that either (hide spoiler)] it just made me disconnect even more with the character. I do not care that she had

I chose this book as my second free pick for January's Amazon First Reads because I was interested in reading a historical fiction novel that takes place in Spain after World War 2. The Spanish Civil War is also a subject addressed in the book and not knowing much about it was another reason I thought this would be a good fit for me. I love it when a book gives me the opportunity to learn something new but unfortunately the characters in this one really dragged the story down and I ended up

3.5 starsSet in post-Civil War Spain, this is an interesting story that I almost gave up on within the first five minutes since the first chapter was in third-person present tense. Thankfully, everything else after that was third-person past tense. I also had some issues with the narrator's inflictions (I don't know how she managed to emphasize every single syllable in Cristóbal, but she did) and her natural pacing. I eventually found the sweet spot at 1.30x and it went much more smoothly after

Blah- This book didn't really do anything for me. At first, it felt like a YA title as there was kind of a lack of depth in the main character's development. She just didn't feel authentic to the historical setting. As the book progressed, she grew whiney. The plot twists were a bit unrealistic and the ending too tidy. This was a free download, and it kept me reading until the end only because I hate having unfinished plotlines, but this is one I would have rather skipped.

Non spoiler:Very descriptive but not overly captivating... some of the imagery was really beautiful and I enjoyed the first half of the book immensely, especially leading up to and right after her arrival at the fiesta.Quasi-Spoiler:About halfway through I found myself skipping over the descriptions to get to the meat of the story. I had such high hopes for love to win, for forgiveness to triumph, for our character Rose to grow. She didn't necessarily need to stay with her man, but I think it
