This was a strange book to read, at first I could not get to understand what was happening but I carried on reading wanting to know what happened.The more I read the storyline evolved and I can honestly say that I did enjoy it.

Unfortunately, this book was not for me. I found the writing stilted and disjointed are difficult to get into.

Three sister, Ginny, Molly and Sally are there for their dad as he is dying. They have not always been there for each other but this is the time they need to put aside their problems and help dad. He keeps asking them to find Rose and they do not have a clue who that could be so decide he is just not himself. The story takes us into the problems each of the girls have and what broke up their close life growing up. Can they solve the mystery? Can they repair the close relationship they once had?

A very touching emotional book of secrets within a family and of the ramblings of a man on high doses of morphine.5*

Finding Rose is a story that revolves around three sisters and their father who is dying. It tells the story through three different timelines, taking you to different places in time. I found the writing a little choppy and a few times hard to follow. I felt the characters could have been more developed. In general it was a good concept and it had a good message of living life and being grateful for what is right in front of you. I did feel like there could have been more to the story.

I recieved this from the publisher via Netgalley in exchange for an hones reviews.

This book was so good read, I love a story where you have different timelines. this book takes place in three timelines: the 1500's, the early 1900 during WWI and the present world. You have three sisters who attend their father death and his final words are: 'find Rose. So with that the sisters start a journey solve their dads request.

The plot and story line were amazing. I think this world building was wonderfully done. It is very easy to follow and the writing was very well written. I highly recommend this read.

A heartfelt story, as Siblings do bed vigil at their father’s bedside as they watched him succumb to the fatal disease that took him away. I, find the flashbacks to the past a bit too much, I got lost in between at times. This was a rather interesting and puzzling tale, with a hidden secret that ended up to be a great surprise for the girls.

This novel takes 3 different stories and interconnects them to make an interesting read. There is something for every reader - love, tragedy and loss. I love sister novels that lead complicated lives but who are ultimately sisters. A good read

Thank you NetGalley and BooksGoSocial for the eARC.
An immensely good read, FINDING ROSE takes place in three timelines: the 1500's, early 1900 during WWI and now. In the present, three sisters attend their father on his deathbed and his last words are: 'find Rose'. They embark on research trying to solve this puzzle, with remarkable results.
Was their father a monk in Tudor's England, as well as a soldier during WWI? And who is or was Rose?
I loved this book, it's a grown-up fairytale that took me out of myself. The characters are likeable and I thoroughly empathized with all of them. Highly recommended!
