Summary: Incredible!
Comment: I really enjoyed this book. "Rose Cottage" is the first book I have read by Mary Stewart, and I really loved it! I am an avid mystery reader and romantic suspense reader and this had a little of both, not much romance, tough. The main character is Kate or Kathy and she returns to her old childhood home in England called Rose Cottage. Her grandmother has sent her there to retrieve some old keep sakes from a safe Kate never new had existed. Kate arrives there to find the entire safe empty. During this mystery, she meets old friends and comes across new mystries, and most shocking of all the dark secrets from her past and her family. You will enjoy this book! Read it!

Summary: Mixed emotions
Comment: After the truly awful "The Prince and the Pilgrim" I really hesitated to read this one as I felt Mary Stewart was past her prime and had lost it. This book, however, is a mixed blessing.
It starts out well, much in the manner of her earlier suspense novels which I much admired and enjoyed (and still do, I re-read them regularly even now, 30 years since I first read one). However about 2/3 of the way through the books it peters out to a very mundane ending.
I would rate the book 4 stars for the beginning and 1-2 stars for the ending, so gave it 3 overall as an average.

Summary: Favorite Author
Comment: I think I have everything written by Mary Stewart--at least I try. She so vividly pictures everything for the reader that one feels one is right there in that world. I keep watching for any of her books that I might not have and any new ones.
