I think it is amusingly appropriate that I finished reading Rosemary and Rue early this morning – as today is its official release day. I have been reading the author’s (public and private) blog for quite a while, and even her descriptions of her role playing worlds have been fascinating, so I had some fairly high expectations for her book. I have been looking forward to reading this book since I heard it was getting published and was not disappointed.
