Book Reviews of Bachelor Girl (Little House)
Book Review: Should Have Been Longer
Summary: 4 Stars
It seems that happiness eluded Rose.
Considering the other "Rose" books, this final book was far too short. Personally I would have liked it better if the author had written on about Rose leaving to go with Gillette Lane in the real estate venture. I'm one of those people who doesn't like to be left in the dark.
I read "From West to Home" a book composed of letters Laura wrote to Almanzo from San Francisco. From this book, we learn Laura visited Rose and Rose's husband Gil Lane in 1915. So we know Rose and Gil got married.
But actually it would have been better if Bachelor Girl had been longer or even another "Rose" book had been written.
I thought Paul was awful to Rose. He strung her along for so long and then left her to cope with the "damage" to her reputation and her character after she and Paul stayed out all night. It wasn't their fault the boat was late or slow, but people who knew her in town assumed she was trash after that and basically let her know what they thought.
Later in San Francisco, Paul visited Rose and stung her with a remark about her wearing makeup and went wild over Rose's remark about an egagement ring.
This book is entertaining, but I couldn't help wishing for a longer read.
