A Fall of Marigolds by Susan Meissner
4.0
A very sweet story, if a bit overdone. I thoroughly enjoyed the parallels and appreciated the authors ability to use two events to paint one story, but the character development was not done with nearly enough depth to really, truly care about them. I felt as if I was dropped into the middle of their story, which is not the end of the world, but I never felt I had enough background on any of them to truly care what happened to them. And, without spoiling, Dr Randall was just far too much. The twist at the end of Taryn’s story was predictable, but very sweet and I thought gave her a good ending. I did not feel the same level of closure for Clara’s. Overall, a good (quick!) read. Excellent for a summer beach read.
