The Snow Gypsy by Lindsay Jayne Ashford

3.0

The Snow Gypsy wasn’t quite what I expected. It’s a really beautiful tale of fate bringing two women and a child together who all learn the truth about their loved ones, but it has this underlying darkness and sadness. I wanted more of the backstory of some of the other main-player characters beyond Rose and Lola, like Lola’s brother. I think the additional character development would have added the depth of the story I was looking for beyond just mentioning oops I hid this from you! And moving quickly on. I guess what it comes down to is I’m missing the “why” of some of the character’s actions which is the part that really gives depth and relate-ability for me.

Overall, I’ll give this three stars. It really is a touching story but it’s missing a little something extra for me.
