“Roses
have both Pretty Petals and thorns, my dark flower. You needn’t believe something
weak because it appears delicate. Show the world your bravery.”
Audrey Rose is just your ordinary
seventeen year old girl except that she is interested in forensic science. In
her time, young women should only be concerned with social teas, the latest
gossip and embroidery. Audrey Rose would much rather be working with her Uncle
in his lab trying to find out her Jack the Ripper is.
My two favorite characters are Audrey
Rose and Thomas Cresswell. I couldn’t choose between the two as my favorite so
they both receive that honor. Audrey is described as being very pretty but she
is more than what she appears. She is strong and very intelligent. She wants to
be able to think for herself and make her own decisions. She also loves fashion
just as much as she likes forensic science. She doesn’t think that she should
have to give up nice clothes because she likes science.
Thomas Cresswell is going on my list
of fictional boyfriends. He’s very intelligent and he knows it. He sometimes
comes across as a bit arrogant. He can also seem a bit cold at times. He shuts
off his emotions like a light switch. He’s also extremely handsome just in case
you didn’t guess that.
Audrey Rose and Thomas have such
great chemistry together. Most of my favorite scenes were of Audrey and Thomas
working together to solve the mystery. They support each other and Thomas doesn’t
think Audrey is weak or fragile because she’s a girl. He challenges her
throughout the book to think for herself. Overall I really recommend this book.
It has the right amount of mystery and romance. I had a hard time putting the
book down because I want to know what happened next.
