Emily asked this question about The Rose Code:

So this is probably the longest (almost a month) I've taken on a book and I'm only 180 pages in. Does it start to pick up? Should I consider this a loss? Please convince me why I should keep going or why I should stop. Thanks!

Ms. Quinn does a superb job tying all the threads together in an outstanding climax. Not only do we have a well-researched background for three heroines at Bletchley Park, there is outstanding characterization throughout. I found the decoding fascinating and the cameos of some very famous people sprinkled judiciously and not distracting. Your heart will break and your heart will leap for joy. This is a romance (times three), as well as an important historical novel. (less)
