review 1: This was a historical event that I hadn't read about before, so that was interesting. My biggest complaint about this book was its snail's pace. Several times I flipped back to make sure I wasn't mistaken; the events took place over several days that seemed more like years. I couldn't skip ahead, though, because every page seemed to contain information I needed to make sense of the story. I loved the symbolism in the story. The fog represented Rose's heavy cloud of guilt, shame, and self-absorption. The twins she bore seemed to be the embodiment of Rose's duality. The mistakes of her past met her broken potential within her two children. Throughout the book, the burdens of her past threatened to overtake Rose's sanity. Would she be able to come through? You'll have to read... more After the Fog to find out! I received this book to review. The opinions shared here are 100% mine.
review 2: Going in, I knew this book wasn’t your typical romance novel, and I had some serious doubts about whether or not I would like it or whether it would hold my attention or not. It did. Absolutely no problem. I’ve read quite a few of Kathleen’s books, and this was nothing like what I was used to! Change is a good thing sometimes! I completely thought that this book was awesome. Rose was a hard person to understand, especially at first but the more I read about her, the more I began to understand and sympathize with her! This book is a “dark” book, but it’s still absolutely awesome! less

Eh. Not bad. Went on too long for me and I was anxious to just get to the end so I could move on.
