Run Rose Run by Dolly PartonMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
AnnieLee is on the run. She wants to leave her past behind and forge ahead in the music industry. She learns quickly that there are a lot of obstacles in getting a chance to sing, let alone to be discovered. AnnieLee’s big break comes when a retired country music star decides to take her under her wing. She doesn’t want the help at first, but when her past keeps stopping by for a visit; AnnieLee must trust someone with her present, even if she doesn’t want to tell them about her past.
Run Rose Run is a realistic fiction story firmly placed in the country music scene. I am used to most of Patterson’s books being a mystery, yet this story has the mystery component playing second or third fiddle. Parton has a story that not only entertains the masses, but it also teaches us about the struggles to be discovered as a music star. Whether readers enjoy country music or not, everyone can still enjoy this story of an underdog fighting for what she wants.
