Run, Rose, Run: A Novel

THE #1 BESTSELLING THRILLER FROM AMERICA'S MOST BELOVED SUPERSTAR AND THE WORLD'S BESTSELLING AUTHOR. COMING AS A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE FROM REESE WITHERSPOON'S HELLO SUNSHINE.

A new singer arrives in Nashville. She calls herself AnnieLee Keyes, and she has more beauty, talent, and ambition than most -- and a dangerous past that she's running from. Her performance of original songs at open-mic night at the Cat's Paw Saloon downtown transfixes Ethan Blake, back-up musician for country star Ruthanna Ryder.

Ruthanna may have retired--for deeply personal reasons--but that doesn't mean she's stopped writing music. Every day, she records songs she'll never release. When Ruthanna hears AnnieLee sing, the legend decides to help the ingenue.

But a boost from a mega-star like Ruthanna may spotlight the talented newcomer's secret. Now AnnieLee may not live long enough to realize her dreams of stardom--or for the world to learn her true identity.

While this book is more about the music scene in Nashville than it is a thriller, I found it an enjoyable read and really liked the main characters and their friendship with one another.

I picked up the physical book to read this one, but then I checked out the audiobook as well so I could “read” while doing other things. I LOVED the audiobook and once I started listening to it I couldn’t go back to reading it on my own. Even if you aren’t typically one to listen to audiobooks, I highly recommend this one. Dolly plays one of the characters and the whole cast does a fabulous job. Happy listening!

I really enjoyed this audiobook. Dolly Parton is one of the narrators.

Note: The audiobook uses a bunch of different actors to do the dialogue, but accidentally leaves out a lot of Ethan's lines, making many conversations impossible to parse without a copy of the book in front of you to read what was missed. I guess audiobooks aren't edited!? Pretty big booboo

I think it was a good read. A prospective on a young artist becoming famous but just not my speed. I will stay a traditional James Patterson reader with Murder and suspense.
