Tiffany Blues by M.J. Rose is a lush, beautiful and suspenseful story about Jenny Bell, who is trying to overcome the tragedies of her past and find joy in her art. She meets Minx, an artist from a wealthy background who involves her in the Greenwich art community and then arranges for her to join her at the Tiffany home for a Tiffany Foundation art session. While there Jenny falls in love and finds her past coming back in to haunt her in ominous ways. This book is beautifully written, with descriptions painted so artfully that I can almost picture myself in Jenny’s shoes. The romance feels raw, tenuous and real all at once, and the terror Jenny feels at the potential of her past ruining her future creates a sensation of urgency and desperation. Maybe it’s just because I finished du Maurier’s Rebecca for the Great American Read, but I see many similarities – the beautiful descriptions, the suspense, and the romance. I can’t wait to read another one of Rose’s books.
