    From the time I began 28 1/2 Wishes, I fell in love with Rose. She is quirky, funny, naïve, and believable. I am so glad there is a box set to get the books and novellas together - it makes reading the series on the Kindle so much easier. Once you start reading, you won't stop after the first novel. I had already purchased the books individually for iBooks, but I purchased the box sets to use on my new Kindle. I love how the box set flows seamlessly form one book to the next.

    The Rose Gardner Mystery series is one of the best series out there and you will want to read this book. The series follows the adventures or maybe it's misadventures of one Rose Gardner. She is small town girl, who has the gift of visions. Her whole life she has been abused by her mother and made to feel like a freak. She has no life and no friends, until the day she sees her own life ends. As she decides to take control of her life and to finally start living a whole new worlds opens up to Rose. She friends some great friends, find and loses the love of her life and learns that her gift is not something to fear but is something that can be used to help people. Pick up this box set and come on a journey of a girl who was lost but begins to find herself through everything she experiences

    My all time favorite series!! I can't get enough of Rose!!! This series will draw you in from book one and keep you turning the page until your caught up with the series. Then you will be in withdrawal waiting for the next book to be released. The series is humorous, heartwarming and emotional. Denise is an excellent writer and has a way of have making the characters real to you. You will obsess over this series, trust me I know from experience. I highly recommend her books to everyone. Make sure you start with book one in the series "Twenty-Eight and a Half Wishes".

    So instead of buying each book separately of the series, buy this!!! It'll save you money, and you have 4 books in one! :) As a review for the Rose Gardner mysteries so far, they are fantastic! It's a mix of great romance, mystery and suspense. Perfect combination this author is able to combine using her skills! I got addicted since book 1, and read the entire series up to its latest book released with just a few days! The only bad I can say, is that some parts seemed rushed, as you'll notice spelling errors, too. Other than that, it's an awesome Y.A. series! I love Rose, her detailed romance with Joe, and all of the clues that you come across while reading leading up to the big mystery ending. Also each book is intertwined together, so you can't skip any! I like the short novella (last book so far in this combo deal), as it leaves you off with a great perspective on Rose while we wait to continue onto the next book in the series (and it shows you what other characters are doing/feeling by being narrated through their eyes, too! The only book of the series that did that so far...). I'm excited to see the next sequel of Rose and what happens! I'm hoping we get it as part of this combo deal, as it is listed in the description, but was not yet released. :) Worth reading, I swear!
