megnews I‘m interested to hear how others interpreted this. Did he feel, in one way or another, they were all already dead because of the lives they felt stuck in? 2y
IndoorDame I picture Rosemary‘s spot in the woods when I hear this title. So I suppose I think that dead is kind of a metaphor for depression in this instance. 2y
megnews @IndoorDame yes! 2y

megnews @TheBookHippie yes. Very sad. 2y
Butterfinger They were so enamored with death. I wished there was more to Rosemary's dreams or something about the nature/spiritual side of things. I think children into Goth would appreciate this work, but a part of me wants to keep the book away from them. 2y
mrp27 I honestly don‘t even know what to think about the story let alone the title! 2y
megnews @Butterfinger @mrp27 @IndoorDame @TheBookHippie it‘s almost like we didn‘t even read the same book! 2y
mrp27 Agreed! I see all the points everyone is making and I tend to agree but I was too focused on the creepy tone. 2y
TheBookHippie @Butterfinger @megnews yes -everyone reads books differently-because I didn‘t read it as consumed with death or creepy. It is. It‘s how thousands upon thousands of kids live. I see it daily. 2y
