Audiobook via Libby. I agree with several other reviews—Rose Wilder Lane is the WORST. Laura Ingalls Wilder’s shine is diminished but somewhat understood by her difficult childhood. I guess the same could be said for Rose and perhaps Laura wasn’t affectionate. In later years, they have a parasitic and strained relationship.
