User Reviews

The Bloom Is Off the Rose (#6.13)

Rose feels like her relationship with Miles is getting boring. She compares it to her time with Charlie and thinks that she was never bored with him. Miles agrees to go skydiving with her but then he also finds out that she never did it with Charlie and their life was not as adventurous as she remembers. And Blanche is dating a guy that is a real jerk, but doesn't listen to Dorothy who tells her about it.

The storyline of Rose and Miles was pretty good, a great way to show how hard it is to compete with a ghost.

Blanche's story was good as well, the guy she dated really was making me mad. And I also want to mention that I loved that black sweater with gold glitter she had on.
