Blonde Dust


 
“Blonde Dust” by Tatiana De Rosnay
Published by Grand Central Publishing
 
This is the story of Pauline, a young woman who becomes Marilyn Monroe’s housekeeper during her stay at a fancy hotel in Reno.  Through their daily interactions, they formed a bond that then changed her life in many ways, for the better.  Part of the storyline also involved the wild mustangs in Nevada and the fight to keep them free while taking care of the sick and wounded.  Pauline, like the mustangs, needs to be able to spread her wings and live the life she intended.  Overall, it’s a nice feel-good story with some insight into Marilyn Monroe’s last couple years of unhappiness.  It’s nothing close to the level of writing as her best seller, “Sarah’s Key”, but it was still a good story that I would recommend.
 
Thank you to Goodreads and Grand Central Publishing for the complimentary copy of this book I won in a giveaway.  As always, the opinions expressed within this review are completely my own.
