Kate Morton's books take me to a cozy place reminiscent of curling up with my book as a child with no other care in the world, and I'm always sad for them to end. The language and sentence structure she chooses are soft but strong, whimsical but direct.
But I also find myself skimming a lot because the plot moves so well and I REALLY want to know what happens. It's a double-edged sword, I guess. But one that would make a re-read so worth it.. once you know the plot, you can settle in and soak in every ounce of such fine literary prowess.
This one definitely lived up to my love of Kate Morton and may actually be my favorite.
If you also loved The Secret Garden as a child, please go read all of Kate Morton's books.
