Please enjoy additional book reviews & adventures on my blog: The Bull Crabs
There is something about this book .. I can't quite put into words ... but whatever it is, it's great.
I loved this book. I loved how long it was, I love the journey I went on, I loved how I slowly found out about each characters, I loved how I bounded around in time and in different characters heads.
The writing was magnificent. Just enough 'fluff' where I could see what the author wanted me to see, but not enough that I'm trying to skim through a paragraph to get back to the story.
This is a big book ... but as I started nearing the end, like 70% done, I picked up another book because I didn't want The Forgotten Garden to end. Ha! The story felt so magical that I started only wanting to read it if the sun was at the perfect spot in the sky, if I had the perfect chair and was all cozied up to 'set the mood' for the book. I just love it when authors can create a world for the reader that just takes over their life/brain. And that's what this book did for me. And for that, THANK YOU KATE!
Normally I read through other people's reviews so I can agree or disagree with people. This time I'm not going to let any nay-sayers spoil this beautiful book for me. So I'll leave you with, it's beautiful. It's wonderful. Please give it a chance and read it.

Zapomniany ogród, który cały czas tak bardzo przypominał mi Tajemniczy Ogród i to nie tylko tytułem.
Świetnie napisana historia rodzinna z perspektywami 3 kobiet, z 3 różnych lat i dużą tajemnicą rodzinną
Kto pierwszy dowie się prawdy?
Losy Autorki, Nell i Cassandry są bardzo ciekawe. Nell i Cassandra przeżywają podobną przygodę, choć jednocześnie tak od siebie różną. Rodzina Mountrachet jest taka okropna, że aż dziwne, że dziewczyny nie odkryły więcej tajemnic i trupów w szafie.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It's a quiet story, and it moves along at a meandering pace like a walk through the woods. It's strangely enchanting, due just as much to the settings as to the characters and plot. A great read for a rainy day.
