The Forgotten Garden is a compelling story about several generations of an aristocratic family. The story encompasses a secret garden, a maze, ghosts, fairy tales, family secrets, and a mystery. This historic novel is a page turner and will make you think about your own family's history. Excellent read for any fan of historical-chick-lit-mysteries.
The pace and storyline was excellent. Many interweaving stories which was great. Will read again.
This book affected me more than it normally would have. Maybe I was in the right frame of mind to read it. Or, it was something else. Either way, I now count it amongst books that made me cry — in a good way!
Easy read, enjoyable, but some plot and character development is a little hard to believe.
It was a pretty good story, but for some reason I was disappointed by the ending. It wasn't as scandalous as I thought it could be.
