House of Flowers was about a young girl who lives in a brothel in the Caribbean. It has a folk tale element to it, a kind of magic, which I loved. She runs away and marries a young man she meets. She runs into conflict when her husband's grandmother decides to play tricks on her. On goodreads it seems that many people were disappointed in the ending. I wasn't. I should also mention that the description of the settings especially are really lovely. Anyone read this?

Really more of a short story, but it’s a tale about a Port-au-Prince prostitute who falls in love with a man apart from her life. It’s an enjoyable albeit odd tale. In the middle it becomes almost fairytale-like in the tradition of Grimm and that was my favorite part.
