In the Shadow Garden by Liz Parker
5.0
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5
This book, ladies and gentlemen, is the crème de la crème of magical realism. I fell absolutely in love with the imagery of this story, the mystery that slowly unraveled, and the characters who brought it to life. This story was told from multiple perspectives and was filled with beautifully complicated family drama, second-chance love stories, deception, and deceit, all revolving around a magical shadow garden and a bourbon distillery.
This book tugged on all sorts of heartstrings for me. It felt like a mashup of Gilmore Girls and Practical Magic and it was absolutely perfect. At first, I was a bit thrown by all the different perspectives, but eventually, I was able to grasp the different characters and their relationships with one another. I don’t want to give too much away, but do yourself a favor and give this one a read. I can guarantee you’ll be swept away just as swiftly as I was.
