emswantree 's review for:
The Last Garden in England
by Julia Kelly
This book is centered around a garden at a Scotland estate. It takes on three different time periods with multiple characters in each time period. It is too much and too cumbersome. The characters are also
not very interesting. I did learn that gardening is stressful and means you have no time for karaoke. I did like the descriptions of the gardens themselves but it wasn’t enough to keep me from wondering why we needed so many characters when truly a linear story would do. I really am getting over this trend. If you want to write about the 1920s or 1940s please just do it. We don’t need a current day discovery of some old lost thing- here a garden. This device in writing is starting to break me.
