A review by retrogirlreads
The Scent of Leaves by Kathryn Trattner

4.0

In this modern retelling of the ballad of Tam Lin, college student Janet is driven by her love of photography. When she meets a handsome yet mysterious man named Tom at the gas station where she works, she doesn’t quite know what to think, yet is unable to get him out of her head. Tom begins to appear in all the places Janet frequents, and as wary as she is, she can’t help but be drawn to him. When strange things begin occurring, Janet sets out to find the truth about Tom, and the questionable house in the woods where he lives amongst people who give her a bad feeling.

This was a good modern retelling. There were some small grammar errors, but it was still an enjoyable read. I will be looking into more of Kathryn Trattner’s work.

I received a free copy of this book from the author, and am voluntarily leaving a review.
