A review by gnomepatronus
The Butterfly Garden by Dot Hutchison

dark emotional tense fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Character
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
• Flaws of characters a main focus? No

4.5

The book grabs your attention and holds it through the end. There are detailed subject matters that might  be hard for some to read. 
This would have been a solid 5 star book but the ending felt abrupt. After all the complex and detailed story it wrapped up with something very unbelievable.
