This book was captivating from the start. The story pulled me in and kept me eager for whatever came next. I wanted to learn the truth, same as our main character, and we weren't really sure which truth we were after just that we needed it, no matter what. Secrets usually hide more secrets leaving plenty of truth to uncover in this wonderfully plotted mystery which leaves you a bit unsure what is real. Is June mad or are the rules of reality just a bit different for her family and their magical flower farm? And can you ever really know someone? Spend some time with the Farrows in the fictional small town of Jasper where the locals might be friendly, but only if you fit the norm. This story has a magical flower farm, love, friendship, non-linear storytelling/alternating timelines and a well done mystery to unravel.
