The Houseplant by Jeremy Ray

4.0

The House Plant is an unconventional story of the friendship between George, the fern, and Brenda, his human. It is a sweet, sad, and emotional narrative with an innovative perspective.

A short & sweet read, The House Plant is unique and thought provoking. Whether you are a plant parent or not, this book will definitely leave an impression on you and you'll never see plants the same way again, just as the book promises. Really, I started thinking more about my plants too.

Coming to the writing, I liked how the author took the story through so many emotional phrases within such a few pages. The story feels a lot laid back, although not in a bad way, and is perfect for a quick read on a lazy afternoon.
