The Language of Flowers by Vanessa Diffenbaugh
4.0
The language of flowers is a story about Victoria who just turned eighteen and is thrown out in the real world after years of foster homes and adoption attempts, her entire childhood in the system.
Her constant rejection and loneliness has made her hard and reclusive and all she holds dear is the memories of her last and final attempt at a home, at the vineyard with the solitary, and firm but loving Elizabeth, and the love for flowers.
We get tossed between Victoria in the present and Victoria as a child. We see the importance of flowers in Victoria's life and how the secret meanings of them gives her means to communicate without actual interaction.
The book is a beautiful and heartbreaking story about confronting a painful past and allowing love and forgiveness to enter your life. About the meaning of family, about the meaning of speaking the same language, the language of flowers.
