The Perfume Garden by Kate Lord Brown

3.0

I won this one ages ago, so long that I have forgotten from who, and I never got to it. Not before I decided to try it in the car. It did take me 1,5 months, but it worked, sort of good, outside noise, ugh.

Emma is preggo, and goes to a rundown house in Spain. Her looser ex, oh yes I will call him that, cos damn girl, you deserve better! He cheated on her cos she was away too much, boohoo.

Flashbacks are of her grandmother Freya and her brother Charles during the war. And seeeeecrets.







It worked well the way I listened to it. It was interesting even if some characters felt a bit over the top. Like her bitch friend who stole her looser man. And this horrible creep Freya encounters in her time.







Good narration, but it took some time to get used to Emma, she had this weird naive, and whispering voice for her.
