Alecia has picked our book for March. We will be reading The Forgotten Garden by Kate Morton. Here is a synopsis of what it's about:
A tiny girl is abandoned on a ship headed for Australia in 1913. She
arrives completely alone with nothing but a small suitcase containing a
few clothes and a single book—a beautiful volume of fairy tales. She is
taken in by the dockmaster and his wife and raised as their own. On her
twenty-first birthday, they tell her the truth, and with her sense of
self shattered and very little to go on, "Nell" sets out to trace her
real identity. Her quest leads her to Blackhurst Manor on the Cornish
coast and the secrets of the doomed Mountrachet family. But it is not
until her granddaughter, Cassandra, takes up the search after Nell’s
death that all the pieces of the puzzle are assembled. A spellbinding
tale of mystery and self-discovery, The Forgotten Garden will take hold of your imagination and never let go.
Sounds really interesting. I'm sure we will have a fabulous discussion for this book. So grab a copy from the library or a friend, and happy reading!
