The Forgotten Garden by Kate Morton [3/5]

For some reason it took me a long time to really get into the plot of this book. Around half way through it did start to get interesting though, and I managed to finish the second half in a couple of days after taking 2 weeks to get through the first half. I don't think it helped me to get involved in the plot having the chapters jumping between 3 different timelines and, but once I sat down and really concentrated it wasn't too hard to follow. The writing was easy to follow and I liked the character development. I had already guessed the "twist" about 1/4 into the story so that wasn't too much of a surprise. Not a bad book but not particularly great either.

Recommended for: Those who like historical fiction and a bit of mystery.
