The Red Garden by Alice Hoffman, 270 pages


This was basically a series of short stories all involving one town over 200 years. It was odd and sweet, quirky and disturbing, a really good read. I have only read a few of Alice Hoffman's books and every time I think "Why don't I read more by her?" Then I get distracted, and forget about her until I discover a new one, read it and remember how much I like her books. My mistake was starting this book last night at 8pm. The next thing I knew, it was almost midnight and I had finished the book. I recommend not starting this unless you have some free time or the next day off.
