Sunday 23 September 2018The Lost Flowers of Alice Hart by Australian author Holly Ringland.
We met at Jim and Mari's place and Monika brought the shortlist.
Ratings (out of 17):
Monika 11 - first half doesn’t match second half
Johanna 8 benign; didn’t learn anything
Cherie - 15 - liked the use of flowers as the medium for telling a story - but hasn’t finished it yet
Wendy - tentative 13 haven’t finished yet but enjoying so far - like the imagery but concerned about some of your criticisms
Tim - 12 - enjoy but frustrated at same time
James - 10 - made decision not to finish
Mari - 9 - disappointing because had such high expectations and looking forward to the fairy tale aspect of it but this didn’t come through - she wasn’t well read even though she was described as this - and suddenly she wrote a best selling novel! Eye roll!
