Finally a novel that encapsulates all of my passions! If you love old buildings, gardens, art and nostalgia, this is a must read!
couldn't put it down!!
Terrific read with strong feminine characters
Loved this book. I felt the characters were well drawn. The gardens and the statues became very real. I wanted to be there.
Mysterious statues in a Welsh garden draw the reader into a wonderful story web about the people living and working on the Plas Eden estate. Great cast of characters, an intriguing mystery from the past and beautiful descriptions of place made this an unputdownable read for me.
A beautiful story, wonderfully told.
I loved this book. Juliet Greenwood as a way of weaving character and setting together that entices a reader in and keeps them hooked.
Excellent
Loved the book, got a real feel for the story setting and characters were vividly 'painted', really felt I was there amongst the statues and in the coffee shop, plus I enjoyed soaking up the real-life atmosphere in Plas Brondanw gardens after finishing the book.
I don't usually read fiction, but this book has changed that. Eden's Garden is intriguing, magical and utterly delightful.
Juliet Greenwood has created a magical world that would make everybody want to visit Eden's Garden and experience the enchanted word
