This author reminds me of a young Maeve Binchy, high praise indeed. The story is character driven, without high drama, just a steady walk through their lives. She used the same type of pretense that Binchy uses, being that she set up a place and then used a random group of people tied to that place. Nice story with a good mix of characters.

This was such an enjoyable read that I hated to see it end. Deft interweaving of five disparate people's life stories and how those five people ended up creating a garden together in Dublin that brought needed healing to them all. My first read by this author and now I am anxious to find more of her books.
A nice story all in all and an easy read. Didn't care for the style of writing, back and forth with bits of pieces on each character. In the end, the stories are all told and it does give your a lot to think about, as there are many emotional issues covered.
