review 1: Although the storyline was contrived (clues were found and connections made far too easily in this novel), I enjoyed the background information of the Bloomsbury group and Vita's Sissinghurst. Wish the novel had been accompanied by photos. If you plan to read The White Garden, find a biography of Vita Sackville-West or a coffee table book of Sissinghurst to accompany your read. You will want to visualize the places and people mentioned.
review 2: Virginia Woolf is one of my favorite authors and this book is a fictionalized account of events surrounding her death. Stephanie Barron does an excellent job making you believe the events she creates are true. The way things progress makes this book exciting and very hard to put down. If you like mysteries and puzzles,... more you'll love this book. She gives you bits and pieces and weaves them together, extending one piece, then another, then weaving around to join them to complete that part of the puzzle. Wonderful! And, I just love Virginia and Stephanie's story does her justice and kind of justifies her actions that others have labeled "crazy". I definitely recommend this book. less
