So good! It's nice to find a book outside of your normal genre that you really enjoy.

The story was OK, Not great writing, but a good story about 3 sisters in Germany in the 1890's. Their father, a glassblower in a town known for this art, passes away and the women must decide how to support themselves.

The characters seemed out of context-a little too strong and opinionated for the time period. Even with that flaw I was well on the way to giving this book 3 stars for the "cuteness" of the tale. Then WHAM-mid way through the book a really ugly piece of violence occurs -I was gob smacked-it just came from no where. I can handle "ugly" in a book, however this just seemed as though it was thrown in there for the shock factor. Before writing this review, I checked some others that are posted and was satisfied to know that it just wasn't me.

Find something else to read-

Another delightfully written book by author Petra Durst-Benning. I loved her Glassblower series and this one did not disappoint. She writes memorably characters is such a way as she feel you truly know them. I felt I had stepped off the pages of the book into the world of flowers and into the summer capital of Europe. I would recommend this book to friends and looking forward to more books from the author. .
