pickThis has always been one of my favorite childhood stories.
So when I discovered it was turned into graphic novels, I knew I had to get my hands on it.
The adaptation is incredibly faithful and features stunning artwork.
I found myself just as immersed in this secret garden as I was in Frances Hodgson Burnett's original.
I'm thrilled that I already own part 2.

pickCarla, a world traveler with no time for love, goes to Ireland for her best friend‘s wedding. Best man and the groom‘s brother, Eamon, is tasked with picking her up in Dublin and driving her to the wedding locale to help with wedding planning. Instead, they decide to take Eamon‘s Land Rover on adventures through the Irish countryside, and to have a vacation fling. It‘s easy-breezy until it isn‘t.

pickI‘m growing to love this series: gentle, seemingly soft-touch stories with gentle humour, but covering some tough subjects at the same time.
As one of the official languages of Botswana is English, I‘m claiming this for #English_Speaking #FictionalTraveler @julieclair

pickThis was a slow burn for me and I never really got into it, even though I loved the woman Edith has become and admire the girl she was when supporting her sister when she gave birth to a baby. Such an interesting plot and I loved the Irish setting. It‘s really a good book. And yet. It‘s me. A light pick.
