Rating: - Best read i've found in ages!! I bought this book after reading, and enjoying "The House At Riverton" - Morton's first novel. I was slightly apprehensive about "The Forgotten Garden" having read mixed reviews, but I found this book incredibly enthralling! I found it very easy to get into, and found i needed to read more and more - i had to find out what happened. This is a classic mystery, and one i whole heartedly recomend. Rating: - Outstanding This book was recommended to me by my mum who kept going on about how it was the best book she had ever read so I decided I'd give it a go after reading through the first chapter of The House At Riverton in a book shop and deciding I liked the authors style of writing. I absolutely loved the way that the book interweaved the different characters throughout the novel and didn't find it too difficult to get to grips with different chapters being set in different time frames, if anything ...

I agree with others that it reads better than the House at Riverton which I have just started but am not enjoying nearly as much. I think the ending is superb. So many good books are let down in the final chapter but this is definitely not one of them. Looking forward to reading her next one if and when it comes out. Rating: - A Big Yawn Thankfully, I found this book in a charity shop, so I didn't feel too peeved when it proved to be a dreadfully irritating read. With a writing style and storyline more akin to the the efforts you'd expect from a student who was part way through a creative writing course - Morton's book is predictable, banal, hodgepodge. Now don't laugh - I also bought The House At Riverton at the same time - well it was going cheap! I started it this week, (in sheer desperation, as I'd read everything in my book stash), ... Read More Rating: - Interesting Mystery Suffers from Length This is a good story about a family mystery that is unravelled through the perspective of different characters at different points in time. It was just a little too long though. Parts of the book aimed at drawing out the suspense killed it for me (a character just about to spill the beans on part of the mystery is interrupted by 2 pages of comments about a seafood dish...annoying!). see more
