Winter Garden
Wonderful story of the promise to a father to hear the story of mother's life that brings a family together in love and respect. When a book brings tears it is worth reading.

Winter Garden honest review
Amazing book! When I first picked up the book it seemed uninteresting, but I gave it a go and I was impressed. The story has so much depth to it and the author successfully transports the reader to both Leningrad and Alaska in a way I never expected. My rating: 4 1/2 stars

only finished because book club selection
Awful, unlikable characters. Emotionally stunted adults who pretty much behave like children, and suddenly everyone just grows up at the end. Hated this book, really.

What a shame--a usually good writer
This book was far-fetched and full of unbelievable occurrences. I don’t recommend Winter Garden--unless a reader is ready for a stupid fantasy.
