review: winter bloom by tara heavey

Tara Heavey’s Winter Bloom is a tear-jerker with every character having suffered some kind of heartbreak. Although Eva, a widow with a young child, is the focus of Winter Bloom, her story is mixed in with the others who begin working on a community garden with her at the home of a persnickety old lady rumored to have murdered her husband. As the secrets of the past are revealed and the stories of each character elegantly weave together, Heavey shows how bonds between friends can provide the support needed to get through life’s difficulties.
5/5
