I judged this book by the cover. First I saw a dragonfly and then, in large letters, the name Alice Hoffman. My hand reached for it immediately. I love Alice Hoffman who wrote Dovekeepers, Practical Magic, and The Red Garden. She is a magical writer and this book was no exception. This book has a villain named Hollis. At first you think that maybe he's misunderstood or that people are making false assumptions against him because he's from a poor family. This is a story about how reckless and destructive love can be sometimes. Good old Alice Hoffman. She hasn't written a book I haven't liked.
