Synopsis

Left on her own when her family dies in a terrible disaster, fifteen-year-old Green is haunted by loss and by the past. Struggling to survive physically and emotionally in a place where nothing seems to grow and ashes are everywhere, Green retreats into the ruined realm of her garden. But in destroying her feelings, she also begins to destroy herself, erasing the girl she'd once been as she inks darkness into her skin. It is only through a series of mysterious encounters that Green can relearn the lessons of love and begin to heal enough to tell her story.

What Do I Think?
I read this book in about a day; It was very quick. There was no plot line, really. It was kind of like a bad fan-fiction, as in: "First I did this, then I did this. Then I did this."  So on and so forth. Honestl, I wouldn't read this book again, and don't plan on reading Green Witch. Sorry, Alice Hoffman.
