I never cried after finishing a book solely because I was heartbroken that it ended. But after reading this book I did cried, I’m still crying. I can’t believe that this magical and powerful story just came to an end. From the beginning to the very end it enchanted me, I couldn’t stop reading it. I want to start it all over again right now and then again and again. This book has been published in 30 countries and I want to collect every possible edition I can get, it may seem like an overstatement but this book means everything to me. Even though I have literally just finished it but I truly haven’t felt this way about any book before. I want to learn everything about flowers and about Alice. She is such a wonderful character, I feel like I knew her my whole life.

First I started watching the tv series without knowing it’s based on a book, after watching the first episode I realized that it’s an adaptation and since I already felt so deeply about the story I started listening to the audiobook the very next day. Actually it only took me a day to listen to the whole book. I couldn’t stop listening to it! I cannot even express how much I loved it! Also the tv adaptation is amazing very similar to the book which is the best thing ever! Only watched 3 episodes so far but incredibly excited to watch more of it!

I can’t believe that this was the author’s debut novel. I’m so grateful that she shared this incredible story to the world! Holly Ringland is an outstanding writer who deserves everything and I can’t wait to read more from her.

This book is a must read, please read it! It is a very important and beautiful story!

This book changed my life and I’m sure it can change many more. The Lost Flowers of Alice Hart is a true masterpiece. 
Unique, charming and inspiring.

I love rereading favorite books of mine but this year surprisingly this was my first reread. I think I knew deep down that I will find a book that becomes part of me, the book I want to relive over and over again the first time. My reread was truly wonderful, the most magical thing happened.
I felt like I’m reading this book for the first time again, even though I knew everything that happened I still had that magical feeling. The feeling that this book became my home.

I honestly couldn’t recommend this book enough!
