Book: The Drowning Season

Title: The Drowning Season
Author: Alice Hoffman
Thoughts: Yes, another Hoffman I hadn't read. I loved this one. Like a lot of her other work, this was a moving story told with a very fairy-tale-esque tone. Hoffman has a beautiful way with magic realism. I particularly enjoyed the way the histories were interwoven with the main narrative. I think I will be sad when I've read all of Hoffman's books and have to wait like everyone else for new ones to come out.
