The Violets of March- Sarah Jio



Sarah Jio's debut novel, "The Violets of March" is a wonderful story, set on beautiful Bainbridge Island, in Washington.  Jio's characters are throughly believable and the plot develops beautifully.  I loved the aspect of a story within a story, via a diary.  It is such an integral part of the story, but flows WITH the story.  The lovely description of the setting of Bainbridge Island allowed me to immerse myself in the book and feel i was there.  A great story, a lovely setting.  Let yourself just enjoy it!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars
