The Language of Flowers tells the story of Victoria, who grew up in the foster care system in San Francisco. As she comes of age, Victoria struggles to trust and connect with others, and uses flowers to express her emotions and feelings. This is a moving story by a debut novelist and would be great for book clubs or anyone looking to read good literary fiction.

-Lindsay A.-

A bittersweet story of a young girls life of betrayal and rejection then learning to trust, to love and be loved told and symbolized in the Victorian language of flowers. Uniquely and beautifully written.
