Reviews
"A compelling and human cast of characters, full of humor, heart, heartbreak, and the language of flowers make this perfect for fans of Marian Keyes."--Booklist "All human life is in The Flower Arrangement and is portrayed with great tenderness by Ella Griffin, who offers an astonishing insight into people...The writing is exquisite and I cared deeply about the characters."--Marian Keyes, Good Housekeeping (UK) "Griffin's charming and insightful third novel (after The Heart Whisperer and Postcards from the Heart) examines how random lives are connected, like characters in a Raymond Carver story. For fans of women's fiction, especially those who enjoy other Irish writers such as Marian Keyes and Cathy Kelly."--Library Journal "Ella Griffin's beautiful writing enables you to feel like you are quite literally stepping into the fragrant surroundings of Blossom & Grow."--Novelicious.com "One of the most charming books I have ever read."--Reviewedthebook.co.uk "A pleasure to read--assured, witty, and highly likeable."--Irish Mail on Sunday "This beautifully written story explores the joys and sorrows of Lara, who opens a flower shop in the heart of Dublin following the death of her baby son."--Candis Magazine (UK) "This is a book to inspire. Inspire you to think positive thoughts, never judge people by appearances and learn to forgive."--BleachHouse Library
