Description
For as long as Laurel has known it, Bloom Springs, Alabama has been an ordinary town. Women gossip and sip mint juleps on their porches in the evenings, men nod respectfully to each other in the streets, and everybody goes to church on Sundays. Things seem perfect. Of course, nothing remains perfect for long. Suddenly, things begin going wrong for poor Laurel, and the cherry on top is that she must go see the woman Bloom Springs prefers to pretend doesn't exist: Widow Henrietta, who is said to kidnap children and set them to roast while she knits in her rocking chair, the children's screams providing the soundtrack to her needlework. Heartwarming and engaging, Winter Elliott's Enchanting will let you know that everything and everyone has wonder in them, you just have to look past their exterior.
