#thegilmorestakebookstagram - Episode: The Prodigal Daughter Returns (underrated author) ππΌ

I love Alice Hoffman. Sure.... Practical Magic gets some nods. (Good movie, too!) And The Dovekeepers got a little air time. But sheβs written GREAT novels that donβt get much attention! She writes atmospherically. Her books almost always begin with setting the environment and how that environment creates a mood. Example from Turtle Moon (within the first paragraph): βThe air all around the town limits is so thick that sometimes a soul cannot rise and instead attaches itself to a stranger, landing right between the shoulder blades with a thud that carries no more weight than a hummingbird.β

Okay. I think I just made Turtle Moon my reread before the end of the year! π

QOTD: Do you have an authors that you just ADORE their writing style? You may not love ALL the books but appreciate the writing?
