Entertaining

I bought this book based on the reviews. While it did keep my interest all the way through, I think more detail was needed for the main characters. I think the book had a lot to offer, but didn't deliver and rushed to end. It is a quick read and will keep your attention, just not as good as some of the reviews stated.


Loved it!

Great book, I didn't want it to end. I'm passing the book on to all my friends so they can enjoy it too.

What an enthralling story!

The Butterfly House is a book about four women, each strong and weak in their own ways. Following the childhood friendship of two little girls into adulthood, we learn about the journeys each of the quartet must take. The actions of one night dramatically changes their paths, and they must grow in new directions if they hope to survive.

Compelling Read

I work at a bookstore and I'm always looking for the next great book to recommend to my customers and with The Butterfly House I found one. This book hooked me from page 1 and never let me go. The story of best friends and their mothers and love and loss all weave together in this fantastic story. Well-written and delightful, I recommend this to anyone who enjoys a good cry at the end.

As a child, Bobbie Lee found refuge from her lonely life at her best friend's house. Rockhaven was a place of magic, colored by the butterflies that Cincy Jaines's mother, Lenora, studied. Her friendship with Cincy and Lenora soon became Bobbie's compass. But the tangled intimacies between them began to unravel, and in one night, Rockhaven became a place of unspeakable tragedy.

Now, a decade later, the long shadows of that night continue to haunt Bobbie, despite her attempts to hide from the past. When a stranger with ties to Lenora and Cincy arrives at her doorstep, she is forced to confront the memories she has tried to avoid, and the dark secret at the heart of the tragedy slowly emerges.
