"The Language of Flowers" by Vanessa Diffenbaugh
Victoria Jones grew
up in the foster-care system. When she turns 18 and "ages out" of
the system, she has nowhere to go, no one to rely on and few skills. What
she does have, however, is an unusual gift - the ability to use flowers to
help other people find meaning in their lives. This unforgettable novel
beautifully weaves past and present, creating a vivid portrait of a woman
whose gift helps her change the lives of others even as she struggles to
overcome her own troubled past.
