Review: Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil

Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil by John Berendt
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

I loved the first 15 or so percent of this book with its lush descriptions of Savannah. So good were they that you could feel and smell it. As the story went on though, it became (to me) a series of small episodes which didn't seem to frame a story.

It didn't grab my attention the way I had wanted it to.
