Summary: As long as it's not in a child's hands....BRAVO!
Comment: I've read all prior comments and it seems most people do not feel that Return to the Secret Garden contained the magic that the first did. I have to disagree. The key to recognizing this magic is an open mind. Magic can't exist in adults in the same way it does children. It takes on new forms. Mary, Colin, and Dickon grew up past the age of 11 and after that point the world quickly became an ugly place. The magic of the Secret Garden was strong but not even the joy of childhood can stand against a harsh reality for long. A lot of awful things happen to our 3 favorite friends, and it really s**ks. But don't say that a person who experiences "magic" as a child can not become a totally opposite person in a matter of years. It happened to me. As long as you can look past the struggles of the trio, and see the magic inside them fighting to break through, you will love this book. I couldn't put it down, and yes at times it was shocking and even revolting, but asi es vida!

Summary: great book, terrible ending
Comment: The book began quite promising and I was quite absorbed with it, despite the millions of cliches. I enjoyed wholly until the last hundred pages when the Fates turned their tide and made the last 20 years of their lives hell. Such a horrible thing to happen to such wonderful characters. Thinking about The Secret Garden made me so depressed for days after reading it.

Summary: great book, terrible ending
Comment: The book was quite good until the very end. While I found some of the things cliche, I enjoyed it until the very end when it became wholly depressing. I find it hard to believe that such horrible things would happen to the three and after reading the book, I was quite sad for days.
