FLOWERHEART Hardcover

"Flowerheart" by Catherine Bakewell is a whimsical and enchanting young adult fantasy novel that follows Clara, a girl whose emotions have a peculiar and dangerous effect: they cause plants to sprout and bloom uncontrollably. This seemingly magical gift becomes a burden when her uncontrolled emotions lead to her father's severe illness, with thorny vines slowly encasing his heart. Desperate to save him, Clara ventures into the fae kingdom, seeking the help of a mysterious and notoriously grumpy healer who initially refuses her. As Clara navigates the enchanting yet perilous fae lands, she must learn to understand and control her overwhelming emotions, not only to heal her father but also to uncover a deeper, ancient connection to her own unique magic and find true love in the process.
