On Sundays, She Picked Flowers is about a woman named Judith who finally escapes her mother to the countryside of Georgia. There she makes a home for herself in a cottage given to her by a relatively kind innkeeper. And it's there she begins her Sunday routine. And it's there she learns of the beings in the woods. And it's also there she meets Nemoira, the woman who changes her life in ways Judith never even thought of. This novel is an exploration of transformation, of metamorphosis, closure, retribution, nature, and healing. In this southern gothic tale, you will see Judith become undone, redone, and become in incredible ways that is human and more than human. It's a rollercoaster of emotion, dealings of familial trauma, love, and mystery. On Sundays, She Picked Flowers is a fascinating story that will keep you on your toes and make you fall in love.

"This was basically a 2-star read for me, but I dropped the second star because there were so many typos that some parts were nearly unreadable, which made the experience really frustrating.<br/><br/>I think I can see why people liked this story but it wasn't for me. Somehow despite being so short it dragged on way too long, the time skips felt pointless, and the fairy tale aspects didn't mix well with the more modern parts of the book for me. No one reported that Pontiac stolen in 17 years? No one noticed all those people dying?"
