I usually don't like when things are just way OTT, it has to be written really well or have some other redeeming quality so I can look past it.

I've added it to my list even though I still haven't read the first two. I just love Talia Hibbert on Twitter but I have a fear (although totally irrational) that her books won't be as awesome as she is and make me sad, lol. <br /><br />Good luck sorting your garden. You'll get there. I have no idea what kind of soil we have but underneath a very thin top layer is riddled with rubble and stones as the builders were lazy af when the built the houses on my estate... We're still sorting that everytime we have to do anything. *le sigh* At least the soil in the professor's veggie garden is 100% sorted now!
