Return to the Secret Garden - Susan Moody

Susan Moody's sequel to the classic The Secret Garden is currently ranked at 2.69 stars on Goodreads. It takes us from the battlefields of France to India under the occupation of Britain. Susan Moody is also known, of course, for her novelisation of the Nescafe Gold Blend advertisements (RIP Anthony Stewart Head)

To defend this book we have none other than the OG himself: G!

 

In our show we take a look at the books that everyone seems to hate. We stand up for mocked and derided literature, a lone defender doing their best to fight the conditioned ideas of the court of public opinion.

Every episode a member of the group has to convince the rest of us that their assigned book has been unfairly judged. As a benchmark we're using goodreads.com, anything on their site with at least 100 reviews and a rating of less than 3 stars is, we think, deserving of a fair appeal hearing.
