I have an aversion to moths...their flitting about makes me nervous. And they always want in the house! As part of my aversion therapy, I thought to read this book ;). While the moths didn't bug me (pun unintended) and their descriptions were somewhat interesting, the story itself was just okay. It tells the tale of a recluse sister (Ginny) who has stayed behind on the family estate for years and studied moths. Her sister returns home at one stage and this creates a great deal of distress for Ginny. The family's history is revealed through Ginny's eyes and this sets the stage for what will happen between the two sisters. A quick read, but I didn't come away loving this book. Perhaps my aversion to moths was present in my subconscious...
