The Poison Garden

The shifting viewpoints added layers to the story, but I wonder if that was planned from the start or developed during writing. Did it enhance the suspense or make it harder to follow?

Some characters' struggles felt so real and raw. I was surprised by how much I was rooting for them in such a grim setting—what about others' reactions?

The garden almost feels like a character itself, symbolizing hidden dangers. I'm curious whether the setting was inspired by real places or purely fictional.
